Vanessa's Story

Life After graduating from High School, I attended Cottey College in Nevada, MO (a 2 year college) I then went to Missouri Western State College and graduated in May 2002 with a degree in Business Management. In 2004, I went back to school for Massage Therapy. I married Eric Steinman, May 27,2000 in St. Joseph, MO. We own and run Empire Investments an investment company and Allright Guttering a guttering company. I make bath products and have them in several stores. The product line is called Missouri Finds, some of the items I make include: Sugar Scrubs, Salt Scrubs, Lotion Bars, Lip Balms, Body Wash and Body Lotion. I bet your wondering why I am in St. Joseph; well do you remember Kristi Fritz (Doles) we went to school with her 7th-9th grade her sister Tanya was the President when we were freshmen, anyway she lived here and she said there was a college here, so I transferred. I try to go to Oregon at least once a year, to visit friends and family. All of Eric’s family lives around here. We have 2 Cats Shelton and Fluffers and are looking forward to having Children in the next few years. If your wondering where "Vanessa" came from, it's my middle name, I just got tired of telling people I really was a "Jenny" and not a "Jennifer", Just incase you were wondering. I would love to hear from you, send me a message. College I loved Cottey! I loved everything about it. I had a great Roomie - Ayshea, and wonderful Suite mates Of Co-Min: Jess, Sarah, Brenda, Amy, Mer, Kelly, E and Ryan...you were all the greatest!!! I remember many late nights...as Jess and I would leave notes on our door..."A date with Neal” We were at Neal Hall working hard on our projects, me hunched over my loom and Jess messing around with clay. Ayshea and I on our Chocolate run...you know it helps you study...so we were told…I think we hit every ha...Expand for more
ll since our machine was broken in Robertson Hall. Remember to vote for Pin...did 5 and I drive you crazy with that? I know that we drove Everyone crazy with 5. We were both called 5, we would say "see you in 5, you pick which one.... 5 mins, 5 hours, 5 days..." And yes, We STILL call each other 5...It’s our names. I loved my Spuh my freshman year: Sarah and my Re-Spuh: Carrie my Senior year. Our many walks to McDonalds with Beth so she could get her cheeseburgers with no meat. The slugs that crawled in to our cups that we stashed in some bushes when we went to a movie...and who could forget "The Man in Black" I dressed in black and scared Brenda in the middle of the night, and Jess is laughing into her pillow trying not to blow it. Our many trips to Kansas where it was legal to drink, but of course we didn't have any money to drink at the bars so we started off in the suite...and of course we went on ladies night when it was free. 7pm… this was the “Prized” phone time, when the cost of a phone call went to night rate, We would all rush to the board and write our name on the list for our 30 mins of phone time….10 Girls, 1 phone and it wasn’t even a cordless! Cottey is were I developed the "Jenny study method" cramming 10 mins before a test...it worked, I think that several suite mates used this method. How can you forget Chef Michaels cooking.....it was so good. Jess and I went back for founders in 2005, the food was just as good as it was when we were there. Remember our freshman year when a bunch of us pulled off a Duck Prank before the game even started...man were are Seniors mad. “Cottey Friends will always be until the end of time” ...Do you ever find your self busting into a Cottey Song? Do you ever smell your clean clothes and have a flashback to what they smelled like washed in Nevada water? That's a smell I don' miss.
