Michael's Story
Life
I found happiness by moving away from the drama that surrounds my family and making my own way. I have been lucky to find the right career,after many attempts. Pretty easy to be happy when those items are dealt with, the hard part is getting there.
School
I really hated school and the social divisions that existed there, I am not even sure if most people would even know I was in their class. I left a year early and joined the military and never attended any reunions.
The most inspiring teacher to me was Mr. Sheets, he was my first football coach when I first moved to Mo. from Indiana. He inspired me by noticing that I existed and that I could make an imapct.
My biggest crush was a secret crush and it was for Deanne Burroughs, and I don't think she ever knew it. But then there are allot of very hot women that went to Raytown and Ray South that I had crushes on. If you care to know more, or if you were/are on that list just ask.
I wouldn't want to do it all over again, because I didn't really enjoy it the first time around. However I would do it again only to tell some of those women I was interested in them, I wa...Expand for more
s way too shy back then, and to set one thing right I did wrong the day I left school.
College
It was tough I was the oldman in the class and I was doing a dual degree 18 credit hour barrage straight through to the end plus working a job. I was so busy I barely remember what happened.
Workplace
My career has never been better, I am self employed, I work from home in the entertainment industry as a graphic artistic and 3D modeller and I also run a Hydro-Organic farm as well. My arrangement is better than retirement and I plan to do this for a long time. I hope all of you have found a career with jobs you love because it sure makes life much easier and allot more fun.
Military
I left school a year early to enter military service mostly to get out of the craziness that was my homelife. It was both the best and worst decision I ever made. The military establishment sucks, the discipline was good for me though and I met some very cool people that helped outweigh the morons I also met during my time in.
I am looking for former members of CSC 2/505 I have a group setup on my Facebook page. To try and get us all together.
