    Failed college when I was around 18 or so. I wallowed for a bit, but eventually I developed a really strong drive to learn. I may have been dumb, but that doesn’t mean I couldn’t be smarter if I tried.

    Long story short, I joined the Navy to go back to school to get my degree and now I have a fantastic job that’s beyond easy.

    But that drive to learn new stuff cannot by quenched now. I want to learn everything!
