About Me

Name's Brandon....people call me Quam; my last name...I dunno, it just has a nice ring to it; Quam. A little about me; I'm attending Sam Houston State University on Music Education after having graduated from Blinn College with an A.A. in Music Studies. In my spare time I enjoy indulging in intellectual pleasures. I watch anime (not so much Pokemon'ish/Dragonball'ish stuff....I prefer stuff with a little more substance...there's a lot of anime with artistic consistency out there), I also listen to a lot of different kinds of music...mostly stuff you don't hear on the radio....there's nothing more fun than finding a real gem out there that not alot of people know about. I don't like emo music, or rap (unless it has good bass or some catchy melodic progression in the synthesizers). I also try to move my piece forward in the music world in all that I do.

Your Eternal Question:
"What Impression Am I Giving?" What's Your Power Color?
Your Personality Is
Rational (NT)
You are both logical and creative. You are full of ideas.
You are so rational that you analyze everything. This drives people a little crazy!
Intelligence is important to you. You always like to be around smart people.
In fact, you're often a little short with people who don't impress you mentally.
You seem distant to some - but it's usually because you're deep in thought.
Those who understand you best are fellow Rationals.
In love, you tend to approach things with logic. You seek a compatible mate - who is also very intelligent.
At work, you tend to gravitate toward idea building careers - like programming, medicine, or academia.
With others, you are very honest and direct. People often can't take your criticism well.
As far as your looks go, you're coasting on what you were born with. You think fashion is silly.
On weekends, you spend most of your time thinking, experimenting with new ideas, or learning new things. The Three Question Personality Test
