Brenda's Story
Life
I AM STILL A SINGLE PARENT OF X 3 WONDERFUL KIDS TWO OF WHICH ATTENDED COLLEGE MY SON TAVARUS 26, ATTENDED OLE MISS AND PLAYED FOOTBALL WHILE MY DAUGHTER ALICIA 24ATTENDS USM AFTER GRADUATING FROM PRCC AND PLAYING FASTPITCH SOFTBALL. THEY BOTH MAJORED IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE LIKE I DID ALONG WITH EARNING A DEGREE IN PSYCHOLOGY. I ALSO AM CONSTANTLY CHASING A VERY ACTIVE 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, ZIARRIA WHO ENJOYS BEING A CHEERLEADER, DANCING, BEING A CLOWN, AND MEETS NO STRANGER EVERYONE SAYS SHE HAS BEEN HERE BEFORE. I AM A MEMBER OF ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY AND MY SON PLEDGED PHI BETA SIGMA FRATERNITY. AFTER COLLEGE I BEGAN WORK IN THE MENTAL HEALTH FIELD WORKING WITH CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH MENTAL / BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS. WORK AND MY FAMILY KEEP ME PRETTY BUSY THESE DAYS.BUT I WOULD LIKE TO RE-CONNECT WITH SOME OLD CLASSMATES OR FRIENDS I ACTUALLY ENJOYED BEING AROUND.
School
HIGH SCHOOL WAS NOT REALLY FUN FOR ME ALTHOUGH I DID HAVE SOME NICE MEMORIES. I DID ENJOY SPORTS AND HAD A FEW ASSOCIATES WHO COULD BE COUNTED ON TO HAVE MY BACK.MY FAVORITE TEACHER WAS MS. BOHANNON BECAUSE SHE TOLD IT LIKE IT WAS. THERE ARE SOMETHINGS I WOULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY IF I COULD RELIVE MY HIGH SCHOOL YEARS BUT FOR THE MOST PART I'M GLAD THAT IT IS BEHIND ME.I ALSO LIKED COACH TREST, COACH WALKER, AND COACH ANDY EVANS WHILE IN SCHOOL.AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT OTHER THAN THE CLASS OF 1983 WAS THE BEST CLASS TO WALK THE HALLS OF WAYNESBORO CENTRAL HIGH EVER!!!
College
I GRADUATED FROM JCJC IN 1986 GOING ON TO PURSUE A DEGREE IN CRIMINAL ...Expand for more
JUSTICE AT USM. I RECEIVED MY BS DEGREE IN 1988 AND WENT ON TO OBTAIN MY BS DEGREE IN PSYCHOLOGY IN 1991.WHILE IN COLLEGE I WAS A MEMBER OF THE STUDENT ALUMNI ASSOCIATION,IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE ASSOCIATION, AND BECAME A MEMBER OF ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY, INCORPORATED. I HELD OFFICES IN THESE ORGANIZATIONS AS WELL. I REALLY ENJOYED MY COLLEGE DAYS AND WOULD NOT TRADE THEM FOR ANYTHING. I REALLY MET SOME WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND LEARNED ALOT. I PLAN ON RETURNING SOON TO OBTAIN MY MASTER'S DEGREE.
Workplace
SINCE WORKING PART-TIME ON CAMPUS IN THE COMMONS AND AT DOMINO'S PIZZA. I HAVE BEEN EMPLOYED AT PINE GROVE CHILD AND ADOLESCENT DAY TREATMENT PROGRAM. FIRST AS A CLINICAL ASSISTANT AND NOW AS A COUNSELOR ASSOCIATE. I DO DIFFERENT GROUPS WITH KIDS AGE 5 TO 18. THEY HAVE MENTAL, EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS THAT KEEP THEM FROM BEING ABLE TO FUNCTION IN A REGULAR SCHOOL SETTING. I WORK 40 HOURS A WEEK AND EVERY 7TH SUNDAY. THE JOB IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT EVERYDAY AND THE KIDS KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES. IS IS DEFINITELY NOT A JOB FOR SOMEONE WHO CAN NOT TAKE DIFFERENT MOOD SWINGS CONSTANTLY, HAVING TO BREAK UP ALTERCATIONS, AND BEING CALLED EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN SOMETIME EXCEPT YOUR NAME. I ENJOY MY JOB AND I AM LOOKING TO RELOCATE TO A DIFFERENT STATE TO CONTINUE WORKING IN THE SAME FIELD SO THAT I CAN CONTINUE TO MOVE UP THE JOB LADDER AND MAKE MORE FINANCIALLY. I HAVE BEEN EMPLOYED THERE SINCE 8/31/92. WHILE WORKING THERE FOR AWHILE I WAS ALSO WORKING AT DOMINO'S PIZZA AS A CSR ANSWERING PHONES, TAKING ORDERS, AND BOXING PIZZAS WHICH WA ALSO FUN.
