** Suddenly feels really old ** :(

Well, I'm like the odd man out here.  No computer science degree, no IT job, no great job in Sony :(  Just my love for FS...

Currently I'm a Financial Analyst in the Acquisitions department for a development company of multi-family communities (That means we construct, develop, and manage hi-rise condo's, townhomes, and apartments).  The company has about 50 apartment communities consisting of more than 15,000 multi-family rental and condo units throughout Florida.

What I do is basically:  Once land has been found (which is also one of my jobs, but I don't usually do that), I'm the one that finds the money to build it and closes the loans/bonds (the biggest project I closed was a $19 million apartment community of 292 units).  That's a really simple explanation for what I do, cuz closing these loans/bonds entails doing a ton of work.

Graduated a while back with a Finance degree and have real estate and mortgage licenses.  Been doing this for almost 2 years, before that I was a mortgage broker and in real estate.  It's no job at Sony, but it pays the bills :D

Future:  Hope to have my own development company, but probably will be in rehabilitating older buildings to market standards.

**snore**  Did I put you guys to sleep, too? ;)

[color=66ff00]I'm currently a uni student doing weekends in the 10th level of hell commonly branded as 'TKMaxx' (don't ever work there kids).

I'm studying biomedical engineering and I have the perhaps idealistic plan of putting my skills to use to help other people.

I'm currently working **** jobs to save up money to go to Uni next year, where I've got a confirmed place in an Applied Geology/Environmental Biology Double degree. I'm hoping to get work as a palaeontologist when I graduate, but I'm more likely to end up working for mining companies for a few years while I get a resume going.

Ah, I had such high aspirations for myself that, like Icarus, I didn't truly notice what the **** I was doing and as such I am currently plumetting towards Earth at great speeds.

Past Aspiration: God or other powerful being/entity
Past Reality: Expelled from school and kicked out of College

Current Aspiration: Freelance coder
Current Reality: Unemployed

Future Aspiration: Something that earns enough in 5 years for me to buy a nuclear weapon
Future Reality: Part-time fortune teller, using my new-found psychotemporal vision to set right in the present what will go wrong in the future. Kinda like Sam from Quantum Leap but with a tense-shift and less special effects

I wonder what that would be. Did you join the Armed Forces?
I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

I'm currently in 11th grade, and I really should be typing up an essay for AP American History or studying for the PSATs right now :p

Future? Computer Engineering for my major, not sure about what school though. I'm thinking possibly RIT, considering they have that nice co-op program to help defray the costs and I can get my Bachelor's and Master's in five years....
