Valerie's Story

Life My Spouse While going to Wayne State, we both had lunch with his friend, my brother. My Kids My son is a very intelligent and caring person. He enjoys learning new things, but doesn't like high school as much as he liked junior high. He is still quite an artist and does wonderful watercolors. My Job Lots of computer work. I do website maintenance, mapmaking and databases. I also do occupational injury surveys. It's very interesting and fun most of the time. My husband works in an oil refinery--the best job he could get with a bachelor's degree in Geology in 1976. The people he works with are ;< & ? Can't complain about the salary though. It sure helps pay the bills. At Christmas, we put ornaments on 4 trees! With 5 smaller ones all around the house. It looks wonderful!! Christmas is by far my favorite holiday!!! The actors I enjoy are Johnny Depp, Al Pacino, Russ Tamblyn, Anthony Geary, Maurice Benard, Robert Redford, Meg Ryan, Julia Roberts, Elizabeth Taylor, Amber Tamblyn, America Ferrera. I love watching Monk, Ugly Betty, Psych, Pushing Daisies, General Hospital. I scrapbook whenever I can and I make a lot of my own greeting cards. I do not enjoy computer work very much, especially when I have to sit a try to read all of my emails--mostly the spam variety. I still have over 100 every time I sit down at the computer--which is o...Expand for more
nly once a week. I hope to find old friends via this website--but so far they haven't found me. College I went to three colleges. Wayne State University, The University of Michigan-Dearborn and West Oahu College, University of Hawaii. The best by far was West Oahu College, as that is where I finally received my Bachelor's Degree in the Social Sciences with a major in Psychology. I lived in Hawaii for nine years total, 8 were spent on Oahu and 1 was spent on Kauai. Anyway, I digress--West Oahu had the best professor--Dr. Lynne Garnett. She really made us think and debate topics close to our hearts. I wouldn't trade going there with going anywhere else! If I went to that reunion, I would say that the college experience there helped me grow and become the person I am today. Also, without the year of Statistics, I wouldn't be the Economist I am today! I am thankful for the experiences at the other two colleges as they helped me decide 1) not to get into another huge college where you are only known by a number and 2) pick a college close to where you live so you can take the bus. Also, taking a variety of courses helped me learn more than I would have had I just taken a straight shot through a career choice. At Wayne State, I remember going across the campus to eat at the cafeteria and eating their grilled cheese with ham and relish sandwiches, yum!
