a new addiction

While I was attending the Basic School in Quantico, one of my platoon mates who I thought quite highly of, formed a dangerous obsession with 24, constantly referring to Jack Bauer whenever we found our training dealing with extreme situations.

I started watching 24 last night on Netflix, with their "watch it now!" service on my laptop.

Holy Hell. This is going to be a problem.

I need to get through all ... eight (?) seasons before school starts, because I am hooked. Line and sinker.

On top of that I started watching True Blood, which is amusing, but not nearly as habit forming for me.

Honors Thesis? Fulbright application? GRE study plan? What? I don't know what you're talking about.

Leave the apartment to exert my body, get the blood pumping? I don't know how to do that. Be quiet, Jack Bauer is about to do something bad ass.

About Me

My photo
I would be remiss if I didn't extend my gratitude to the Fulbright program for this jaw-dropping opportunity, as well as to the Honors Department at the University of Louisville, for its hard work in ensuring my selection as an English Teaching Assistant to Oman for the 2012-2013 year. My brief bio - Born and raised in Amboy, WA, I attended Clark College in Vancouver, before going on to the University of Washington in Seattle where I earned a BFA in Fine Arts - Oil Painting in 2004. I then attended USMC Officer Candidate's School, and accepted a commission as a second lieutenant in the summer of 2005. I served for four years as a logistics officer, stationed in Camp Lejeune and deployed worldwide. After the conclusion of my commission, I moved to Louisville, KY where I attended the University of Louisville, achieving a BA in Art History and a minor in Middle East and Islamic Studies.
