The Introduction thread - Introduce Yourself Here!

[scarlett530]

Thanks Stargazer! I do think GWTW is one of the greats. I had a scholarship too when I graduated, and threw it away. At least I appreciate my opportunity to go to school now. Everyone here has been super friendly....

to everyone!

Hello FORT!

I've been tooling around the FORT for awhile, but thought I'd make it formal.

Age: 23

Location: Denver, Colorado (Originally from Fort Collins, Colorado if there are any CSU fans/alumni out there)

Occupation: Student (@ UCD)/Legal Assistant

Goals: 1. Get my philosophy undergrad degree 2. Get into law school for next fall. And then, we'll see. I don't see myself as a teacher or as a practicing attorney...so my choices are getting pretty slim.

Interests: Reading. I'll read almost anything - except "How to Write Computer Code" or something. Talking philosophy with friends and travelling when I have the $$$$$

Marital Status: Single but Convivant (if anyone listens to NPR)

Pets: None. My dog died this summer

I really enjoy my time here and all the fantastic insights and comments everyone has.

[Stargazer]
