10th Reunion, June 2005 - Where was everyone else?? Well Kids, since we did a 5th and I live in California, I was thinking of either a 15th or 20th. Please email me if you have any other suggestions and if you would like to help/take on planning of the next reunion. (e_staehli@yahoo.com) Thanks!

I got married on 10/6/01 to my girlfriend who I met the second week of college (here's a pic)! Besides that, I have been running my website I started my 3rd year of college at Northeastern Univ. (http://www.undergroundhiphop.com) full time (I kind of wonder why I dropped over $100,000 on a college degree, just to work for myself? Haha.). It's been growing quickly (one of the most visited hip hop sites on the Internet) and I plan to open a retail store selling hip hop records, CD's, tapes, video's, etc. within the next couple of months here in Boston, MA. I couldn't imagine a more fun job then the one I have right now. After graduating from Northeastern with a dual major in MIS/ Marketing, my company was supposed to get bought out by Grand Royal Records out of Los Angeles (the Beastie Boy's Record label). Their investors pulled out, so they pulled out of the deal so Lynn (my fiance at the time) and I moved down to CT from Boston (we were supposed to move to Los Angeles for a minumum of 3 years due to this deal. We moved to Middletown, CT because my wife grew up in that area). We stayed in CT for two years (it was more boring then I could ever explain), and we just moved back up to Boston (actually, Newton which is 15 min. outside of the City) where we are happily living now (we moved back 6/1/02). Maybe at our 10 Year Reunion, my wife and I will have kids - haha! Feel free to contact me via e-mail - due to my job I'm online all day!

**NOTE: There was NO 10th reunion!! Stacy, Vanessa, Anna and I just happened to be at Nova Tera on the same night in June of 05. It was a complete coincedence, as stated above we will be working on either a 15th or a 20th so if anyone can start sending me emails of other classmates that would be awesome!!**
Wow, where do I even begin... As you may know I graduated from The Ohio State University with a BS in Biology in 2000. After that I moved to Baltimore, MD to do research on a National Heart Study at The Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health. You see if you work for JHU they pay for school - too bad I had the worst year ever and decided that medicine just wasn't going to cut it for me. So I headed back to Jersey, did a little soul searching, bartended in Bridgewater, reconnected with some old friends, and decided to move again. So here I am now, in good old La La Land with all the beautiful people- so they say. Anyway, I was unemployed for about three months when I first go here, but I guess it payed off because I am currently working for various departments at the Warner Bros. Studios. I guess I still haven't figured out what life is all about, but at least I know that film and television is part of it, for me anyway. As for the personal life I am not married, thank god, and I haven't had any kids (although Stacy's is adorable - I'm just not there yet) but I am happy and excited about starting this new career. Too bad I took so much time with the whole doctor thing, oh well too late now.
I am glad to hear that a lot of you are well and good, if anyone lives in the area let me know or if you want to chat with me feel free to email.
Hope all is well!!

I graduated college in 1999 with a degree in Psychology, and because I still had no idea what I wanted to do with myself I came out to Chicago to go to graduate school, also in Psychology. Of course, three years into it, I have a MA and should have a PhD soon and I still don't know what kind of job I'm going to end up with ... only time will tell, I guess. I got married on August 18, 2001 in Princeton to Lindsay Clark (now Bartolone), that's what this goofy picture is from. I shouldn't have sat in the bleachers at Yankee Stadium 2 days beforehand, I have a nice sunburn in all my wedding photos. We've bought our first condo in downtown Chicago, right across the street from Soldier Field where the Bears play (and close to the Planetarium where my wife works), and we'll be moving there sometime in June. Not sure what else to say -- drop me a line and say hi if you want to catch up!

How's everyone? Well, I figured it was time to update this page, just in case anyone was interested.
As you can tell by the new last name, I got married on April 1, 2006 to my wonderful husband Michael. Yes... we were married on April Fools Day, and if any of you knew my husband, you'd understand. But with getting married, I had to transfer to South Carolina to be with my husband who was relocated there in 2005. So, I packed my bags at the end of last June (school was over) and headed to the South. So far I am enjoying it. I am in the process of getting my SC Certification, and then I will go and get a teaching job. For those of you who didn't know, I was a 7th grade Science Teacher at Roselle Park Middle School in Roselle Park, New Jersey. Where I taught for the past 6 years. Right now, I am just working here and there. It's less stressful.
Other than that, not much is going on. I'm happy in South Carolina, life is good, and that's about it.
I hope to hear and see everyone soon.
Can you believe 15 years is coming up soon?

I now have my bachlors in Special Education and I teach grades 6-8 I love it. I am working on my master in Reading. Living in Florida reading and Math are a big concern in our state test. I now have 3 kids in stead of 1 I have a set of twins that are 3 1/2 and I am a single mom. My oldest is going to be 5 in November and I have been single/divorced since she was 2 months. Not much as changed just that I am teaching now and working on my masters. Hopefully I will see you all at a reunioun when we have it.

I can hardly believe that it has been 10 years! A quick summary of that time for me would be...I went to college, graduated and work as a teacher of the handicapped with infants and toddlers with developmental disabilities. I'm not married. I don't have any of my own children. I would love to be involved with the planning of a reunion when we get to 15 or any other milestone that needs to be celebrated! Hope everyone who reads this is on the path that they want to be and living out thier dreams!

Hey, jersey kids! Well, here's me: Miss Rugda, thinking that her life would be a fairy tale right out of highschool. Well, I graduated from Rutgers University in 1999 with a BA in Art History and i loved it! But there was no money! So, i decided to move to LA a year out of college. I hated it there, mostly because I was alone, and the people there were so competitive. I didn't like it much. I was an extra on the ALI movie satrring Wil SMith and Jamie Fox and I was an extra in a stratight-to-video movie starring Wil Wheaton. But my acting career didn't work out. I was out there for a year and I naively thought that I was going to make it over night. Boy, was I in for some trouble. I met a producer there who had a daughter in show biz ( i won't mention her name), so I trusted him. Anyways, to make a long story short, they wouldn't take me home, they lied, and it was for porn! HAHA..
OK, enough. After a year, I had had enough of LA LA land and was heading back to Jersey when I bumped into this knight in shining armor (actually, he was on roller blades). So, we become engaged and he later flew to Jersey and we got married there. For two years, it was rough, but I knew I loved him and wanted to try to work on my marriage and my degree of becoming a teacher on the side and working on becoming an actress.
Well, things didn't exactly go as I had planned (whose Life does?) I married a man who was already married to his friends. His friends came first and I of course came after. So, we are in the middle of ending our marriage (actually we are separated as we speak and have just signed our papers). It hit me really bad and I was so ashamed of myself and being divorced. But F*%$ it! I'm not the first and last.
SO, here I am, living in Virgina where half my family moved to and I am a teacher. I love it and I hate it. I am working on heading back to Jersey and from there, God knows. But I will tell you this much: I am F*&%^#@ scared of Life and where I am heading. But for now, I AM HAPPY. And I cannot wait until our reunion so I can see everyone. I never knew until I was out of highschool how much I have missed everyone in my class. And I hope that I will get to see everyone there no matter what has happened in the past. I miss you guys. Here's my email: Cleopatra7795@yahoo.com. Please email me. I would love to see what you guys have been up to.
