About Me

Hi, I'm Michael and I am 19.
I used to play trombone in the high school band and Jazz band.
I graduated on June 10th 2006.
I like to read.
My blood type is O+ and have donated a few times.
I love my girlfriend Emily more than anyone in the world.
Everyone thinks I am Mexican, but I am Dominican. But I'm not like the regular Dominican... I don't like baseball or alcohol.
However my favorite food is Mexican.
At the moment I don't know what I want to do with my life I'm in college just to be in college.
I like recycling.
I guess you could call me an environmentalist but I wouldn't hug a tree to save it's life.
My favorite animal is the Heron. I hate squares for many reasons, I love circles and triangles.
Eastern culture and history is of a great interest to me.
I wish to learn Kendo, Karate, Iaido, or Ninjutsu.
