About Me

Well... Not much to say here. Normal guy, Born in Mexico City. I Came to the U.S. When I was 7. I also like spend a lot of time with the family...but since they're in California and I'm in Texas, It doesn't happen as much as I'd like to. Very few friends, probably cause i'm picky. I've got 2 best friends (Leo And Tom) whom i've known, seems like forever. Just recently finished my Major in Translation & Interpretation Studies (yeah, long name). Also did a second major in Spanish, both from CSULB (go beach!)...I'm new to the Austin area although i've been here 3 or 4 times before ... I Joined myspace a bit late in the game compared to everyone else. But "Mas vale tarde, que llegar todavia con sueÃ±o". Myspace is most of the time a waste of time, but it's awesome when you re-connect with people you thought were gone. I'm a geek at heart, but it's alright, cause if you're reading this, you probably know that already. I like all sorts of music, From 50 Cent (Rap), to Holst (classical), to the Beatles (oldies) to Muse (Alternative). But you can read that in my "favorite music" area. So stick around, you might learn something about me. And if you like what you learn, let me know, add me, or post a comment... ... oh yea... I am also on:
