HIGH SCHOOL MEMORIES:
Pherby & I getting fried under
the sunlamp at Yester Oaks. I
was the definition of
skin cancer. lol
Carter Hooper in Homeroom for 3
Years! What a delight! Who else
would go on & on about the
Billboard charts as long as I
wanted to discuss it? You're
amazing! ABBA Rules!!!
Lunch-Time: Burger Chef,
McDonalds, Stamey's, Boar &
Castle & Carolina Circle Mall!
Speaking of Carolina Circle,
having the Wire Hubcaps
stolen on 3 different ocassions
from my parents Cutlass Supreme
sure sucked...So much for
fun at the Mall...
Too bad Carolina Circle is no
more... so much for the old
stompin' grounds. I miss the Boar
& Castle too... Where have all
the (really) good times gone?
Skipping school & going to "Good
Time Charlies" to play Pin-Ball
with "The Hookster", Stephen
Hooks.
Impersonating my Mom when Mrs.
Woodruff called to tell my
parents I had an "F" average in
her class. Sorry, but I had to
save my ass due to
daydreaming... Bored & not
interested! School was such a
snooze - classes were anyway!
The Yeast Rolls in the Cafeteria!
Honestly, has there ever
been any bread like that? Melt
in your mouth good, like a hot,
glazed Krispy Kreme?? Ya'll
Droolin' Yet?
Going to Cheerleader Try-outs
in 10th Grade, not feeling good
enough to compete, leaving try-
outs, never to return. Being A
Cheerleader at Aycock Jr/Middle
was fun, but short lived!
I guess that explains why my
favorite class was Modern
Dance! That was the highlight of
my day! I had to get my groove on somewhere!
A-C Intersection.... OMG, do
they still call it that? You
know...that crazy congested
Hallway, sea of people, the
feeling you get when wandering
through the crowd at a sold out
concert.. that huge crowd in the
lobby...
Wall to wall, arm pit to arm
pit, eye to eye, etc...
Yeah, that A-C Intersection!! lol
Buying my Brand New, Light Blue,
1978 Camaro off the lot at
Traders Chevrolet! Wow! I worked
so hard to save for that down
payment! Thank You K-Mart & the
IRS!!!
To Everyone of you that I've had
the pleasure to know all of these
years, Wow! Some of us go all the
way back to 1st grade... It's SO
amazing!
While our reunions are such wonderful occasions for all of us,
we still remember those that have
left us way too soon!! We'll always miss them, Forever! I haven't
been able to come up with the
words to express my heartache. I
need FOREVER on that... |

Stephanie @ my parents beach condo (Emerald Isle, NC)

Stephanie gives me a warning...
"I'm serious Mom...
stop riding the radio dial!
Put it on something & leave it there...
You're truly testing my patience!" (She still hates Rap...) "Pass the earplugs Mom!"
I don't get it... how can she detest Rap, when her favorite song was "Wild Thing, by Tone Loc?" She's just rebellin'!

Me - 1st Grade: Oh, How I wish I was that young again & knew then what I know now... Bottom Line,..."Never allow someone
to be your Priority
while allowing yourself to be their Option" ... "You are the only person responsible for your happiness!"

Me in 2nd Grade (1st Row Far Right) LOL

Me in 1978...
"Lying there laughing in the wet grass, here on Thunder...oops I mean, "Treasure Island!" Pirates Rule!!!!
In Wrangler's & Earth Sandals OMG... You're Kidding?

Just me... hanging out in Switzerland - The Swiss Alps/Matterhorn Summer of '77

Happy Halloween 2008! I should thank Stephanie for letting me borrow her middle school Cheerleader uniform from 2001! I can't believe I got my butt into that "Get Up" lol
Although Stephanie lets me borrow her clothes, she doesn't really like it! She just shakes her head, and tells me to grow up! My reply to her..."Talk To The Hand!"... My excuse...
Music keeps me young at heart, so therefore sue Dick Clark! lol (Mr. Clark is my Idol!)

Stephanie's Dad, my ex-hubby since 1997 - Stephen Hooks ("Now & Then")
Class of '78 @ Grimsley (OMG, A WHIRLIE!!!)
Stephen went to Page (1st Semester/10th Grade) He rode my bus and we were in Homeroom together. I got separated from my group @ the Greensboro Fair, met Stephen and the rest is history. He now resides in Florida (again)... He's left Vegas!
"Hookster" still remains one of my best friends!!
I wish him all the best in the Sunshine State!
