About Shane Strong

May 12th, 2009

One thing that you really don’t see on most blogs is a really good place to get to know the owner. Well this is because there really isn’t a easy way to do this. Yeah you have your about page and maybe people can contact the owner and get to know them. Well I know I wouldn’t do that, maybe read the about page but that is it. So in this post I am going to tell you some stuff about Shane Strong me.

I grew up in a little town called Olivet this town is about 30 min south west from Lansing Michigan. I went to school there all my life. I was that kid that everyone was friends with but I didn’t really have all to many good friend. Maybe this was because I only wanted two of three close friends. All through out school I was really good at math and science but I was not the greatest when it came to reading, spelling, or history. I started playing a lot of sports in 7th grade and found that I liked them quite a bit. I was playing basketball, track, and golf. Most of my child hood I was set that I would become a electrical engineer and build up to be a nuclear engineer.

Then high school happened. I was still into sports trying out for Golf, Basketball, and Baseball. Most of my school time was set to getting better at sports. I was really fixed on golf. It was a sport that my grandpa taught me before he died and I guess it was because of him that I became such a great golfer. I player basketball for my freshmen ans sophomore years in high school but couldn’t make the cut my junior or senior year. I played baseball my freshmen, sophomore, and senior years. Took off the junior year so I could get better at golf. That was my real charge in high school. I became a Varsity player my sophomore year playing almost every game and if I wasn’t playing on Varsity I was number 1 on JV. My Junior year of golf I dropped 2 strokes on my game and was driving the ball about 310 yards. Ending the season the number 1 player on the team and getting awarded all-conference 1st class. That means I was in the top ten of all the players in our league. My senior year rolled around and I was pumped ready to become the number one player in our league. I started the year up one stroke from the year before but driving the ball about 315 yards still not bad but that one stroke would kill me. I finished the year out in 5th place still getting all-conference first class and MVP of the Olivet team and Captain award. Both Junior and Senior year for some reason I would choke at the regional round and not make it to state. Not the worst thing ever but no one had ever went to state in golf for Olivet and I could of been the first. I really feel that my biggest set back was that I wanted the Olivet golf team to get bigger than just me and didn’t focus quite enough on my personal game. Well of all my high school year my senior year was the best I broke up with my horrid girl friend that was holding me back from quite a few thing. I took 2 college classes Calculus 2 and Intro to Information Systems. Then it was time to graduate and I really was still stuck wondering what am I going to do next. Of the two Colleges I submitted my application to three contacted me back. Michigan Tech and Ferris State University. Oh yeah the third Olivet College they wanted me to go there because of what I did in the two classes well I was there. I actually had the opportunity to take a course that wasn’t offered there and I would have my own personal teacher. I ended up choosing Ferris why that was I couldn’t tell you but that is for another day.

Well that was the start of my life in a quick nut shell. I will inform you next time how I became a Web Developer and owning a business.
