Susan's Story
I graduated one year early in 1975 (not because I'm smart. It was either graduate early or drop out. I hated High School). Most of the people I remember are in the class of 1976 (the year I should have graduated). I was a band geek. I was picked on and ridiculed by kids that did not even know me, because I was quiet. I was not shy, I was just not social with a crowd that did not know or appreciate me. I was actually pretty wild. I hung out with my older brother's crowd from San Pedro and got into all kinds of trouble. It was fun! Those days are long gone though. Now I am a busy hard working mom. I have been married for 34 years and have a 16 year old daughter. I have been a Registered Nurse for 25 years. My dad is 81 years old and is doing well.

died unexpectedly one month apart in the year 2000. I was diagnosed with Cancer a few months later in 2001. I'm still here. To stay strong and avoid giving in to the Cancer, I worked through the nine months of Chemotherapy and Radiation treatments. After surviving Cancer, I have a greater appreciation for life. I took up riding Motorcycles. I take one day at a time and enjoy it. I like to stay very busy. I do not hold any grudges about being bullied as a kid. I'm actually thankful. The bullying allowed me to develop into an extroverted, strong-willed, speak up, don't put up with any bulls... type of person. I am very bold. I Would love to talk with former classmates, even the former bullies. Send me a message here or to: My Space Profile under Susan Field Burton. Today is 6/18/09.
