What were your favorite and least favorite subjects in high school? Why?

English was my favorite subject because I love to read. Math was my least favorite subject because I wasn’t really good at it once we got to Algebra or higher math classes.

How would your peers describe you in high school?

I was outgoing and athletic.

How would your teachers describe you in high school?

I was too talkative.

Did you have to wear a uniform in high school? Describe what it looked liked.

We did not wear uniforms in high school, but it was during the hippie days.

Did you have an after school job? If so, what is it?

I did babysitting.

What did you do at your job?

I babysat different families with younger children.

How much did you make in an hour?

I made $1.00 an hour.

What type of car did you drive?

I drove my dad’s Plymouth Fury III Station Wagon.

Describe what it looked liked.

It was big, black, long, and it looked liked a hearse.

What is your craziest driving moment?

My friend and I saw my brother and his friend walking down the road because their car broke down. So we picked them up and they were younger than us, but we took them over to Illinois to play cards in my friend’s house who lived in Illinois and we came home really early and we got in trouble.
