Carolyn's Story
How do you hope old friends remember you, well that is easy since I am in touch with the friends I hung around with in high school. We, Cindy, Terri, Meg, and Debbie get together as often as we can. Since Meg lives in the midwest, we meet at either Cindy or Terru's house for dinner whenever Meg is in town.

Then I worked full and part-time jobs simultaneously to be able to live on my own and pay for my college expenses). In the long run it was all worth it because after earning my BA in English Education, I returned the next summer and earned certification in Social Studies. Three years later I had my MA in Multicultural Education and gained two more certifications. By having to pay my own way, I learned after earning my BA that I could achieve anything if I was determined to do it.
