| Biographical
sketch |
When described by my friends, I
am "the only man who, after curing the common cold, would not celebrate, but
instead work on cancer." Born in Delaware, I have lived
in many places, including North Carolina, Pennsylvania,
Maryland, Delaware, and brief stints in Chicago and
Boston. The big city is nice to visit, but not to live in
(crazy cab drivers...) I currently reside in southeastern
Pennsylvania, in mushroom country.
My relatives besides the obvious (you mean I don't have
parents?!) are my triplet brother and sister. The whole clan is
brown-haired and tall, but after that the resemblence ends. I am
also the uncle of two nieces, daughters of my older half-sister.
As of right now, I am a junior in high school, with planned majors in either
Business Adminstration or Mechanical Engineering. I'm
taking advanced math, physics, economics. According to all of my
English teachers, I have a remarkable talent for the written and spoken
word.
Philosophically, I've been described as an eternal pessimist. The
glass isn't even half-empty, I just keep it away from the faucet
entirely. I believe myself as a realist. Everything's not going to go
the way you expect, so don't anticipate anything. Either way, I'm
a perfectionist to the core, but I don't hesitate to admit I'm wrong when
I'm proven so.
Future aspirations are numerous indeed. Biggest goal is to be seen as a role
model for all people as a person who led a good life.
Other goals picking up a published work with my name on it, and
going of to college to prove my mettle. |

Book |
Most stuff by Tom Clancy,
and of course, almost anything fantastical, especially the great J.R.R.
Tolkien. |
| Favourite
Musician |
My musical taste is very
odd. I like most things with a beat. I've listened
from everything from Dire Straits to Rammstein. I don't
buy music, I just pick a random CD from my sister's, father's, etc.
music collection and listen in. |
| Favourite
Game |
Baldur's Gate series
sticks out, but if it's a game, all you have to do is put it in front of
me and I start to like it. |
| Hobbies |
Reading, writing, playing
computer games, thinking great and wonderous
things, and traveling through time (or at least I plan to). |
