Okay, here it goes. Believe me, there is alot missing, but I will try to fill in as many blanks as necessary. I was born in Charleston, South Carolina on Charleston's Naval Military Base. I know, I'm a navy brat. Less than a year later, I had a baby sister that I still look after to this day. Not an easy job, but I still try. My sister and I were raised by our mother until my father retired from the navy and entered the field of service engineering. By the way, my father is a certified Nuclear Engineer as well as Mechanical and Petroleum Engineering. He has almost all fields covered except Chemical, but I think he left that on out on purpose. Guess I won't know for sure. My dad still traveled alot, but that brought us from Charleston to the further South. Louisiana to be exact (for reasons of my abstract paranoia, I am not giving out the city).

           In the time that it took me and my sister to complete elementary and middle school, my mother had returned to college to earn her degree. She was returning to the work force and she was becoming a teacher. Those were the years that I lost alot of weight because I didn't know how to cook back then and mom was a little busy with her studies. I am proud of her for that too. Not only did it teach me how to be a semi-decent cook, but she also taught me how to take care of myself and others, and while she was teaching me that, she aced all her classes and graduated from Southeastern Louisiana University with Magna Cum Laude Honors and top honors in almost all of her classes.

           In our new town/city (never knew which to call it) my sister and I attended school. Up until our High school years, we both attended public schools. The public school system isn't that bad in my opinion, but my sister didn't agree with me on that point. On that note, she entered private school, I continued my education at McKinley Senior High School and would have graduated in the year 1998 except I dropped out of high school to get my GED (Good Enough Diploma). My sister still graduated on time in 1998, but we went our separate ways. I went straight from my GED to Southeastern Louisiana University while my sister moved to Colorado to live and make a living. She went their in the hopes of attending Colorado State University in Ft. Collins, but that fell through. She still tried though. After a while, she got fed up with it and found out that she was still eligible for the Tuition Opportunity Program For Students (TOPS). When she found this out, she moved back to the South with me and was now attending Louisiana State University with a major in Psychology.

           I dropped out of collage due to physical injuries (shattered my leg during a rock climbing trip in winter).  Kept me out of trouble for about 7 months while I recovered.  After I got back on my feet and learned how to walk again, I rejoined the work force.  I started off doing dead end jobs like West Tel Communications and Burger King, but I ended up with a job that I love.  I was working as a lead cashier at Barnes & Noble Booksellers.  After a while, I started getting antsy about my job and wanted to explore other options, so I took the most drastic option possible.  I joined the military.  I joined and I am still in today.  I am a member of the US Navy sailing around in the 7th Fleet stationed out of Sasebo, Japan.  It is incredible.
