Originally from New York, I was a Stonemason since the age of 15. I spent most afternoons learning about computers and the newest games from my dad. Used to watch everything to do with space and science when I was young, especially reruns of Carl Sagan’s “Cosmos”. I aspired to be a robotic engineer since I was a child, I used to dream about working for NASA and help designing/building rovers for mars. I would always take apart everything when I was a kid. My poor dad’s first Windows XP laptop was a victim to my Frankenstein like behavior.
My mother left my life 18 and dropped out of school a year prior to take care of her after a stroke. Still acquired my G.E.D. but never even thought about college until six months ago. I had a very bad self-confidence issue, less of my image but more of own self-worth. It slowly passed, but I still occasionally feel an overwhelming sadness and doubt in my actions for a day or so.
Currently living in an apartment with my girlfriend of 2 years in North Carolina, Heard about how nice it was here and everyone was right. Current applicant of a community college and hopefully can get accepted for a transfer for engineering. I skate occasionally, read science fiction/Science books, Play drums/bass (Not well might I add), and build a computer once every couple of years. But my favorite thing to do is to game. Every week or so my dad and I play GATV together and still to this day he kicks my ass in Super Smash Bros. My girlfriend and I love Kingdom Hearts and generally we all play way too much.
Still contemplating the choice of staying a Stonemason or perusing an engineering Career. Hopefully I can decide in 2 years instead of a $40,000 coaster.
