@FrostyPhoenix prosueing a career!

trying things out, seeing what makes my mind jump up and down like a kid with a bunch of sugar whos about to watch his favorite movie ( i say this, because my almost 2 year old son, who was hanging out with his grandma earlier, is hyped up on sugar and as i was turning his favorite movie on, he was jumping up and down and had the biggest smile on his face) and see what i love about it! Thats why im on this site, see how everyone reacts to each other and so on. also not to mention, I started my NTG internship yesterday.

@FrostyPhoenix prosueing a career!

no It job really, however i did help my dad and my uncle with some things growing up.. reinstalling OS, updating OS, finding breach points for virus' , and containing virus'
Nothing further other than a few part changes and building family desktops.
