Kristen's Story
AFTER I GRADUATED FROM HS , I WAS ENLISTED IN THE DELAYED ENTRY PROGRAM FOR THE AIR FORCE AND ENTERED THAT DECEMBER. WAS IN FOR FOUR YRS. I GOT ORDERS FOR THE PHILIPPINES, AND I WAS SO GREEN, I SAID, WHAT WORLD IS THAT IN AND HOW DO I GET THERE? I WAS SCARED BUT HAD A GREAT JOB, I SANG IN THE POP ROCK BAND WITH THE AIR FORCE. I TRAVELED ALL THE TIME EVEN SAW ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS WITH I WENT TO JAPAN. BOY IT WAS UNREAL SEEING HIM HERE. I'VE ALWAYS KEPT TO MYSELF AND WOULDNT DATE ANYONE I WENT TO SCHOOL WITH. I DID DATE LEE HASTINGS FROM ANOTHER SCHOOL. ANYWAY, AFTER THE AIR FORCE I WENT BACK TO MEMPHIS. THEN I WAS GOING TO SCHOOL AND WORKING TWO JOBS AND MY DAD,WHO LEFT WHEN I WAS 4 YRS OLD WANTED TO HELP BY LETTING ME STAY WITH HIM AND HIS WIFE AND JUST WORK PARTTIME AND GO TO SCHOOL FULL-TIME.I HAD TO MOVE TO MIDLAND,TX. HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A BRAIN TUMOR A MONTH LATER AND PASSED SHORTLY AFTER. I THEN MARRIED A PILOT FOR WHERE I WORKED , HE WAS FROM LAS VEGAS AND THAT'S HOW I GOT HERE. I MARRIED HIM BECAUSE HE WAS THERE FOR ME TWHEN MY FATHER DIED AND I WAS GRAT...Expand for more
EFUL. WE WENT OUT SEPARATE WAYS, IT WASN'T FAIR TO HIM. THEN I WENT TO HAWAII AND JACKSOVILLE,FL ,WHICH I WAS TOLD WAS SUCH A CHRISTIAN TOWN. ARE U KIDDING ME? I WAS ATTACKED DOING MY JOB AND NEVER SAW OR READ ABOUT SO MUCH TIME. TED BUNDY WAS EXECUTED NOT TOO FAR FROM THERE. I THINK I'M A GOOD PERSON, I TRY TO BE. SHY, AT TIMES, IF SOMEONE TRIES TO GET TOO CLOSE IT CAN FREAK ME OUT. THE MOST VALUABLE THING ABOUT BE IS MY SENSE OF LOYALTY AND REMAINS SO TODAY. I MISS SOME OF MY OLD CLASSMATES LIKE DON GENTRY, WHEN HE WASNT TRYING TO BE A JOKESTER AND JUST HIMSELF. I LIKED DARRYL MOORE BUT FELT MAYBE HE WAS TOO IN LOVE WITH HMSELF. MAYBE MY PERCEPTION WAS WRONG BUT THATS WHAT I FELT. ONE THING ALOT OF U PROBABLY HAVE BY NOW IS CHILDREN WHICH IS GREAT! I CAN'T HAVE CHILDREN ALTHOUGH MY TWIN LISA HAS A DAUGHTER. THAT'S KIND OF ISOLATED ME AND MADE ME FEEL DIFFERENT BUT THERE IS A REASON FOR EVERYTHING, AND THESE DAYS IF U SCREW IT UP ITS MAJOR. BUT, I STILL WANT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL AND KEEP LEARNING. THAT'S SOMETHING WE ARE ALL EQUAL ACT IS OUR ABILITY TO BE MORE.
