    Born in Odessa, Texas, at 1:15 pm on Saturday the 21st of August.  Moved years later to Denver, Colorado with my Mother and Father and with my Mother's side of the family.  Then moved to Chicago, IL followed by Philadelphia, PA then out here to Carneys Point/Penns Grove, S. New Jersey.  I Attended school at Penns Grove, never failed except for Senior Year, yeah I didn't get to walk with my class, I had to finish school up in summer school.  I played Tennis, Ran Track, and Wrestled my High School years.  I got my first car my Senior year at the age of 17.  I got a 1989 Ford Truck can't really remember the model of the truck but it was my first car. After I had a small accident with it, I got myself a Blue 1997 Hyundai Accent.  I was living with my ex at the time and she would take me to work at Linens N Things Distributions and take it to go to her job.  One night she called me and said I am sorry but I had an accident with your car, I was mad on the inside but however took it as a loss and my insurance company considered it totalled.  So not having any money really saved up in the bank and it being around christmas time, I had a good 1,000 dollars to spend lol, I found a 1990 Ford Taurus sitting in Ames parking lot so I contacted the owner and purchased that car.  It was a nice car but started experiencing problems down the road.  My alternator went on my car, my radiator went and then on my way with my sister to Six Flags in Jackson, NJ, my car's transmission went on me, right on the New Jersey Turnpike.  Finding out that it would cost twice as much as the car cost I sold it to the junkyard and took that as a loss too.  I took off like a week of work to go look for another car, where I got me a 2003 nissan sentra SE-R, brand new, only test driven, I loved it, bought it and have had it ever since. 

               Now since I overlooked all these years, lets go back to my high school years.  I was a graduated of 2000, I knew just about everyone in that school.  Me and my best friend at the time Alfonzo Dowe Jr. were holding down that school, everyone respected us and knew who we were, threw many house parties where we just had the entire population of south jersey over lol.  Mostly memorable high school parties, I got pretty serious with my first love Daishawn, we met my sophmore year, but Daishawn was a senior at the time.  I was with Daishawn a year and a half, we used to be best of friends and had our ups and downs.  When we broke up I really found out what it was like to lose a friend, but however moved on and got on with life.  My junior year I really started hating school, so I began to skip and just go home lol, never got caught, but you know actually when everyone starts to skip they senior year, I stopped cause I was just focusing on passing and graduating but however that didn't seem to turn out so good.  I failed senior year cause of English, so I did not get to walk with my class, I had to attend summer school to get my diploma, got it but didn't get to walk with my class.  It was cool I never did start college, as soon as I got out of summer school I began looking for a car and when I got my 97' Hyundai I went job hunting. 

            Started working for Westaff as a temp, which is only temporary help at local jobs.  I worked for them in September and got hired into Linens N Things fulltime on the 27th of November in 2000.  I started out working in the trailers unloading and palletizing product, I got promoted to Group Lead which is like a floor supervisor in August of 2001 right before my birthday. I am still currently at Linens N Things Distributions, I started on 2nd shift from 3:45 pm to 12:15 am but now I am on 3rd shift which is from 11:30 to 7:15 (Sun - Thur).  I got certified for the forklift as well and am certified and trained on equipment.  I am currently looking for a second job, reason cause my income is good but I need more to have a relaxing income ya feel me.  For as to what I do, I operate and manage the Shipping department, which is loading trailers basically and delivering them to the commercial stores all around the United States and Canada.  You can visit Linens N' Things Website by clicking on the name, they got some top quality stuff but expensive as hell lol.  Give me a call and I'll hook u up with my discount you know!, but you should really check their stores out and see what kind of unique stuff we got.  But yeah my workers load trailers of all different kinds of merchandise to the stores, I decide which store has the most freight to be shipped and a forklift operator is signed to bring that merchandise to one of my 15 doors.  Also another part of shipping are called the shipping lanes, we have a sorter that sorts to 30 doors and into the trailer the product goes.  We are trying some new methods on how to get more product to the stores so we got some combo loads which is multiple loads going into the trailers to be sorted and shipped.  It's mos def a challenge and keeps ya in shape.  We have three distributions which are located in Greensboro, NC, Shepardsville, KY and Swedesboro, NJ where I am employed at in Swedesboro, NJ.  We basically take care of the northeastern stores and Canada stores, Greensboro takes the southeastern and Kentucky handles the midwest, south and western stores.

          More about my family, I lived most of my life with my Mother and Father, Maryann and Kev'n Sr., my brother Mark and on and off my Sister Christine.  My brother moved out in July of 2003 and joined the Navy and was stationed in Chicago, IL but now stationed in Norfolk, VA which is nice as hell down there.  My sister moved out and went to college summer of 2000 at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ, more closer to me than my brother but both drivable distance lol.  My mother and father separated in the year 2000, my mom moved across town in Penns Grove, NJ. and my father met someone new and moved to Wilmington, Delaware with her in 2003.  Which forced me to get my own place which is in Carney's Point, NJ, I have three dogs names are Daisy, Gizmo & Muncher.  Daisy is a beagle terrior, Gizmo is a full bread Chihuahua
