Doug's Story

Life dcegelis at y-hoo to reach me. Had to get that out first. My life has changed considerably since school. I always felt like school was a waste of time, and as it turns out, I was right. I'm not saying things were easy by any means, but if you are willing to bust your ash for a few years, it pays off. I live in Asheville, NC, and have for 4 years now (and one year right after school). I have a 3 year old daughter and am unmarried. I have lived in several states along the East Coast, including a working vacation to Bar Harbor, Maine in 2000 for 5 months, and then again in 2005. I lived in Boston for a year, great city! I chose Boston because I typically run the Boston Marathon, or used to, and always enjoyed my time there. Well, turns out it's a bit too cold for a Florida Native, so I came back to Asheville, and I'll probably be here a while. Every so often I actually bump into old classmates here, it's certainly a great vacation destination. Every so often I'll type in a classmates name on Google, to see if I can find out what they're into now. I've found quite a few of you, including several currently incarcerated, believe it or not. Just search for "Florida Inmate Search" and see for yourself. They even have current pictures. Now, the bad ones were few and far between, several of you have gone onto some pretty lucrative careers, and I envy you. Nice job, and I'll see you at the top. I stay in even better shape than I was in high school, even though I don't always run as much as I did then ( to and from school nearly everyday for a couple of years would be tough to match). I'm about 20 pounds heavier, and have been as much as 40 pounds heavier than I was in school, but I really have to eat like a horse and workout all the time to maintain that kind of weight. Right now I'm about 155, or less. For those who i used to lift weights with, a couple of years ago, when I was 28, my max bench press was 340, at 170 lbs. Pretty good I thought. I've got a ...Expand for more
few pets. I've got three dogs, a Basset Hound and two Miniature Pinschers. Bob, Ben, and Billy. I've got one cat, he doesn't really have a set name that I'm aware of, I just call him by various nicknames. I've always had pets and I always will, and to those with kids, I highly recommend raising your child around pets. My little girl loves them so much. Speaking of my little girl... My daughters name is Juliana Ashley Cegelis. A funny story about where i got her first name. I was waiting tables at a restaurant in Boston (Joe's, Newbury St.) and shortly after I was hired, a hostess was hired. This was perhaps the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen, but not just in the physical sense, she was about the nicest person ever. Her name was Juliana. Juliana had just moved here from Brazil, and apparently girls typically look like her over there so she didn't really think anything of how she looked. About a month after she was hired, she started dating Manny Ramirez of the Red Sox, after meeting him in the gym a block over. Well, they got married a year later, and now have a child. Well anyway, I always thought what a beautiful name for a woman, and it stuck with me in case I ever had a daughter, and by mere coincidence she marries my favorite baseball player. Well, I thought it was pretty neat. Alright, gotta run, but you know this was the longest profile you've read on this site, and so at least I've got that, right? A couple more quick facts- I drive a 1999 Honda Civic, and plan to trade it in shortly for a 2004 Acura TL, when I transition into selling real estate. I just turned 30 Feb 9, 2005. I make around $45K annually, and that number has gone up every year I've worked, mostly in restaurants, but soon I'll be opening several businesses along with dabbling in real estate, and I've been in the stock market since 1993, through good and bad unfortunately, but I'm still ahead. I was very much against all drugs in school, but now I smoke pot. Funny how times...
