Tawna's Story
Life
I had very few friends in my life, with the few I had being of the most unusual variety: a witch, a homosexual, people from other countries, geeks, etc. Also, I didn't care much for parties-- I LOVED doing my school work. Whenever I did party, I didn't talk to anybody much at all-- I just danced without a care in the world of how other people thought of me.
I love video games just as much as ever, and my dream job is to make video games for a living. I never had a full-time job, and I never had a "normal" job, such as flipping burgers. I love watching anime. I never had a boyfriend. I always have crushes on one or more men. My favorite obsession is Hammurabi Kabbabe, whom I met at Johnston center of the University of Redlands.I figured I might as well list the various organizations I was involved with in the past. Sorry, but I am not going gold-- there are cheaper (free) means of contacting me besides this website.
School
I have no ideal where I went to kindergarten. This was before I moved to Glendora. I started the 1st grade at Sutherland, but I was held back a grade because of my "shyness". The school officials got me started on speech therapy classes afterwards.
Most of my peers I associated with at home attended Stanton. These were guys that my brothers hanged out with. Thinking that I would see them more if I changed schools, I went ahead and made the switch by the 3rd grade. I didn't see them much, but I got acquainted with one of my all time closest friends: Dorothy Swinson. (I'm not sure how that is spelled.) I also got to know James Parker, who hanged out with Dorothy a lot. She later moved shortly after I started attending middle school.
First, I went to Sandburg, because that is where everybody in my class was going. Because I had social problems (I was bullied verbally an awful lot), I was also put into special education classes. That lasted only a year-- I guess I was too smart to be in such classes. In fact, I was given the opportunity to skip a grade, but I declined. Later, I really wondered what Goddard was like, because that is where my older brother graduated. I made the switch just before the 8th grade.
In high school, I was sometimes asked if I was an only child. No, I have an older brother, but he did not attend the same high school as me. He we...Expand for more
nt to Edgewood, which had special programs that would cater to his handicap-- he has mental retardation. For those wondering, this explains why you never knew I had a brother.
I also befriended Jason Carey, who was my sparring partner when taking martial arts lessons. (I did that in my free time.) After the first semester in high school, I stopped taking karate, but we remained friends-- until he got hit by a car. Now, he is a friend in spirit. He is the one I took with me to my senior prom. I never even realized he was popular at my high school for being the younger brother of Chris Carey. Huh? At least he got to experience prom before his death.
For high school, I went to Glendora HS, and I loved it. When my parents considered moving to Lake Havasu City, AZ during my last year, I insisted on staying where I was. We stayed in Glendora, and I graduated in 1995.
In high school, I studied hard and ran hard in cross country and track. I did not party much at all, but I worked hard at keeping up with my classes. During lunch times, I hanged out with different types of people, including computer geeks, Mormon groupies, Christian clubbers, social outcasts, thesbians, and Asian students. We had lots of interesting people at Glendora HS.
College
Johnston: The best school days I ever had, and also the most difficult. I actually partied. I actually made an effort at socializing-- even if I wasn't that sucessful.
DeVry: The worst school days of my life. Nonstop school work. Disrespectful classmates when I gave ASB reports. BSing the senior project... and passing. Working as an FA. Graduating with high honors and unable to acquire a single job offer.
Mohave Community College: I took nearly all of my classes Online. I worked as a web designer. For a while, I lived in a homeless shelter, and then I later rented a room.
I now live in a condo with the rent subsidized. I am in a program for people that have low incomes. I cannot afford to pay rent without it.
Studied animation & game design at Santa Monica college for a decade. While there, I started working as event staff with Contemporary Services Corporation. I still work there, and now I also work as a grocery shopper for Amazon.
When not working, I spend most of my time playing video games. My favorite series is Dragon Quest.
