Yes

The summer after I graduated, I worked at Walmart. I started at Westark that fall and met Jake at the BSU. I got my Associates in Graphic Design in 2002, then began working at an advertising agency called Hundley Media that summer. Jake and I were married May of '03. We went on a mission trip to India October of '04 that was awesome. I can't wait to go back someday. I was pregnant with Benjamin in '05 and quit my job at the end of the year, then had him a week later. I had Emma in March, and we just had our 5th wedding anniversary. I'm still doing some freelance work for Hundley Media.

High school wasn't exactly the place where I had the most fun in my life. I got good grades and was "friends" with everyone. As far as I know, no one hated me, but poor little me was just too shy to be close friends with just about everyone with the exception of very few.

There were some good times, though: getting to drink chocolate milk during Mrs. Files class. Listening to the O.J. Simpson verdict on the band room radio. Getting chapel to drag on so we could miss the next class. Laura Marley lighting her fake nail on fire from Mr. Stewart's birthday cake. The sad Christmas decorations in Mr. Wing's room. Getting "love notes" from Krissi. Duct taping Mr. Stewart to the side of the band building. Sleeping during 7th hour in the senior lounge. Practicing and performing S.T.U.F.F.F. (I still have a program from that)

For me, high school was pretty good, senior year was much better, but college beat it all.
