Hello Everyone,

I am very new to webdesign and programming. I am at the very beginning of my journey.

I am 30 years old and currently studying for my bachelors in Game Simulation and Programming at Devry University. I live on the East Coast of the US.

I will eventually post my website once I get familiar to the forums. I hope to see plenty of constructive criticism (and hpefully not get flamed.)

Welcome from another East Coaster (...for the time being, at least!) We have a cat named Nuka

. She thinks she's a dog

East coaster?! You lived in the beautiful San Diego area didn't you Mandy? What happened?

Nice new avatar, by the way. Is that your K10D you are holding?
Also, welcome to the forums Nookah

No, but I was married in San Diego . . . almost 20 years ago

. And yup, that's the one

. I've got the 55-200mm lens on it there. I was taking pictures of four little visitors to our home, who'd never seen the ocean before - oh, boy, did they have a good time! Their mama took that photo of me, and I love it.

My spouse is an active duty Coast Guard member, so we move a lot. Here's the tally:

1986 - Spouse (to be) left Alaska and joined the CG, straight out of HS. I stayed behind in Alaska to continue school. He was assigned to Provincetown, MA (Cape Cod) right out of boot camp.

1988 - I moved to Cape Cod, and we flew to San Diego to get married at a family reunion.

1989 - Transferred to Ketchikan, AK. Had two baby girls (not at once, LOL.)

1992 - Transferred to Juneau, AK.

1994 - Transferred to Buffalo, NY.

1998 - Selected for the military Physician Assistant Academy, transferred to San Antonio, TX for Phase I . . . this is where FQ came into my life

1999 - Transferred to Colorado Springs, CO for Phase II of PA Academy

2000 - Transferred to Kodiak, AK (done with school)

2002 - Spent 3 months in Honolulu, HI (on orders) while one daughter was in the hospital there. (She's allllll better now, whew.)

2003 - Transferred to Clearwater, FL

2006 - Transferred (back!!) to Cape Cod, MA. Was going to be the Twilight Tour for the CG, but now a certain unnamed Coastie thinks he really, really wants another promotion . . . so I don't see the transfers coming to an end anytime soon.

Regardless, we're sending kiddo #1 to college in two weeks, and the other one will be right behind her. I'm off to grad school next fall myself. One way or another, the list will continue to grow!!
