Susan L. Frise

Have traveled much, worked at many jobs including jobs in Oregon, Montana & Nevada. Did get into computers early enough so that up until the 2000's I found good jobs with my computer skills (most people didn't seem to have those skills until after 2001). Graduated SDSU, 39 years after first starting at SFSU, while working as a Secretary/Data Specialist at MHS, Inc.
In addition to work I've skydived, gone Rocky Mountain hiking while in Montana (also San Gabriel Mtns. hiking, up to the "Bridge to No Where" & bungy jumped off it), parasailed, snorkeled by the arches at Cabo, backpacked at the age of 64 thru Thailand for 2-months, became a Bahai in the '70's, was vegetarian for 7 years, was enchanted by Thai Buddhism for a while, embracing principles from those religions as mine forever; also I enjoy visits with my two sets of grandchildren: one set lives in Ireland where my son is a surveyor; the other grandchildren's father is an Army helicopter pilot and they reside in Kansas. My oldest daughter lives closer to home in Oceanside--she's in real estate development. As to forever hobbies, I still love to read, enjoy the Internet, and never cease to take long hikes or walks anywhere.

Have lots of stories but the main one was running away after 11th grade with two other Hilltop High students and when we were ratted out by some Mexicans we had trusted to hide us, and brought back (we ran to Mexico & and our parents had posted a reward for us) I was sent to live with my school nurse Aunt in Monterey, CA and so did not graduate from Hilltop. I had a grrrrreat senior year at Monterey High where they had not known me since elementary school; actually dated the football team captain and made two new best girlfriends. It was such a rebirth and, not oddly, I can only remember those few best friends I made there, not hardly anyone else from Monterey, so because I only remember all the people I went to school with at Cook Elementary, Castle Park Jr. High and Hilltop High I would be lost at anything pertaining to alumni stuff in Monterey, so here I am, back at Hilltop for alumni stuff.
