School Story/Memory:

I never took part in any activities except for going to pep-rallies; that's what I looked forward to every Friday afternoon.

There are too many things to mention about high school - let's see - getting thrown of Mrs. Curtis' English class, going to ISS, or having to go to summer school and not being able to enjoy the free time like everyone else, relationships, arguments, heartaches, etc.

But the two good things I most remember about my Senior year was
Mr. Davis' Office Ed class and Ms. Mac's Journalism class.

I'll never forget the time I had to write something for our school newspaper. Nothing came to mind except for the new Marquee Billboard that we had installed in front of the gym. The only person who had all the answers to my questions was our PRINCIPAL - MR. CONRADO GARCIA! Holy crap! So there I was, sitting in his office, hands sweating, voice shaking but I got through it...finally! I kept a copy of that newspaper as one of my badges of courage. Thank you
Ms. Mac for giving me that courage.

As for Mr. Davis' class, I never thought he'd be my ticket to where I am now.

Mr. Davis taught you how to be taken seriously in life. He taught me how to give a handshake and be sincere by looking them in the eye. All of those factors came perfectly into play for me when I went on the two interviews Mr. Davis had set up for us girls. We interviewed at Rose Hill Cemetery and Ferguson Enterprises. I bombed at Rose Hill (ha ha) and took the job at Ferguson - from a receptionist to a salesperson, I stayed with that company for 11-1/2 yrs and then moved on to another. Thank you Mr. Davis!

Who was your favorite teacher at Miller?

Man ! This is a hard question to answer...
Sophomore year :
Mrs. Germany -- Biology.

Junior year : For some reason, I'm drawing a blank on this year... :-(

Senior year :
Mr. Davis -- Office Ed

When you left high school, what did you think you would be doing 20 years later?

Become a lawyer or a Housewife with lots of kids. Now, I am neither !

What was your first job?

Receptionist at Ferguson Enterprises 1988

What was your first car?

1979 Silver Buick Regal and a yellow Yugo ( you go nowhere in a Yugo ! )

Where would you build your dream vacation home?

Since my house has wheels, I guess... Home is where I park it !

What song immediately takes you back to the 80's?

Relax ! - Frankie Goes to Hollywood, The Promise, Personal Jesus, and The Reflex

What was the first concert you attended?

1. Huey Lewis & the News 2. Metallica ( at the old Hemisfair Arena - San Antonio in '91-'92 )

Please give 3 other classmates' names who, no matter how many years pass, are most likely to know your whereabouts.

Emily Rodriguez - my niece & Cary Gloria

How did you find out about our reunion website?

poked around the Classmates.com website

If I knew then what I know now, I would...

No wait ! I wouldn't change anything except learn how to cook. Unfortunately, I never accomplished that goal. Maybe one day but I'm in no rush :-D
