Graduated high school in 2002, left shitty town in No. Michigan, went to University of Michigan, partied hard for 2 years, still got good grades, met a girl in 2004 (long story for another thread in this forum), graduated with good grades in 2006 but no fucking clue what to do with myself after, spent about a year doing odd jobs, then spent 1.5 years working for various Detroit-area churches (never was or ever been particularly religious but I pretended like I was because it paid the bills) and tutoring math to kids, applied to the Navy to be an intelligence officer, got accepted, passed all the tests, got flagged for medical reasons which I got two private doctors to waive but military wouldn't accept, chalked it up to experience, even though I couldn't get in I've been a much stronger person since I went through that whole ordeal. Applied to Univ. of Maryland last summer as a backup plan to Navy, ended up working out. Also got accepted to NYU but didn't go because I had already started at Maryland, was pretty excited about that for a bit. Been going to school in Maryland since January, getting a masters in public policy, studying international security. Working since May for a IT services/defense contractor corporation, in 3-odd weeks will be going back to school, working part-time for the contractor, working part-time as a graduate assistant, and attending classes full time. I also tear up a bunch of WoW in my spare time (which is little and getting littler).
