10 Year Highland High School Reunion Life Update

I wanted to post this because I wrote it for my 10 year year-book.
1) High School activities - I played 3 years on the Highland Golf team - I was just an average player and didn't play well my senior year at the State Championship at our home course. I had a few honors classes but didn't ever get college credit for them. I wish I would have spent a little more time studying and a little less time watching TV. I also played soccer and loved the competitiveness of High School soccer. Randy Bosh was a great coach.

2) Since High School I went to a year at ISU and then left to serve a two-year Church mission for the LDS church. I went to Finland and spoke Finnish for two years. It was more of a blessing to my life than I could write in pages of material so I won't try, but I never regret my decision to teach people about the gospel of Jesus Christ.

After that, I went to ISU and graduated in Marketing. I walked on to the ISU Golf team and played for 3 years. Out of ISU, I started working for myself as a card processor. I am the guy that you talk to if you want to take cards from clients, both online and in a store. Currently I am getting into a system where you can pay via your cell phone with an encrypted card in your phone.

3) I think my Greatest Accomplishment since High School has been getting married. It took me a while but I did it almost 2 years ago. I met Lindsay in Mesa, Arizona at a Monday night church activity playing soccer. At first I thought that she was a girl that I met the night before and got her phone number. After being followed by multiple guys I convinced her to go to Applebees w/ me and my friends. The cliche "the rest is history" fits. We dated for 3 months and got married in Hawaii on the beach.

4) Something you may not know about me is that I love technology. I am always interested in the latest piece of tech and I want to be a computer nerd someday.

5) My favorite memory of High School was skipping class and going bowling with Corey Sherman and Brand Novosel. Just Kidding... That wasn't my favorite memory. I don't know if there was one event that I think of as my favorite, but I thought our school always had excellent sports programs and it was fun watching football and basketball win championships.
