Hey everyone, i'm lilshadowxzx (Matt) just joined like a few minutes ago.
Joined here to hopefully learn a thing or two about surviving and well in general outdoor knowledge.
Gonna go ahead and C+P the intro guide (makes it neater i suppose.)
Your Approximate Age - turning 17 next month
Your Gender- male
Your Geographic Location (small town in West Virginia, family ranch in Texas, or the “the Lower East Side”) - Virginia, city
Your Occupation (present and relevant past, such as military, technical, etc.) - high school student (assuming that counts.)
Your Prior Relevant Training (all types, such as first aid, military, firearms, survival, etc.)- currently not very much training, at least not in the wild, only in city/homeless situations (learned from sister who had to be for a while.)
The Nature of Your Prior Experience (Terrain, Season, Number of times/years, and longest duration in Wilderness) Only real "experience" was a temporary stay at a camp in Appalachian Mountains
Your Level of Experience (novice, intermediate, advanced, expert, instructor, etc.) Novice/noob
Your Preparedness Planning (type and level) (not 100% certain as to what this is referring to honestly. gonna guess it means what you're planning? if so then trying to plan for if i have to survive in a wild situation)
Your Interests and Hobbies (gardening, wilderness skills, urban survival preparation, knife-making, firearms, food storage, backpacking, etc. ) Planning to backpack when i finish high-school possibly afterwords (providing i gain enough skills) attempt to purchase land/survive in some woodlands. (Though i am aware that will be very challenging considering i have little-no wild training yet and would have to train a lot.) other then that i guess Writing is a hobby, alongside drawing, and if animals count, then them.
Your Membership and Learning Objectives- Listed in the previous 2 i'd say.
Yeah though, hello WS.net and hopefully i'm welcome here. (i've lurked a bit before, am aware of the public opinion here on those who desire to "go into the wild" and survive, hopefully i don't get the same response as they did, well the ones i've seen.) Anyways, hello everyone.
