Default 1/5th of my life...

Today,

I watch my profile life counter rollover to year #5. I was just thinking what have I accomplished in that time span and what things I've experienced...

In 5 years:

- I completed almost 2 bachelors degrees

- Aquired the car of my college dreams.

- Was an automotive engineer for one of the largest domestic aftermarket performance companies.

- spent most of my free time at this forum, learning, growing and bs'ing

Thanks Guys!

Hmm... I shudder to think of how little I've done in the last 5 years. I've got two words for it: "Groundhog Day."

I remember reading somewhere that life is a series of 5-year journeys. Interesting perspective.
