Elizabeth's Story
Life
I can't believe its been 30 years since high school graduation - where does the time go? Of course, I've been pretty busy ever since. Working, married, and having a child.......My son, Matthew is just now finishing 7th grade. He attends middle school and will be in 8th grade next year (the top of the heap again!) High school in No. CA starts in 9th grade. I told him he could have a last day of school BBQ and pool party - guess whos the BBQ'er is?? Yep, yours truly. Actually love having parties and the kids over.....
I've been married to Steve since 1980 so this June we will be celebrating our wedding anniversary with a cruise to the Bahamas, U.S. Virgin Islands. We have never been on a cruise before and are looking forward to it. We were mere children when we married! Who would have thought getting married in Las Vegas in 1980 and guess what song was playing...."The Long Run" by the Eagles. Thats what our friends played...do you think they thought it would last????
After the cruise we are going to San Diego and Irvine (Steve's Dad lives in Irvine). Matt always spends some summertime on the beaches down south...before heading home. I want to try and visit some friends too but not sure if we will have the time.
School
It has been so long - I really didn't have a crush in school. I did have a steady boyfriend though who eventually turned out to be not a very nice person and someone that I haven't seen in 25 years (which is A-OK with me).
However, I did meet someone from my high school days that I really didn't know in school. We met a couple years out of high school. We were young at the time and were bas...Expand for more
ically enjoying our youth that nothing ever came of it. I remember having such a great time with this person that last summer....This is my last memory of my time in Corona.......
I don't remember any of my teachers either - I was one of those people who couldn't wait to get out of high school that I graduated mid-term of my senior year. I was already going to Fullerton JC. I had such drive back then to get ahead!!
One of the things that I regret most is that I didn't get a chance to go to my high school PROM. At that time I didn't have a boyfriend and no-one bothered to ask me if I wanted to go.....that would have been a nice memory, oh well.
College
Graduated from CSUS in 1997. A little late, but I got it done!
Workplace
I'm working at Electronic Data Systems (EDS) an IT services company - I've only been here a little over a year, but I worked for EDS back in 1985 as a computer operator when I first started my IT career. I've been working in software development for about 20 years now. I'm a senior project analyst who works with both the business and the technical group. I'm the person who conveys the business requirements to the programmer (not too exciting!)
I'm working on getting the skills necessary to work as an interior designer as my second career. Since I don't plan on quitting my day job at the moment I'm taking college courses at night just a couple nights a week. Of course, I'm on break now because its June. I actually started taking courses for fun and because I'm constantly working on my house - doing remodeling, etc. and it may actually turn into something more because I'm enjoying it so much.
