Tonja's Story
I don't really know what or how my classmates remember me as.
I hope I wasn't mean or rude to ANYbody.
A friend and I made up a song about Campbell Soup, I don't even like soup but I still remember the song today.
My favorite way to relax is 1) pray for patience, guidance, and understanding and 2) have a cocktail.
The wildest thing I ever did in School was not return after lunch with 5 other girls in Elementary School. The substitute was drunk and we took advantage of it.
My in school hero was Ms. Harriet Turner...Expand for more
from Willard School. She was a strict, disciplinarian who really taught not just worked.
The one thing about me that I think would really surprise, those that knew me in high school, is that I gained weight. I was soooo skinny. Now, I'm fluffy.
My first full time job was at Spiegel's. I was a Credit Accounting Correspondent. I made $1.25 per hour and worked from January, right after graduation, until September saving 3 paychecks a month to go to College because I didn't see working at Spiegel's as my future.
