I teach myself through trial and error or just trying things for circuits and stuff. But for most things, I just ask someone that knows and store that little chunk of good stuff away in the old grey matter!

| Highschool. Originally I planned to pursue some further education but coupled with how much I loath school and the fact that it seems pointless, I abandoned that plan. |

I don't really like reading, I was never fast in school so I just look at pictures, trial/error, and ask ALOT of questions! I'm always learning but, I wish I knew a lot more. Still I've forgotten a lot more then I remember :D
