Maria's Story
Life
I've chosen to participate in this bio because I talk to too few people with whom I shared a very important time in my life, high school. Having 3 kids in college now, I realize that I should have done a better job of staying in touch. I realize you can't be best friends with everyone, but I am curious to see how some people "turned out."
Who we all were back in '74 is part of who we are today. There's an old saying about old friends being the best. We shared similar economic and social backgrounds, and I would find it interesting to see how we each bettered our individual lives. I wish more of you would fill out the bios!
School
I do reg...Expand for more
ret not having taken full advantage of what high school had to offer. I was too wild, partied too much, and had no vision of my future. It took me a long time to figure all of this out. Having kids put me on the right track. I went back to college and graduated in 1995. I wish I was more career-minded and goal-oriented back then, I could have saved a lot of down time!
The last few years (2005-2007) were pretty bad; a victim of Michigan's economy. To find work I've had to move out or state, to GA. I'm now gainfully employed, working in a great environment. I wish I could get in touch with old friends. My email address: mrivera300 at aol dot com.
