Well, I'm a former Human Services student who decided to take a different path once I realized in some ways I was more screwed up than most of the people I was studying to treat. Currently, I'm in a Criminal Justice program with aspirations towards a Criminology focus, though I'm giving some thought to other parts of the field as well.

Aside form that, I'm currently still unemployed, mainly due to the fact that I'm sick and tired of doing bottom-of-the-barrel retail work and am incapable of doing certain physical tasks on advice of my doctor.

You have to be somewhat fucked up to want to go into Human Services. It is alright as long as you are self-aware.

Unfortunately a lot of people going into the field are not self-aware. >_<

True, but the further I went along, the more I decided I wanted to use what I was learning, but in a different sort of way. And I've always preferred some of the more theoretical parts of the field, personally.

That was one of those things I've toyed with for years, but it's purely an interest, not a serious career move. I simply don't have the desire to go through all the other crap I'd hafta study in addition to history just to qualify, whereas with CJ I'm actually feeling (so far) like I'm making some progress. Couple that with my former HS studies, and I've got some actual idea of what I'm wanting to do now.

Almost as good as Lowe ^_^
Education: I got Superior Diploma here in Italy, Eletronics, Informatics and Automation... Gone for a different University path, but fights with my father chopped the founds... If I can find a remunerative job I'd go for an Univerity too, prolly Literature with specialization in History (Italy is weird about Uni...) or Robotics...

Job: Technically jack of all trades, I never had a stable job, but worked in computer shops, created some websites, technical assistance to my mother's school and her colleagues and a lot of stuff like that...

I actually had to read that a few times to understand that you meant Criminal Justice lol

Criminology was my first career path. I feel it's too late to go back to it now and, honestly, the system here disgusts me.

Education: I'm in the process of completing my third semester at the University of Georgia. Right now, I'm on track to become a Comparative Literature major, but this is really just a place holder. I've considered applying to the school of Journalism. Psychology and Philosophy also have my interest. Unlike every one else I know, I have no idea what I want to do with the rest of my life.

Occupation: Formerly a lot attendant at Home Depot, I'm now a full time student. I'll wind up getting another job come summer (now that I'm in college, I have to work or go to school; if not, I get kicked out of the house), but that's some time off.

If that's the case, what year in high school are you in now? There's a good chance you are the youngest Junker here, but then again...

Year 9, according to Victoria's education system.
