I am tall, scatterbrained, and here.
My Self-Summary
I'm a beanpole. I was born at an air base near Madrid, Spain.
Unfortunately I spent only six weeks there, but I still (to my
knowledge) maintain dual citizenship. I then spent a year in El
Paso, Texas followed by moving to San Antonio.
I've traveled to various states across the United States on family
vacations and spent Spring Break 2007 driving around the
southwestern United States. I've had some of the most fun by
simply driving and watching the sun set and hours later, rise! When
it comes to international travel I've been to Italy on two
occasions.
I enjoy many things in life, but mostly
computers,
gaming,
anime,
music, zombies, and
road trips.
What I’m doing with my life
I usually attend classes at night and work during the day. I'm a
senior at the University of Texas at San Antonio where I am working
on attaining dual degrees in Information Systems and Infrastructure
Assurance with a minor in history. I substitute teach at my old
high school. During the summer I work on the computers, projectors
and whatever else at my old high school and I also travel.
I’m really good at
Listening, driving (I love to drive), computers, creating grandiose
and ideal plans for the future, running, being forgetful, subbing,
being honest, listening, being able to keep cool under stress and
rarely being outwardly angry (keeping my cool).
The first things people usually notice about me
My height and how thin I seem.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
(A)Chronicles of Narnia, It Doesn't Take a Hero, The Autobiography
of Chuck Yeager and Welcome to the N.H.K. I don't read as often as
I used to, but I'm possibly fixing that.
(B) Current favorite movies:
I used to have a list here, but I usually will watch a movie once
or twice so this list becomes old rather quickly. I enjoy foreign
as well foreign (mostly Asian) films. I tend to enjoy action,
comedy, documentaries, drama, and films. Occasionally I am a sucker
for the romantic types of films too.
Current favorite TV Shows:
Firefly
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
King of the Hill
Law & Order
Mystery Science Theater 3000
Peep Show
Robot Chicken
Squidbillies
(C) It changes quite often, but as of now:
Bruce Hornsby
Duran Duran
Electric Six
Filter
Oingo Boingo
I'm also a huge fan of Eurodance/techno/dance music. I've also been
listening to some rap on the radio time-to-time. No, I don't think
I'm an urban gangster, but some of it is entertaining (ever tried
to critically analyze some of the rap songs out there?)
Also, certain pop music can be quite a bit of fun to dance
to.
And some consistent favorites:
Daft Punk
Paul Oakenfold
Pet Shop Boys
Royksopp
Scooter
Unkle
What I've listened to as of late on my computer.

(D) Pretty much anything other than seafood/fish based stuff.
The six things I could never do without
The internet (addictive), computers (also, addictive, but fun), my
Zune (which gives me background music whenever I need it), friends
(who keep me going), my cell phone (which keeps me in contact with
my family/friends/random folk) and my awesomely falling apart, yet
not falling apart, minivan (which is just awesome).
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Probably a lot of what you think about. I'm sure there are some
differences though as we are all unique.
On a typical Friday night I am
I may be out at work (working on comps... not subbing), at the
movies with a friend, surfing the net or playing video games with
(a) friend(s). I tend to stick to the indoors. One place you will
probably not find me is a live music venue/concert or a bar. I
usually avoid those places.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I am a procrastinator with most things and I require further
education about zombies.
You should message me if
You aren't a trap, would like to educate me about zombies, are into
anime, you are interested in history (specifically 20th century
history) or perhaps you have something new you can expose me to
(such as a museum or sport).
