Linda Cook:  

worry with being Miss Personality or queen of the school. Just wanted to get through it and out of it, and get on with life. While at West, I loved Photography, Drama( mainly stagecraft), other arts, and health type classes. did not care much about the dances, football, or other sort of activities. I did my time there, would raise havoc if I saw the need, and was loyal to my friends, some people thought I knew how many tiles were on the floor in the halls as, I usually walked around looking at the floor... ;) I currently live in NYS, and am planning to go back to my southlands of GA very soon, and continue this journey of life. I think of returning to AZ, but if I do it will be only for a short visit, and hopefully not in the Phoenix area... way too big for me. My favorite places in the state, were Payso, Sedona, Flagstaff, Perscott, and Camp Verde, Tucson was ok, but fear it is too big now, not to mention probably a bit dicey. Loved the Grand Canyon, but would not want a steady diet of it, too touristy. I miss the skies, and the sunsets, and the freedom Az once had. Pity the state grew up. . If I won $100 million, I'd give 30% of it to various people and causes, then spend the rest on family, planning and enjoying life. My current age is 62. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be much the same and happy. I was so completely wrong.. Finding oneself is quite a journey, but should be pursued early on., and never left behind.
