About Me

~Life is chasing around inside of me like squirrel!~
--------------------------------------------
Well, welcome. I suppose you should be commended for discovering this little corner of the web. Not that you'll find much here to spend your time with +)
I'm Brian, or Watson to some... "Sqweeker" to even fewer. I'm a college student who sells furniture, takes classes on education and theater, acts when I can, and draws when I shouldn't (ie: durning lectures). I'm a huge fan of Star Wars, and I'll come right out and say that the Prequel Trilogy was entertaining to an extent, but wholey unable to compare with the rest of the series. I am not, however, sickeningly obsessed. I enjoy a good anime flick or run of episodes and am a wizard at all manner of games. Which, i suppose, would put me in the whole "Geek-Gamer-Japanophile" sub-culture of America. As much as I rile against this stereotype, if the shoe fits....
Um... okay. I can think of anything other than I sing, dance (like an idiot), act (or try to), love music (except, of course, rap hiphop and country[don't hurt me]) love working with kids, and happen to be under the notion that I'm a pretty nice guy.
You scored as Dread Pirate Roberts. Letting people think you are a billy bad ass keeps you in business but when it comes down to it, you'll do the right thing every time. You are a good person at heart and just can't help being the hero.

Wait.. what? I blogged??! Um... I think I'll have to shoot myself now.

I just came to realized that for all the time I've had this thing, I've never once used the blog section. I never figured myself much of a quote-end-quote "blogger" since my angsty highschool days on ...
