Pre-1990
1989 George H.W. Bush served as president until 1993.
August 1987
Moved to Melbourne, Florida and attended Florida Institute of Technology. Joined Lambda Chi Alpha, student senate, football, Army ROTC and crew team, plus 7 Aerospace Engineering classes... Well, the classes were really: Fundamentals of Aerospace Engineering, Calculus 1, Chemistry, Learning Strategies (easy), ROTC Leadership Labs (easy), Engineering Graphics (drafting, difficult based on the instructor I ended up with) and Fundamentals of Composition and Rhetoric (tough English class). My first quarter in college was insane (and the grades showed I did too much). I did learn more this quarter than any other in college.

January 28, 1986
Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster... Since everyone knew then that I was determined to be an astronaut, this was a very difficult day for me. Later, my physical vision disqualified me but I am still determined to make it to space sometime. I also found out in college that I really didn't care for Physics, etc. and knew that I would not excel in these areas. I decided then that I wanted to succeed in my career, which eventually led me to business-production & operations management.

Fall 1980
6th Grade Pine Avenue Elementary - This year was a lot of fun, even though I had to adjust a bit to a different school (regardless, being a 6th grader rules in elementary school).
1980
Fall 1979
5th Grade Southeastern Elementary - One of my favorite teachers ever, Mr McMillan (sp?). For the first time that I could recall, a teacher focused on what I was good at and encouraged me to get even better. Math became fun and easier. I also made a solid friendship with Robert Chambers. We challenged each other to excel in Math (and he has been working for Microsoft for a long time). I believe Kevin Chivington also became a good friend at this time. The 5th grade (and a bit of the 4th, I suppose) became a turning point for me. My grades greatly improved and I started to realize that it actually mattered.
Fall 1978
4th Grade Southeastern Elementary - Tried playing the trombone, but hated it. My music instructor, Paul Todd, would not let me stop playing and ended up flunking me in music (a lot of U grades, thank you very little).
