Big Brothers Of America


I got the ball rolling on becoming a mentor last week. Should have an interview coming up this month. Having not had a positive male role model for most of my life, its something I feel very strongly about. I think becoming that person for a kid, aside from helping the kid, would fill in some of the blanks for myself. Not sure about which specific program I am going to be participating in, but I will be either working with foster care teens or kids who have a parent currently in prison.

This is great, congratulations.





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

cool deal man
are you still in san diego or did you move back up north?
I'm in ventura now so if the kid/kids you work with need someone to play with I have a 5 year old with a ton of energy looking for new friends...
I don't know how young the kids in the programs are, but we are around

Good good stuff.



Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?
