My son, James


Ok, My son is James Michael Turley, he is 21 years old and inhis fourth year at Michigan Technological University. He is studying to become an electrical engineer. He has done
well, so far. But he has struggled a bit, that is why he is in his fourth year and he is not a senior. James is my quiet, stand-offish child. He prefers to be by himself and do his thing. He works hard, plays hard(when he does) and takes life waaaaaay to seriously. He needs to lighten up and not let things get him so badly. He is very opinionated and isn't afraid to share his opinion with everyone. Get him in trouble sometimes, but to him it doesn't matter.
He has taken up the hobby of photography and has an excellent eye for the artistic photos. He doesn't take people shots, but loves bugs, trees, flowers and all things inanimate.
He is also a Lego addict. He can build anything out of Lego. He has a ton of these little bricks and pieces in his room here at home. He can sit for hours with an idea in his head and go to town building. SOmetimes he will be holed up in his room for days building.
James graduated salutitorian from high school and could never understand why that was a great accomplishment. His HS studies came very easy for him, college on the other hand is kicking his butt. He never learned how to study in HS and now it is hurting his college career. He does have a 2.5 GPA, but he wishes it was better.
I am not sure what pic of James I will put up, maybe a recent one of some waterfalls we saw on vacation. They were so tranquil and beautiful.
James, I am ever so proud of you and all you have accomplished, keep it up and someday you may graduated college, LOL!! Love ya, Son!!
