    Well, I'm still alive. Time to vent. (Skip to double line break to skip rant and get to meat and potatos.)

    It's been what, a year and a half almost since I was here? So much has happened, I think I need to go back and explain a few things over the last... six? yea.... god it's been six years since I joined here... I hate time for moving sometimes...

    Lets fill in some holes in the plot that is my life. Going to cover a bit of everything, even stuff I already talked about in the years past.....

    Damnit...

    How does a year go by so fast? I keep telling myself to get back to this... But never actually do... Finding the motivation is hard... I'll try to return before another year passes... maybe I might even make some progress... I'm sorry to everyone who's waiting... everyone who checks back in now and again to see if I updated anything... I'm sorry I can't keep my head in it.

    It's time I crawl out of my hole.

    I haven't posted a new chapter for 117 or for Nova in two years. :pinkiesad2: The question is, what have I been up to all this time? Well, I finished high school and started college. Nothing fancy, just a local community college. I also got a job during my absence... Wendy's... which lasted a month and a half... second job (Target) lasted three months... until the angry leprechaun that was my

    Status update

    Hey everyone... I'm still alive. Things on my end are slow going. Almost done with high school (finally) and well... after high school... things get foggy... I was going to go into the military and join the Marine Corps... Had my MOS signed off... had a ship date... had the next 20 years planned out... But things happened and such... and that's not happening. :fluttershysad: It isn't. I don't

ASVAB · 3:36am Feb 13th, 2015

I don't think I have really mentioned this yet, so now is as good a time as any. Once I am done with high school I am joining the military; the USMC to be exact. When that happens, my writing will creep to a halt and I will probably be putting whatever stories I have on a long term hiatus. That was the bad news. The good news, for me at least, is that I scored an AFQT of 92 on my ASVAB. For those of you that don't know what that is or what it means... it's Armed Forces Qualification Test and Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery. The asvab is a set of tests involving science, math, reading, electronics, automotive knowledge, mechanical comprehension, and basic reasoning. The whole thing was about 300 questions and took up about 4 hours. No calculators allowed so all math must be done in your head or on scrap paper The test is scored out of 99 so getting a 92 is an outstanding achievement. The test basically dictates what jobs you can get and a few other things. getting an 80 is good enough to get most of the jobs available but having a 90 or better means I can have almost any job and whatever recruiter I meet will pretty much jump for joy -for lack of a better term- at seeing my score.

I took the practice ASVAB the other day for the Air Force, and landed a 63.

Nice, good luck with the real thing. If you plan to take it.

Good luck and stay safe.

Good Luck man.

Big thanks to you all.
