About Me

This profile was created using: ProfileTweaks Editor Ver.2
More or less I am a full time student of History and Medieval Studies at Sir Wilfrid Laurier University. A diabolical mix of majors that makes freetime a passing fancy. However when I do have time to spare on other ventures I immerse myself in Tolkien, the original Star Wars and Dungeons and Dragons. I love folklore and the occult, though not in a creepy 'goat sacrifice and pentagram' kinda way. I am wrestling fan and am master of the The Grail, one of the most destructive finishers ever unleased upon the planet. I think Hulk Hogan will move from demi-god to a full fledged religion when he slips from this realm of exsistance onto the summit of Mt.Olympus, with the likes of Andre and Owen Hart. I have a sick need to collect t-shirts, often to the point of bankruptcy. The more bizarre the better, and if they reference things like Star Wars or DnD I would pay almost anything. Around my place the sounds of Zeppelin can be heard wafting from my room on a constant basis, along with other bands that fall under the classification of 'Classic Rock.' I have a fascination with dinosaurs and other prehistoric life, but realized that there are no real jobs in paleontology. I love both dwarfs and the idea of living in a darrow, though I am sure my seasonal depression would soon have me feeling otherwise. I enjoy the ideology of Communism and the collection of Stalinistic swag. For the most part I am pretty run of the mill. I am a nerd, or a geek or whatever you like to call people who have a room containing comics, action figures and copious numbers of DnD reference guides and posters. However, I revel in my nerdom.

DnD Character:

Dwarven Fighter - short and stout, and easily recognizable by your well-cared-for beard. You are a hard worker, and adept at stonework and engineering. You tend to live apart from other races; generally in deep, underground excavated systems, and as such tend to be distant from other races. You are the warrior and use hammer and axe to accomplish your goals. This isn't to say that you aren't intelligent, but that you do, in fact, believe that violence is frequently the answer.

Music:

I am obviously in love with Led Zeppelin, who are by far the best rock band who has ever graced the planet. I am a fan of classic rock in general with Cream/Eric Clapton, The Band, Pink Floyd and Steely Dan rounding out my top 5..though Black Sabbath is right up there too, Ozzy you so crazy! I am a fan of the Beatles, Bob Marley and the Wailers, The Guess Who, Jimi Hendrix and many more. I also enjoy =w= , Ben Folds and a lot of other emo style stuff. Oh and another all time favorite are those boys from BNL. I can't forget NWA, and Kanye, and a few other rap/hip hop groups. Don't forget to check out my friends list for the new loves in my life Magnus and Think About Life, they be bitchin'. For the most part my musical interests are quite ecclectic, running the gamut from classical and jazz all the way to classic rock and emo. Just keep the techno, trance, and country as far away from my ears as possible.
