Hi Delaney! I remember you only a little. I came in on 08/08/88. I think I remember you mainly because we share the same last name. I made it to 4th phase after only working 2 days at a nursery. The rest of my time I was in Straight. I was an out-of-towner, so I didn't have a host home. No car to take me to work, and by the time I made it to 3rd, it was too late in the school year to go to school. I never looked at it like Straight being my highschool, but that makes such perfect sense for me. Some of my close friends like to joke with me about it. I don't hide it, my experience at Straight is part of what has made me to be the person that I am today. I don't have shame in it. You know the phrase in the movie American Pie, where the girl says, "This one time at band camp....."? Well, my friends joke about me saying, "This one time at rehab...."! It's actually pretty funny.
Glad you found this site... but be careful, because some people like to vent a lot of negativity here. Sometimes it's good only in small doses.
Peace-
Kelly
