About Me

I'm from West Virginia and attend WVU (West Virginia University). I'm a double-major in English and Political Science. I'm a serious student who enjoys what he studies, I'm highly motivated, but I also love to party when I can. After I graduate (1-2 years) I want to travel quite a bit internationally, live in India possibly, or Israel, maybe join the Peace Corps, and then go to grad school. There's more but it's too hot to type right now.
