Mr.Thomas from Columbia/ Mr.Bruford from Desalines/ Mr.Herman Morgan (music) Mr.Lemon (biology) from Central High/ Daddy Rich (music) Mississippi Valley/ I know that i'm Blessed to have strong role models who molded my dreams. Emotionally in school, I was stupid and very much the girl crazied young man. The happiest time was being in the band room in Central High. The craziest memory is jumping out of the second story school window to buy fried rice from Bing Lau on Grand Ave!!! The biggest regret is not being smart enough to know who my real friends were back then. "Truth has a Sound...You just have to Listen!!" College Mississippi Valley State was my first time living away from home. The frogs alone were eye opening!!!:-) I met some of the Greatest Musicians at that school!!! Workplace I've only been a Musician!! Thank You GOD!!! Military I'm too Old to fight!! We can get a fish samich and talk it out!!! LOL
