What to say and where to start?

I've played EVE for a few months now, probably around six, had a "fat wallet" as a corp member put it, and a noobish mentality.  When I started in eve, I wanted to get ahead as quickly as possible, and possibly the best way to do it, from what I know now, was to either buy a pre-trained toon, or train learning skills and cybernetics first, then train as planned for what ever you want to do.

However, with my so called "fat wallet" and noob mentality, I purchased Plex's to resell, and even purchased a pre-made POS corp for like 500mil, bad idea.  After running a yearly expense report in EMMA, I'm in the hole 2.6bil, yes that's a "BILLION".... oh my what a mistake... It wasn't until I renewed my subscription again last month that I came to the conclusion that I need to join an experienced corp and find some actual FUN.

For the longest time I've been in a 3 man personal corp, but I wanted more out of EVE.  So I typed in the recruiting channel that I wanted to join a corp, not any corp, but a 0.0 corp, and one willing to basically teach me PVP.  My skills are all across the board and only a few have been maxed, probably 5 or so.  Being that my toon has somewhere around 3.4m SP, I was declined by a few, but one corp picked me up and to my astonishment, even offered to jump all my stuff to the base, and even had a TS(Team Speak) server, that's awesome by itself.

It wasn't until I actually fleeted up with the guys that I realized how organized a fleet is in null sec.  In high sec I've fleeted up with a few people, and absolutely none of them have been this organized and verbal on TS.  Calling orders, requesting backup, and so much more, it's just awesome.  Now me being a COD (Call of Duty) freak using comms is absolutely required, and the shear fact that I've found a corp that uses TS every time someone is on, is absolutely amazing to me.

Prior to making this move to complete 0.0 and dissolving my corp, I was debating on just letting my subscription go and leave everything hovering in space, well that's changed!
