Hugs, not drugs.

I was addicted to cocaine, ecstasy, and speed all through high school. I overdosed after being on a cocaine binge for 8 days and was sent to rehab by my parents. The last time I used drugs was Christmas Eve 2007, so my official clean date is Christmas day of 2007.

Now being clean for about 3.5 years I finally have my life back in control. Designing is a hobby of mine that I picked up to occupy my time as a result of getting clean. I just got accepted to the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) a couple of weeks ago with a major in Mechanical Engineering. Needless to say I am very excited to move forward and focus on my future.

Life is good.
