I was born one stormy night, not far from a mall that got its roof blown off.
I grew up in my rather sheltered suburban home in NE Maple Grove, where I still reside today. My first best friends lived in the houses next to mine. Today, I don't know who lives in either house. Except that one is a state trooper and his wife runs marathons.
Throughout my school days, I was an average, unremarkable student. Because I wanted to be. My home lies under the radar. I'm sure my teachers would say I only put forth minimal effort. And I would agree-to a point. I don't see any point in spending upwards of ten times as much effort simply to get a higher "grade." I'm confident that I can recite the periodic table just as well as anyone who got an "A" in AP Chemistry like TEN years ago... yaeesh!
Shortly after the end of 10th grade, I began working at Cub Foods. Where I still am today. *sigh* The color schemes have changed a few times, and the pay is better. Other than that, it's about the same. Well, no. It used to be fun. Now, not so much.
After successful completion of my prescribed course of study at Osseo Senior, I went to North Hennepin Community College. Not knowing what I wanted to study, I found myself "pushed" into some business classes. So I went with that. Transfered to Metropolitan State University, and low and behold, graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. Woop-de-do. Still not knowing what I want to do, it's an okay degree, as business is applicable to a wide variety of proffessions. Had I wanted to stay in school for a while longer, I probably would hve double majored in Philosophy too. Maybe a minor in Psychology.
I am simple and complicated. I think way more than I speak. Odds are, anything I've said I've already thought about a few times. I live in a world inside my head just as much as I live in the real world. Although-they're pretty much the same. I fall hard-and when I do, there's a part of me that will never get up.
I question everything, even if it's only for a moment. I don't expect to find answers to most of these.
Lets face the facts-I'm OBSESSED with U2.
I like to think of myself as something of a Tiger. (Or any kind of cat really.) Normally relaxed and somewhat leisurely, but also fast and powerful at a moments notice, or playful and silly. Yeah, that's me...
