    Car is an 08’ 911 Carrera S that I got a pretty incredible deal on (old man that owned it traded it in and I bought the car at cost). Here are a couple videos I took when I got the car. It’s pretty much been in the shop since I got it, it’s averaged 2,100 miles per year so it needs some work due to the fact that it’s been sitting so long (not good for performance cars :().

    What you're doing now: About the same. Obviously, I took at break from here for a few years. I used to be the rank just above President (idk don't remember what it was). Had multiple towns. Hadn't been here for years and came back recently to see the reset and all of the cool changes which I'm still getting used to. Having fun working my up from builder again.

    What you were doing then:
    I was in about 6th grade and was just being a kid. Enjoyed ECC for a couple years and still love to come back and reminisce.

    What you're doing now:
    Sitting in my dorm room procrastinating work as I am now a freshmen in college. Majoring in chemical engineering and running track as well.

    Reading this thread was really cool, seeing all these other people who were like 11-14 years old now all grown up in college and everyone older getting careers and starting their lives. Makes me excited and happy to know everyone else is doing well. This was a place for me to escape and really enjoy new people. Thanks for all the good years, I learned a lot from this place and wish you all the best.

    What you were doing then:
    Just finishing my first year of 3 at the University of Chichester studying Dance and Performing Arts. Was super into gaming and decided instead of rehearsing and practicing before the main practical exams in late April, I would try out Minecraft and see if it was for me.

    What you're doing now:
    I'm currently working as a Self Employed plasterer. Currently still living at home but as I'm saving money to move to America permanently in the coming years. Getting married to @Ladyvamptress and getting back into maybe a career in something I am interested in :p As with Minecraft and ECC, I took 2 majority breaks away from ECC in my 9 years here, but still have plans on finishing my current town on Main.

    What you were doing then:
    I was a divorced jobless single mom trying to make ends meat. I had to move back in with my mom and dad after the split from my ex husband because he took everything from me, well except the kids of course! I had met back up with this wonderful guy named @Mission001 earlier the year before and fell head over heels for him. Little did I know that in just a few short months, he would ask me to be his wife. :3 My son (who was 6 years old at the time) wanted to play on MC servers and being the protective mom that I am, I just had to make an account to check things out first. Mission suggested this really nice economy server (ECC) and I got hooked!

    Mission and I at an amusement park when he came to visit in 2014.

    What you're doing now:
    I am a full time school bus driver and I adore my job and my bus kids (most days). I am thinking about taking a part time job soon as well as a summer job with the local river rafting facility (they hire school bus drivers every summer and pay very well). This should put me over the amount I need to make to finally marry Mission and get a place for us so he can move here! As for my ECC life, I’ve taken a couple breaks, 3 months being the longest, over the years and even though I don’t have a lot of time to play much these days, I still log on a couple times a week to help other people out and work on getting the funds to throw my ECC dream wedding.

    Mission and I on a paint date the last time he came to visit.

    Last pic I took of myself, around Christmas time!

    I was in 8th grade, living it up. I've had a few friends join in with me over the years, but none really stayed. There's been a few times I got preoccupied with real life, and took some long breaks from ECC. Each time though, I came back with a greater love of the server.
    What you're doing now:

    Now, I'm 21 and a member of the Missouri National Guard. I'm excited to see where my adventures take me now on the reset server and in real life. I absolutely love what this server has become and can't wait to become richer than Clar :p

    What you were doing then:
    I was in secondary school, around Year 9, just about to start my GCSEs. I'd come onto ECC to find a server to play in my free time. A couple of years later I was an SMod and a President!

    What you're doing now:
    7 years later, I've just finished my 2nd year of University, studying computer forensics which is really interesting and it's what I want a career in - also got my black belt in karate too! I've recently just joined back again to pass some time and come say hi to some old faces! I'm planning on claiming a town when I rank up to Tycoon to help the influx of new builders out.
