Yolanda's Story
It all started at
Whitehall Elementary School back in 19....well I'm not gonna even GO there!
Then it was on to Jackson Junior High School, where I fell madly in love with RANDY PERRY, who was THE playa from the Himalayazzzz LOL That relationship only lasted until he moved onto the next.. YALL know how the game go!
Then it was off to Jackson Central Merry High School, where my NERD genes kicked in. I was also a cheerleader at JCM, but I eventually got kicked off the squad because I became a non-wed mother, but more of that later...
Next, I ended up at Lane College (Upward Bound Bridge Program) through the contact of a very gracious mentor--Mr. Frank Ballard (R.I.P) ** I was also crowned Miss Upward Bound 1987!!!**
And to my great joy AND to my PARENTS, I received a full Presidential Scholarship to Tennessee State University in Nashville, TN. I left there in 1993 to attend dental school at
Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry in Nashville, TN.
From there, I joined the Navy and served as a dental corp officer for six years before finally settling into a comfortable married life in Chesapeake, VA. I have been married for almost three years and I have a 19 year-o...Expand for more
ld daughter Brittany who is in her second year at Virginia State University. She wants to be a Medical Examiner. I think she watches too much CSI and Court Tv, but if that's what it'll take for her to buy her mom a mansion, then so BE it!!
My daughter Brittany is my proudest achievement!! For if things hadn't happened the way they did, I may not have pushed myself so DAMN hard to succeed. I LOVE the HATERZ.... Because y'all only Motivate me! And now, you cain't tell me NOTHING, because I KNOW I'm Blessed!!! And I have NEVER EVER forgotten where I came from, because just like you can have material things in one breath, and in the next it can all be taken away. That's why I don't place a high value on material things. You can't take them with you when you're gone. But I know that if I lost everything I EVER had today, I know for a FACT that I can get it back again. Because I'm a survivor with a little hustler mentality. And above all else, I value God, family, friendships and career in that order. Isn't that what life is all about? Living life to the fullest while keeping the haterz at bay....Enjoy my profile. HI HATERZ!
And have the audacity of HOPE..... run Barack RUN!!!!
