27 year-old male from Ooltewah, TN
I am really interested in pretty much everything. One week I will be on the nearest boulder, feeling the sun on my back, the next week I will be on world of warcraft. I try to stay in shape. After all you are both a mind and a body. To ignore one is to ignore half of who you are. I also try to sharpen my mind. I am deeply in love with philosophy, and I love to discuss any of its fields with anyone. I am somewhat pessimistic towards humanity. I feel that the average person is stuck in an aesthetic existence, and that bothers me a lot. Overall I feel knowledge and compassion are key to being a complete person. |

What a Long Strange Trip it has Been
Where to begin. 6 years I have been a member of this sight. A lot has changed. I'm 27 today and looking back 21 was a very strange time in my life. Its amazing how naive I was. Like everyone I'd like to think I've become a good person, but that simply may or may not be true. God knows I have my share of "demons" but at this point I realize that is every much a part of who I am as the good. Life is not black and white, good or bad, or whatever cliche you prefer. I'm every bit a terrible person as I am a good one and I am fine with that. Its much more interesting that way.
3 years shy of 30 and I finally discovered what I am doing with my life. Barring any unforeseen circumstances I will be entering in my city fire department in November. Currently finishing up my emt now and will be a paramedic in the next 2 years. Its nice to finally have meaning. Although its ironic after all this time moving on from bartending to my career will be a paycut. At least I'll finally be part of something that matters. I never would have seen this coming when I made my first posts on this sight. Good times ahead and good times have passed. Happy birthday to me.
P.S. Yes some alcohol is involved in this post ;)
