I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Born in Hawaii but moved around. I'm half Taiwanese and Portugese(my mom is Taiwanese and my dad is mixed European.) I'm a navy brat but managed to stay on the west coast. Graduated from Montgomery High and then the University of California at San Diego. Have a BS in Computer Science and have been thinking about going for a MBA in Information Technologies. Bought a house in El Cajon last year along with a Rat Terrier. I ride a blue Kawasaki ZX6-R when I get the chance and am still waiting on gettin an exhaust for it. I work fulltime at Northrop Grumman IT as a Software Engineer developing software that will hopefully help our boys win wars. I travel when I can and manage to get up to China town every few months. That's me in a nutshell.

My Interests

Movies, Computers, Games, Fantasy/Scifi Books, DvD Collecting, Asian movies

I'd like to meet:

Looking to meet people to hangout and just chill with. Someone to meet after a long days of work to get some coffee or a snack. Perhaps even get back into contact with old friends that I haven't seen in ages.

Music:

Pretty much all types and it varies on my mood. At work I like to listen to instrumental music be it jazz, sound tracks, or classical. While working out I like the more violent rap/alternative stuff. I don't really have a favorite band/artist and probably couldn't name the song on the radio.

Movies:

I really enjoy movies like Braveheart and Robinhood Prince of Thieves. Those two are some of my favorites. If it's Sci-fi or Fantasy I'll probably enjoy it. I have a pretty extensive DvD collection (ask my friends) so it's always movie night at my house. From Scarface to Treasure Planet I have them all. I also have a growing Disney Animation collection that I'm collecting for the future.Japanese Animation is also something that I enjoy. Though I mainly like the older, non-mainstream stuff.

Television:

I really don't watch a whole lot of television. There really isn't a whole lot on that I find good. I do enjoy watching Smallville and OC since my friends are all into it. I also like watching those home improvement/make over shows on TLC and Discovery. Hmmm... most of the things on TLC/Discovery are pretty interesting. I guess its the nerd in me peaking out again.

Books:

Sword of Shannara, Lord of the Rings, Books by Salvatore, Fantasy Fiction

Heroes:

The only person I consider a hero is my father. He has always been the cornerstone and guiding influence in my life. Someone I can count on to be honest with me and to give me advise when I need it (or even when I don't need it.)
