Started in Accounting and have been a Computer Geek of one sort or another for six years. As far as school, I have been screwing around and not getting anything done. I have accumulated about 34 credit hours at a Community College. I am looking at Online Colleges to hopefully start next year. Also I am planning on talking to a recruiter for the Army Reserve next January. So depending on the outcome of that , will set the tone of what I will be doing next next year.

Bah, I never plan to finish school and I never plan to grow up!!!!!


Actually, IMHO learning is a life long experience. School / University is just a start and once you move out into a full time job thats when you learn the most.

The only thing I would suggest is to do choose something you love as your career and then its all good after that.

JD had a interest in computers way back in grade 8 when he was 13, he took all the computer courses he could in school, got a job selling PCs out of high school, got a job with a large corporation doing computer support when he was 21 and at age 37 he is still with that company.

If I had a chance to go it all over I would have liked to had better grades in high school and then attended university like many of my friends but I have no regrets with the way my career has gone.

I am still surprised that Pornstar is not actually making movies



Cheers all

Well you know that whole AIDs scare thing in the Porn Industry and all, so I figure it was probably a good time as any to find some better to do.
