My favorite color is blue. It is a calm and soothing color. And it is the color of the jeans that I like to wear. I really enjoy playing music. Whenever I start to feel bad about something, I sit down with my guitar and I start to feel a lot better about things. I'm not entirely sure why. I love listening to good music, watching good movies, and hanging out with good people [although I like (some) bad people as well]. I work with and enjoy using computers. I spend a lot of time messing around doing stupid stuff, and I sometimes feel like nothing really matters. When that happens, I like to listen to good music by good bands, like Pinback, and everything is good again. Some people might describe me as communist, socialist, anti-American, or anti-Bush. None of these things are true, or all of these things are true - you take your pick. I enjoy eating food way too much, but I think I burn most of it off by doing crazy things like jumping over bushes and fences and stuff. I jumped over Mike C's hood once but I hit my knee on the way and fell on the ground and maybe dented his car. I don't really know. I think my dream job is to sit in a think tank with my friends and figure out ways to make life better for everyone. I don't get mad really easily...except if somebody does something to injure me (like whip my hand with a jumprope). Watch out if I do get angry, because I am known to be a ninja (although most people who find that out die shortly afterward). Sports are cool, but I'm cooler. I forgot to say that math is one of the coolest and most rewarding things I've ever been able to do...not rewarding like I get money to do it (not yet, at least), but rewarding like I really feel good about myself when I solve a particularly difficult or challenging math problem. Fellow math enthusiasts, you know exactly what I'm talking about. I like to tell people my dad is Mexican, because his name is Carlos, but honestly, I don't know what he is, except that he is pretty cool (see "heroes").
