About Me
What should I say, "about me?"

What did I like most in my High School Days?...yeah, that'll work.

If you don't want me to bore you... you can always CLICK your mouse.

Anyway, there's alot for me to say...and for some things I CAN'T say it here but...what I remember is....

Being in the school band! The TEACHER sucked (Some blond skinny hippie dude with an OLD Safari LAND ROVER)but it was fun. I really didn't like High School much. I used to get teased and harrased alot and sometimes get in fights and such BUT who hasn't? My HS Prom was (heh-heh) interesting. Let's say dat with a 5.0 Mustang convertible...it's amazing what u can do with it!

Several years later I decided to take a chance and move to the mainland.  With only $50 in my pocket I moved to Green Bay, Wisconsin to live with a few relatives then decided to try it in Nevada later that year. By June 2001 I made it in Las Vegas living in my own apartment, made plans to buy a new car and got a job  working at one of the major hotel/casinos on the Vegas Strip.
 
Later, when 9/11 happend it was pretty rough. Because of the terrorist attacks and the airline scare nobody wanted to travel. So, after 3 months I decided to move back to Hawaii to spend some time being home with friends and family before joining the US Army in early 2002.

Being in the military I learned and expierenced alot of things and visited alot of different places around the country and Europe. During my time at Ft.Polk in Louisiana, In  March 2003 we recieved orders to go to IRAQ in support of OPERATION:IRAQI FREEDOM. Those times over there in Baghdad and around Iraq was hell. We had some good times like seeing the people's faces as we help rebuild their country. And some bad ones as well like IED's & RPGs, I almost died in Fallujah too. Luckily with the exception of 3 soldiers, all of us in the unit came back alive.

I've spent the remainder of my stay at the base getting reassigned to a new unit, exploring Louisiana and the surounding states a bit more and contemplating on where should I go next.

So. in late 2006 I decided to come back to Hawaii and here I am typing this to ya.

As for my NEXT assignment...

'll keep you posted.
