Comments: What's up Class of '93!!! I can't believe we are officially adults now in our 30's!!!! I still feel sooooo young!!!!!! Anywayz, sorry I couldn't make the reunion, I had given birth to my son at that time. I live in the Capitol City and work for Governor Manchin. My hubby of almost 7 years is a doctor. We have struck a balance between being responsible adults and parents and still enjoying the prime of our lives. It helps that my parents live in Glade Springs and are more than happy to babysit our son while my hubby and I travel around the globe. Life is what you make it, and we've made it pretty SWEET!!!! Take care all you 30somethings!!!!! Love, Humera :)

My career in the Navy unfortunately came to an abrupt halt this past year after I had a seizure out on the carrier. I guess the night carrier landings finally got to me. So I closed that chapter of my life and am still dabbling in the business. I currently am working on a government contract as a tactics and flight instructor for the F/A-18 Hornet. Not a bad job and we still get to live at the beach. Hope everyone is well and looking forward to reading some more posts out there.
