About Me

Whatup. I'm PFC Matt Mikolas, about to be in Iraq for my first deployment for Operation Iraqi Freedom. It's going to be a long year, but I'm going to take the most out of it that I can. I have a great support system from my family and friends. Everyone, thanks for believing in me and all your prayers and thoughts. Any support or emails, comments, anything you guys can do to continue making me remember home as much as you can is always greatly appreciated. My normal email is [email protected]. Army= [email protected]. Thanks for all your support. GO SEAHAWKS!!!

My Interests

Seattle Seahawks, (this is the year!!) Poker, singing badly at karaoke, anything fun really.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone willing to take the time to get to know me

Music:

Hip-hop, and anything i can dance to, pretty much; Light Rock, and Classic Rock

Movies:

Crash is my new number one! If you haven't seen it, go out right now and get it it's the best movie I've ever seen. I love The Matrix, All of the Lord of the Rings movies, especially the third one, and anything that will make me laugh. I also am a sap for the romantic, light chick flick like My Best Friends Wedding, or 50 first dates.

Television:

It doesn't get better than Boy Meets World. Home Improvement, Friends, and WWE are also pretty high up there. And of course, SEAHAWKS GAMES!!
