Kenyatta's Story

Life I didnt realize that the same bio is read by all classes. So I fiqured I would edit this to try and fit all that would read it and know. Many of you from East Orange probably wont remember me. Princeton St. East Orange, I went to Washington Elementary my best friends was Renee Foreman, Cheryl Myricks, Vickie Mabry, Brenda Myricks (even though we had issues.) And my girl Dawn Hargrave. We travel the same circle since 4th grade. Terrorizing the neighborhood. We graduated and prepared ourselves for Milddle School "VLD". Some I remember Willie Ikner, Earl, Irene Brown, Hazel and others that would probably take up the characters. Oh well but it was fun. Then I moved to Orange and attended Orange Middle, there was to many to name. Always being sent to the office Mr D., Michelle,Camille, Michael Thurston. Troy C., Wayne R. Andre, the list goes on and on.I often reminence about the times we had. Especially aftenoon walks home and stopping to Chicken Delight to get a dollar worth of chicken wings to eat on the way home. But that's for other times to talk about. Then back to East Orange High School where I had Mr West for Math, John Mithchell was in my science class and my heart. I didnt stay long, January of "78" I proceeded to Science High. Where I knew Lessel (my life time friend), Shawn, RonR,RonT,Lisa C, Gail, Sharon Deb T, Kathy and again the list goes on and on. After 20yrs, leaving Science High life has been a challenge, I have to difinetly say "no" to the question "Do you know where your going to?" (Diana Ross) I have been married, divorced, had some good friends along the way,(can't forget Quack). I am the mother of 4 "I must say" handsome boys. Shea, Shawn, Shem,and Yusef. Ive since move to the big state of Georgia in a small city called Conyers just 20 mins east of Atlanta. I miss home every onc...Expand for more
e in a while, but I enjoy living here better. Working in the HR department of Philips Consumer Electronics "yes" Philips/Magnovox king of the flatscreen tv, partners of Philips Arena. GO HAWKS!?!?!? Well as you can tell this could go on and on, but I hope to tell you personally one day, when you reach out and touch. (Update) I will be getting married May 15, 2005. to Paul Bates (DENBY HIGH, DETROIT, MI) Grandmother to one precious little girl Nikiaya (see photos) 2/3/08 - Since last entry I have to say life has change. Now a grandmother of two, Kenyatta II, loving life. My existence her on classmates has reunited me with so many and I have enjoy the reunion immensely stay in touch, drop a line of hello. 11/7/09- life is funny, it allows you to go along thinking you are significant, when along we are just a pixel in the world. I have been a way from classmates a year. and when I returned, nothing had changed. It is true what they say life is what you put in to it. A few people dropped in but they didn't stay. Havent heard from anyone that would matter. Because we all go on with our busy life, day by day and if we just happen to get off this busstop and see what someone is doing then we make a small difference. Life truely moves on. I would like to take these few remaining characters to say. I have enjoyed my life so far the ups and downs have made me stronger, not always prepared. I look forward to what it has to bring facing up to challenges some tougher than others. For anyone I have every stopped and said hello to, to everyone who just wanted to see what I was up to. To all I shared a moment with. Thank you for being (one way or another) part of my pixel. Part of my life and made it so much more. To my family I love you. and always will.
