About me

Hey English 102 class! My Name is Cory Quintana I am twenty years old, and I live in Evansville, Illinois. I have lived in Evansville almost my whole life, I attended Evansville Attendance Center in grade school, and I Went to high school in Sparta. I played football all four years, and always lifted weights for a hobby. When I graduated I started my first semester at SWIC the fall semester of 2008. About in the middle of the semester I decided to join the Air Force national guard, while waiting to go to Basic Training I completed another semester. I left for Basic Military Training the morning of June 2, 2009, within hours my life changed for the worst it was one of the most challenging things I have ever done both mentally, and physically. I graduated as a Honor Grad at the top of my flight on July 31, 2009. While in Basic I led my whole squadron of over 1800 trainees in push ups, pull ups, and sit ups, also I have the 321st Training Squadron record for push ups in a minute with 103. When I graduated I attended the Security Forces Academy, it was fourteen weeks of hell but I had a lot of fun and met some people I will never forget. This is my second semester third semester since I got back, I am looking forward to receiving my associates degree in Administration of Justice, and hopefully some day achieving my goal of becoming a state police officer.
