Lime sherbert Punch
Whenever I graduated I went to TJC. I had a lot of casual acquaintances in my life at this point but I pledged a sorority so I had instant sisters. One of them was my best friend and her name was Patty Tucker and I called her Pucker. We went everywhere together that year and a half. We even worked together one summer and had a lot of laughs but I got a lot of honest answers I never really wanted to hear I'm sure. There was another girl who ran with us sometime and her name was Tricia. One experience she had that I always share with my girls is how she argued with her boyfriend and they broke up. He left mad and ran off the road and he wasn't found until the next morning dead in a one car accident. During this time in my life, I made a lot of mistakes and I have a lot of regrets but I don't have any about attending TJC. I think all students should go to Jr. College before they are thrown into the wolves in a classroom of 300 or more students. I can't even imagine a class that size after attending ACU.There was also numerous students I would sit by and have so much fun talking to them in class. One thing about school was I loved to talk to my neighbors before class. I like for my own students to talk before class too because it is so healthy. However when there is work to do and I'm teaching, that's different. Hopefully all I learned during this time made me a better person, wife, daughter, sister, mother and friend.

That's how I made most of my friends; they usually sat by me and we would always strike up conversations before class.
You always told us to not leave mad because of that, and even though I have broken that rule, I believe it is one that shouldn't!
Love you mom!
