High Schools almost over!

About Me


Try the BEST MySpace Editor at MySpace Toolbox ! Hey, my name is Alex and I was born in Zaragoza, Spain. My family was in the military so I've lived in Spain, Germany, England, Wichita Falls and San Antonio, Texas, Yorktown, Virginia and now i'm finally back in TX since my dad retired. I live in Corinth now and go to Lake Dallas High School. I love the San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks and the Dallas Cowboys. Now that high school is coming closer to an end for me, I will be off to college and have chosen to go to Houston Baptist University. I received an Endowed Academic Scholarship worth 3/4 of 4 years worth of tuition, and since HBU is a dual major school, I plan to major in Biology and Chemistry (I also want to take Spanish courses over the summers so I can get a minor). After getting my bachelor's I plan to attend medical school and want to become a doctor. I hardly get on aim (sn: ThatSparkMan) so hit me up on myspace instead, much easier to reach me that way.

My Interests

Um...On my free time I guess I could say that I am a gamer, although most gamers are actually really good at games...i'm not very good but I like games, haha. Every once in a while I read and sometimes pick up the guitar and try to learn a new song or two, but overall I'm just one of those people that can't really stay interested in one thing very long. I love to explore new things but I don't really stick to one thing. I'm a very science/math oriented person and tend to be pretty analytical. Even though I am more into science, I also enjoy art and for a first year art student as a senior I think I'm pretty good. I medaled recently in a state competition but sadly didn't make it past district, hahah. Even though I like art, I don't picture myself doing it on my free time, lol. I like to be at school for the sole reason of being able to be around people and socialize. If there is one thing that I can say I will always like, its basketball. Even though I don't play too frequently, it's something that I always find myself coming back to.

Music:

I listen to Rap, R&B, and Rock. My favorite musical artist by far has to be Seal. His music is great. I've always liked more "mellow" music, but recently I went through a stage in which I find myself obsessed with "mellow" music. I found myself listening to a whole lot of John Legend recently, but for the past two weeks I have come back to rock after about a year of not listening to it by my own choice. Lol, I got my dad a three days grace cd and since then have been listening to rock more often again.

Movies:

Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny rocked my socks....movies are good....Red Vs. Blue Rules, although I doubt that the extreme amount of short flicks dont qualify as a movie...

Television:

I love House, Smallville, Bones, Heroes (STAN LEE RULES!!!), and Prison Break which saps my mind as I wait for the neverending show to come up with another twist as it drags out every minute....I keep up with American Idol and I like to watch Miami Ink sometimes. I even watch two chick-flickish night soaps (One Tree Hill and Ugly Betty). Overall, Prime Time T.V. is the T.V. for me. DVR rules too....

Books:

I enjoy reading but have a hard time figuring out my taste in books. I guess I like a multitude of books, nothing in particular. Im a big geeky Harry Potter fan and can't wait for book 7 (HP and the Deathly Hallows) to come out. I really enjoyed Angels&Demons and the DaVinci Code, both by Dan Brown. I also end up liking most books that I am required to read for school even though must people can't appreciate them (Les Miserables in particular was a great book). One book I would advise most people to stray away from would be The Picture of Dorian Gray; the book was very gloomy and dragged out the plot as it basically identified and studied the maturing of a very naive, handsome young man into a monster. He went from experiencing his first love to ruining peoples lives and sleeping around. This study on the pitfalls of man can definately be described as a downer....Yup, anyways, reading is good.
CAN'T WAIT FOR HP&tDH

Heroes:

Stan Lee is the Hero of all Heroes; he invented heroes for god's sake, hahaha. Marvel RULES.
