Father died at 18 years old, and after being a high / over achiever at school and Uni, with a leaning towards metal/ goth/ punk scene, I finally left EVERYTHING behind at 21 and emigrated to foreign country.
Now 28, married for 4 years, pulling in 45K+ p.a. (corporate rock whore :-) ), and listening / playing Metallica, Less Than Jake, NUFAN, various blues etc for fun.
To anyone out there who is having doubts - YOU decide what direction your life takes, and anyone who tells you otherwise can get ****ED :-)

I grew up in such a "normal family life"---I wanted to know what was abnormal. One thing learned; teaches you to step out [and to think outside] of the box & be whatever you want in life, it's limitless. Life is to be seized and is there for the taking. Boundaries are only those in an individuals mind!
