Bonnie's Story

I would say that after high school I changed a lot. I was one of those late bloomers. I was always very thin and as we know skinny wasn't so exciting when we were in school. Within a few years I actually got a cute figure and my self esteem improved immensely. My looks changed so I finally felt attractive and was no longer self conscious. Perhaps in high school lots of us felt that way, but there were always the cute guys and gals that were considered the in group. I'm still 5'4", slim and have medium auburn hair. I think I still look young for our age, so that helps a lot. I wasn't part of that in group, but I did have many friends and was very involved in sports, baseball, volleyball, basketball and even ping pong. I loved to dance and actually lots of girls would ask me to teach them the new dances. So life in high school really for me still has fond memories. After school, attended some college and studied accounting as I was always good at math. I have worked my way up to being an office manager and doing accounting which has worked out extremely well. I have done a lot of traveling in Mexico and been to most of the big cities and resorts. I have also been to the Caribbean, Italy, Hawaii and different parts of the U.S. When I semi retire, plan to do a lot more. I still want to spend time in Greece, Spain & England. On a personal level, I have never married or had children. In some ways, I miss having children. I have had some very loving long term relationships and have been in one now for over 15 years. My life has been quite interesting, exciting and since I am a very optimistic person, I will say I can't complain. My glass is always half full. I have two sisters Darlene and Nancy who still live in the Chic...Expand for more
ago area and in fact both are involved in long term relationships with Mather and Senn guys. I am very close to both of them. The teachers used to always seem to know we were sisters just by our smiles. It actually was nice in those days. I now live in Tarzana, CA.for the past 30 years. In 1978 I decided I had enough of the snow, wind and cold and moved out here. As a young child my family lived here for 4 years and I always loved California. The weather meshes with my personality. I love the sun and beach and that you can do so many different things here. Life has been good. I own my own townhouse and survived the high real estate prices. The rents here are outrageous. I also spend a lot of time in Rancho Mirage near Palm Springs. My boyfriend has a beautiful home there and on week-ends we are there in two hours to just sit back, relax, visit with friends and go out for dinner. Since moving to California I have managed to make so many great friends from all over the U.S. I also have stayed friends with people from our neighborhood who have also moved out here. I still maintain my friendships with people from Chicago whether they are still there or have moved elsewhere too. For me there is nothing more important than having good friends. So any of you Classmates out there who want to just drop me a note, I would love to hear from you. Not everyone I would like to hear from is signed up, so maybe if you are in touch with them, convince them that this could be fun. Let's have another Reunion. I've been to all of them and always had the best time. People have changed, they've become nicer and friendlier. Our 40th was really great. I took my sister Nancy and she had a ball too. SO, EVERYONE, DROP ME A NOTE!!! BONNIE SCHWAB
