THE Marcus To!

About Me

My story begins in a backwater little city called Red Deer (and yes, there were red deers around) growing up in the most boring and uneventful way imaginable. But all was not lost, when friendship stayed true, my friends got me through the lame days of my youth, the only thing that we did was play hockey, draw and hurt each other in creative ways. Then one faithful day my family moved to Calgary where my new life began a new and was dubbed sexiest man alive at William Aberhart high school (self proclaimed of course), But yet again I was forced to move away from friends and family to Vancouver where I studied 3D animation at Capilano College and a year later I returned to Calgary a changed man, a jobless man. So I decided to engage in the perils of University life where I was thwarted by the evil acronyme GPA which ended my short lived quest to become a programmer. But all all was not lost when I decided to jouney to the uncharted Los Angeles where I achieved my greatest goal, to become a recluse comic book artist. For those who actually read this you have too much time on your hands, leave a comment peace outside.

My Interests

Comics and Hockey





Music:

I have a pretty wide variety of music i like, mostly chinese stuff like Jay Chow, Ekin Cheng, Andy Lau, Wendy Lan, David Tao. I also like the Dandy Warholls, The Darkness, Bob Dylan, Led Zepplin, The Beatles. I like House too but I don't follow that enough to know any names and stuff.

Movies:

I like most kinds of movies, Young and Dangerous, Saint of Gamblers, Xmen, X2, Spiderman 1 and 2, Shawshank Redemption (actually any Morgan Freeman movie is usually good), Ninja Turtles. I could go on but I can't think of any more right now.

Television:

TV is the devil, cause I like it too much, I need to get work done so I can get paid. The only thing I watch now is Hockey when I can get it on tv.
