Pretty much, except I thought I was going to be a middle school science teacher, and that just didn't work out.

What this quiz doesn't ask about is major life events - I'm guessing it's more for the 16-26 y.o. crowd.

In 1996, I graduated from UNH, and a week later, married David (May 25, 1996) :)
