About Me

My name is Rob and I like cheeseburgers. Read on if you wanna know more. Im a dedicated soldier, caring parent, unhalting party animal, intellectual jackass and functioning drunk. Being born in San Pedro Sula, Honduras and then moving to the United States when I was 13, I have always known what is like to live in a free country, wether its poor or not. I have always had an overwhelming need to save the free world and protect our decadent style of life so I graduated high school, war broke out and I went in the military. I did a looong one year deployment in the Middle East serving with the 101st Airborne Division, my unit therein the 506th Infantry Regiment, known widely for the HBO miniseries Band of Brothers. I served three years there with the best light infantry company, proven time and time again. Im currently just getting started on the second half of my Army experience here on Fort Hood, Texas. I enjoy extreme hobbies that sometimes annoy my significant other, such as Paintball and the sport of Hockey. Videogaming is big with me too but not as much as the first two. I have a beautiful 6 year old little boy that is my driving force to press on thru the rough spots on the road of life. I am usually a highly energetic kinda person but I usually counter that by moving at the rate of a throw rug on percocet some days when im just not feelin it, specially now that im recuperating from the deployment I've just underwent. There is more to me, I just cant really write volumes about myself when im sober I guess. ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ................................

You are Fire - Quick tempered, passionate, constantly moving and acting upon everyone and everything around you. You create intense relationships, and deep connections with those strong enough to be near you for long. Your chaotic by nature, but can be a strong leader if you can discipline yourself. You love being the center of attention, but often take criticism too personally. Your anger flares intensly and you often speak or act before you think of the consequences. Seek water to balance your fire, Air will work you into a frenzy, and Earth will snuff your flame.
