I swear, this stuff just follows me

In high school, you expect a certain level of drama. With a couple thousand hormone-fueled young people crammed into one space, each trying to build a reputation, figure out where they fit in the grand scheme of the world, yeah, you're going to run into more OMG situations than you ever wanted to handle. So when my high school life was filled with dramatics, it was okay, I was assured that college would be much different. But then college happened. And I assure you I could write a novel on the drama of college life. But, hey, everyone's finally moved away from home, trying to establish independence, this isn't the real world just yet. Adulthood is on the horizon, and I was sure that would finally be a calm time.

Boy was I wrong.

It's not like I ask for it. It just follows me around. I regale my coworkers with the stories of my life, how much of it comes straight from the pages of a book or a movie, even though I work an incredibly unassuming job (I'm a civil engineer) and have a fantastic group of friends.  They encouraged me to write these things down and share.

So here is the adventure that is my life, prepare for a bumpy ride.
