At 25 I was in Iraq about to leave the army because my now ex-girlfriend was pregnant with my first child. I had no 'civi street' skills and no job prospects, only wished to bring up my unborn baby, actually be there; with all my limbs. Up to that point I had drifted through life with no plans and only joined the army because I lacked the skills or qualifications to do anything else. I'm still drifting through, doing what I need to survive. I can't offer anything by way of advice. I had no idea what I wanted to do while at school or after. Being poor growing up meant I didn't touch a computer until I was about 24; having not grown up with them I never bothered with them. I was given at that time a second hand laptop and that was it for me, I was fascinated, I just wanted to understand how 1s and 0s could do what I was seeing. Working on a degree at the moment so I can, hopefully, do something I'm actually interested in at some point in my life.
