Life Story, Long or Short

As A Kid
Around age 10 I had a few bad teachers and started having problems at home. I started to think that I was ever going to be shit in life. I never developed any picture of what adult life could be like, I just knew I didn't want to be an alcholic like my dad.
Jr. High
So I just played basketball, chased women, listened to music, and ran around all day with friends. My jr. high years I truly believe were as fun and exciting as anyone elses, anywhere.
High School
Then highschool, friends and girls started changing for the worse. So I latched onto this one girl I felt was better then all the rest and figured if I could be with her, then I could have a happy adult life. After we broke up, I couldn't get over her.
College Dropout
I wasn't getting any smarter, and my life was just heading downhill chasing after a girl I would never be able to truly work things out with. I was failing miserably in college, just like I'd done in highschool.
Rock Bottom/Conversion
Then I hit Rock Bottom at 18. I was at work one night and I sat down for a second and was overcome with an engulfing state of depression, that left me paralyzed. I couldn't move, I didn't want to move, I didn't ever want to get up ever again, I just sat there, on the clock, doing nothing, in a complete daze, not wanting to live. It's curious and ironic to point out that in this moment of complete hopelessness, only then did I finally have the courage to make a change I'd thought about making several times before. And in that moment, I converted to Islam. (Although not technically until I performed Shahada)
Early Days As A Muslim
So I'm a hardcore Muslim for 2 straight months, mosque every friday, trying to convert friends, praying 5 times a day, the works. All my friends pay it no mind and I feel all alone and alienated in my religion...
More Failure
so I try to figure out a way to be a Muslim and still blend in with everyone else. I run into some more problems in life trying to start a computer business at 19 with a guy who I'd later find out was completely dishonest. I began to lose all respect for the people in my life. I lost some of the college money my grandmother saved for me in the business.
Retreat/ Starting Anew
I retreated back to my parents house fall 2001, to save money and try to get my life back on track. I didn't want to hang out with any of the people in my life and I ended up spending most my time reading books, studying Islam, and hanging with ya'll on the internet, here at the WCC.
The Present
Now it's 8-5-02, I'm 20, close again with all my old friends, I'm cool with my family now, I'm doing very well in college 30 hours completed and a 3.0 GPA. I'm out of my parents house, on my way to getting 60 college hours so I can substitute teach as a part time job. I'm slowly running out of my grandmothers college money because a couple weeks ago I got fired from my nightstock job, and I don't have much motivation to start working again.
Who Knew
I guess things are good, just not what I would have ever expected in my life, I would of never predicted any of this. Peace.

King Tech Quadafi:
AS A KID
Born in Kuwait, grew up there in a nice neighbourhood. Pops was making money, i was being educated in a private school.
Saddam sends his army into Kuwait while we're driving into Kuwait. Kinda sucks seeing Tanks pass by you. Anyways we drive from Kuwait into Iraq (Airspace closed). Have yall ever slept in the Iraqi desert? Yall should try it. Then we drive to Jordon where we live in utter poverty. Pops scrapes some money and we fly to Canada.
JR SCHOOL
Played sports and developed a sense of humour, developed my personality and gained some self confidence. Met alot of people Im still very close with. Went on vacation to Afghanistan after grade 6.
HIGH SCHOOL
Fuck, I ran my school. Had fun, fucked girls, drank, smoked weed, chilled, hung out, met aLOT of people.
And now Im counting down the days until Sept 3 when i start University.
So theres a VERY BRIEF outline of my life.
