Favorite School Memory | Hanging out with my friends, cutting class and goofing off. Very inspirational ... the handbook to academic under-achieving. |
About Me | Could this question be more open-ended? Went to Irvine Valley College for a couple years (and kind of wasted my time in doing so). Transfered to Chapman University for a year, then moved to Dallas and matriculated to UT Dallas. Played in a band for a few years in college and for a year or two after, and discovered a lot about myself, my outlook, and how I wanted to live my life in the face of what was popular or expected of twenty-somethings, especially musicians. Finished two undergraduate degrees, got married, left the band, and worked for a few years while my wife finished nursing school and passed her boards.

I try to keep in touch with old friends when I can, but much has changed over the last 20 years, and it's hard to keep up with folks. As we've grown up and taken on the responsibilities of adulthood, it has become harder to identify and bridge the divide of between what we expect of and from old friends and who we are now. Still, there are a few friends from my youth that I keep in touch with. I am happy with where my life is at, and though high school was not the greatest experience for me, I can't complain about where I am now. Part of the uncertainty and discomfort of youth is the fuel for the soul to seek new refuge and experience, and the motivational machine that lifts some up to pursue greater heights.
