Melissa's Story
Wow...I don't know where to begin here! I guess the first thing to say is that I turned out 100% different than I (or anyone else) would have expected back in 1988! I was kind of quiet in school, but was in cosmetology and played music, so I had kind of a wild look, but wasn't really a party girl. Suffice it to say I missed out on the opportunity to make more good friends than I did, and I've always regretted that.
About that cosmetology class and side hobby of playing guitar, most people are shocked to know that I graduated in with honors from UNC Charlotte with a degree in Accounting. I've been fortunate enough to have a very successful career and now operate independently working with small businesses.
I've never married, but am currently engaged to a wonderful man! I have no human ...Expand for more
children, but do have 4-legged children that I couldn't love any more if they were human!
My life has been a bit of a roller coaster and I never dreamed I wound end up living a life so different from what I envisioned in my younger years, but believe I have wound up in the right place. I also have been working on a memoir style book after much encouragement over the years.
I'm sad to say that I haven't kept in touch with anyone from high school. Like I said, for a while life was a roller coaster, and unfortunately I lost contact with everyone throughout those years. I would love to reconnect with others who went to school with me and maybe find some of my old school friends, or make some new ones that I missed out on back then! Please feel free to contact me - I'd love to hear from you.
