My self-summary
Well, summaries are always fun. They give us a chance to talk about ourselves, and most people (including me) think that they are the most important person on Earth. It's not really narcissism; think of it as a necessity for self-preservation.

Anyway, I do believe that I am a pretty good guy. I'm pretty nice, honest, trustworthy, and very supportive. I'm the kind of guy that'll say you did a great job, even if you necessarily didn't. Of course, if you ask for my honest opinion, that's a different story.

Generally, I like computers, video games, animation, music, reading, writing (sometimes), walking, talking to people, sleeping, and eating. Food is VERY delicious. Sometimes, I can be quite shy, especially if I feel uncomfortable, but it doesn't take much for me to open up. There's another thing about me; generally, it doesn't take much to piss me off, nor to make me happy.

I'm not too much into doing flashy things or going to expensive dinners or anything like that; I prefer the more simple things in life as far as hanging out is concerned. But, don't take away my technology; I thrive on that. Did I mention that I LOVE technology? And, if you get me open enough, I can have enough energy to bounce off of walls and levitate and cause random explosions!

Yeah...all of that pretty sums up me.

I am intelligent, somewhat shy, and opinionated

What I’m doing with my life
Right now, I attend Wayne State University looking to get a degree in Computer Science. It's not too hard, but I honestly wish I had the aptitude to do something else. I'm also currently working on campus as part of phone technical support. It's a basic job where I answer phone calls and help people with their basic computer problems; it's really fun to me, I have great co-workers and it's making me feel that I'd be best successful in a job where I have to interact with people. This is one of the reasons why I keep re-thinking my choice in my degree; people are lots of fun!

I’m really good at
Like I mentioned before, I'm pretty good at teaching things to people and being supportive in general. I'm also pretty good with computers; I work best in Windows, I'm learning Mac, Linux is okay (so far only Backtrack, Puppy Linux, and Ubuntu though) and I do really well with troubleshooting computer problems. I'm more of a jack-of-all-trades person, but at the same time, I do best when it's hardware not related to printing or networking.

The first things people usually notice about me
Probably the way I speak; when I start talking, it's like I'm a different person than from the way I look. They also tend to notice my eyes; I personally think they're pretty bright and good looking.

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Books: Fiction stopped interesting me much after elementary school, so I now prefer non-fiction books. These include magazines, manuals, how-to books, etc. For some specifics:

Magazines: TIME, US News & World Report, National Enquirer
Newspapers: Detroit News
Books: The "For Dummies" series, Robert Monroe's "Journeys out of the Body", "Far Journeys", "Ultimate Journey", Personality Theories by George Berne, The Underground History of Education by John Taylor Gatto, The Celluloid Closet (not an extreme favorite though)

Movies: Not too big on movies, but I like documentaries, comedies, and family movies. For some specifics:
The Incredibles
The Celluloid Closet
Boys in the Band
This Film Is Not Yet Rated
Bedtime Stories
Get Rich or Die Tryin'
All of the Pokémon movies
Who's Your Caddy
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Crazy, Stupid Love

Music: Generally, I'll listen to anything if it has a catchy beat and the singer isn't too bad. The only thing I absolutely despise is country music. IT JUST PLAIN SUCKS. Period. But, the majority of the time, I listen to game music and J-Pop (didn't really get into music with singing in it until I was in the 8th grade).
Favorite Artists/Bands/Duos:
John Legend
Kanye West
Sara Bareilles (LOVE!)
India.Arie (not a big fan)
Jill Scott (not a big fan)
Every Little Thing (LOVE!)
Makihara Noriyuki
hitomi
Asian Kung-Fu Generation (not a big fan though)

Food: I LOVE ITALIAN FOOD! But, since I don't get to eat it as often as I want to (which is almost never), my diet consists of stuff like pork steak, rice (LOVE!) pork chops, chicken, Kool-Aid/grape drink, and cookies. I LOVE CHOCOLATE, and if I had enough money, I'd probably buy a box or more of chocolate, like Reese's Peanut Butter cups or Reese's Fast Break (LOVE!). I used to be really skinny (around 120 lbs), but that was about 4 years ago; I'm now in a better situation where I can eat a whole lot more, so I'm now getting up to 130 lbs and I hope I can get even higher than that!

The six things I could never do without
1.) THE INTERNET! My life as it is now wouldn't exist without the internet.
2.) MY COMPUTER! Nothing I do now could exist without me using computers.
3.) MY MP3 PLAYER! I LOVE listening to music, and this makes it that much easier. :)
4.) MY HEADPHONES! Mine are the sound-canceling kind, so not only do I get great sound (warm bass, low mids, and crisp trebles) but I can also use them to ignore people I don't like :)
5.) MY GMAIL ACCOUNT! I've had one since 7th grade, and it's been heaven ever since then...ONE OF THE BEST FREE MAIL SERVICES EVER!
6.) MY SMARTPHONE! I'd never thought I'd have a use for one, until I got one...now it's the most useful tool in my life :)

I spend a lot of time thinking about
In general, everything. From imaginary conversations with people I'll never have a chance to speak with to thinking about a melody line for a song to Pokémon and Pokémon attacks. I used to daydream A LOT, but I haven't had one in a long time and I miss them :(

On a typical Friday night I am
Usually on my computer playing video games or reading or watching Youtube or something like that. Sometimes I go out, but I don't really like to unless I'm with friends or something like that.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Wellllllll...yeah. I'd say that I had this crush on this straight guy when I was 9 and he still doesn't know that I did. At least, I don't think he knows.
