Doing a lot better since I last posted in this thread. I found a job. I now work at my local Walmart. “Loddfafnir, listen to my counsel: You will fare well if you follow it, It will help you much if you heed it.

I work night shift in a regional distribution center (RDC) supply chain. It's pretty horrible work but it pays the bills well.

For those interested, basically I start work at 10pm and leave at 8am. The entire time I'm locked inside a massive -20C freezer (security team watch with camera to make sure I'm okay and there's emergency release). A truck arrives FULL of 1 specific item and that gets put on a platform on a conveyor belt, which automatically goes through an airlock type system into my freezer. There's dozens of other platforms like it with numbers on top which represent stores. I have to look at a list, see which numbers needs what quantity of the item and move however many onto the stores platform respectively. That takes all night, dozens of deliveries. Day shift continue it into the day then the evening, when I'm not there, all those platforms get loaded onto the trucks and sent to the stores ready for the cycle to continue again.

Aside from work, I play Baseball, RS (obviously), lots of steam games. I socialise a fair amount but it's very restricted due to my nightshift. Occasionally though a buddy of mine will pull an nighter to chill with me.

Currently studying CSA in IT to hopefully get my dream career, Looking to learn a second language and once I replace my currently dead car, I'll probably stop wasting my nights and most likely volunteer at a homeless shelter for my nights off.

I'm currently finishing up my high school diploma. Unfortunately, my school schedule is my priority and with the time it takes for me to both leave for, and return from, school, I don't have a lot of time to hold a job. I've had a couple of interviews, but I don't have the availability they're looking for.

After I get my diploma, I'm looking to go to a local community college for my pre-requisites so I can transfer downstate to go to university.

If I understood things correctly, I'm looking at a Bachelor of Science.

Ayyyyyy.
Arrr! Only th' Devil an' I know th' where'bouts o' me treasure, an' th' one o' us who lives th' longes' should take i' all.

I'm an electrical engineer who, more or less, has moved over to the software-defined side of things while retaining some solid analog fundamentals. Hopefully going to settle on a particular field (i.e. data storage) since I'm somewhat all over the place at the moment.

Also, in my spare time, a language enthusiast (both vocal and programming) and aspiring pro gamer. I can't say the latter has been going that well, but hey, I try for fun :P .
Just your friendly neighborhood team player.

I'm currently an undergraduate student majoring in Psychology. I've wanted to study Psychology since I was thirteen because my dad gave me a book called "The Definitive Book of Body Language by Alan and Barbara Pease". Ever since then, I've been trying to read people's body language cues. I've also been reading more about the different branches of psychology, anything about the brain is really interesting to me!

I've also been acting since I was eleven, so I'd like to pursue acting more seriously in the future. My other hobbies include hip-hop dancing! :D
