Summing up myself in 1 page feels a little bit like summing up star wars by saying “Good guy saves world, has son, turns bad, son stays good, they fight, the end” (Oh, sorry, forgot to put that in <spoiler> tags). Basically, I’m a 15 year old geek and the stereotypical mac user (That’s 2 of Victor Cajiao *). Justin Long? Pfft, I’m way snootier than him. I would spit in John Hodgemans face if I didn’t think that would ruin my chances of getting his autograph and possibly a picture with him, the type where I awkwardly attempt to put my arm around him even though we’ve never actually met before.
My life is essentially a re-imagining of XKCD into a high school comedy. I would call it “High School Geekical”, and it’s theme tune would be the audio of the original Apple II cassette (No pun intended *). I would then sell the rights to Disney so that they could create a new generation of super-geeks by making hundreds of crappy sequels and marketing them towards 5 year old girls. I am very weird. I digress.
I think I’m overdoing the weird a bit. I’m actually a pretty normal teenager. I can raise some hell if required, I hate homework more than anything, I listen to music way too loud, and I stay up way too late. I’m a Coke addict, and by that I mean the popular Atlanta-based soft drink, not the drug (seriously, druggies, give our word back, we’ll fight you and probably win since we’re loaded with caffeine and you’re loaded with tar). I live in Massachusetts, which is pretty normal, I mean, I could be living in the Antarctic or something, so Massachusetts is relatively sane.
What it comes down to is: I’m a geek, and I’m proud of it. I’m getting into software development with my upcoming vector animation app, TiMo. I’m getting into web design with, well, you’re looking at it. I’m on a bunch of podcasts (iEye, which hasn’t been on for awhile, IMP Live, etc). I use Twitter a lot, as well as Facebook, Tumblr, and Wordpress (which, again, you are currently looking at).
I’m also known for being quite the awesome-addict. See those pictures up there? Of course you did, unless you have your browser start at the bottom and scroll up. Look at them again, they’re not photoshopped at all, they were greenscreened by Photo Booth, of all things. Was is easy? Not really. Are the results good? Not really. Could I have photoshopped them instead? Yup. But that would have been far less awesome, so that’s how I roll.
I’m stopping now before I weird you out anymore.
