About Me

I'm maybe not the best to describe myself. It seems I see myself much differently than others see me.
I fancy technology. I grew up with the 8-bit nintendo. I work with computers. Dabble in some hobby programming. Someday I want to make my own video game. someday...
Roleplaying games are a favorite. Final fantasy, Suikoden, Dragon Warrior.
i dig music. techno and alternative mostly.
This rocks:
i'll post more as it comes to me.

My score on.. The Politics Test :

Social Liberal
(You scored 76% Personal Liberty and 38% Economic Liberty!)

A social liberal believes in little to moderate government intervention on personal matters and moderate to high government intervention on economic matters. They tend to be opposed to war, police powers, victimless crimes, and what they may consider to be a corporate state or rogue capitalism. They generally support personal liberty and believe in a social safety net or welfare state. They support self-ownership and privacy. Social liberals are essentially the "mainstream" left and left of center.
