I'll be rather direct with, probably, one of the most important things most people look at when talking to another person: I'm 285~ lbs, 6'0" for height, and I am definitely far from being the 'slim' fit shape most would prefer. I'm presently twenty three years of age (twenty four in June 2015) and I'm attending college right now (looking to get a BS degree or two). I'm a video-game fanatic. I've been playing games for as long as I remember. I was told I started this career of video games when I was five years old when I played my first gameboy. Back then, I guess that was 1996? The first real game I remember playing was Pokémon Red version. Ever since I played Pokémon back then, I just kept playing and playing until today. It has been nearly sixteen years since I started playing and I don't see myself stopping any time soon.

I own these systems, in regards to gaming: Gameboy Pocket, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Gameboy Advance SP (x2), Nintendo DS Lite, Nintendo DSi, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo Wii (x2), Playstation 3 (Playstation Move included), Xbox 360 (Kinect included). I have a semi-wide array of games, ranging from Resident Evil to LittleBigPlanet (2), to GrandTheftAuto 4/5, to even One Piece Pirate Warriors 1/2 on my PS3. Mostly, I'm against shooter games (never really liked/tried them), but I still like GTA for all the open world play. If it's an Open World style game, or a game where you are able to level characters up in hack-n-slash style play, I'll probably enjoy it. Then we get to sandbox based games. Perhaps you saw this one coming? Minecraft. Out of everything on my desktop, that is probably my most used game on my PC. More than Roller Coaster Tycoon, More than Bloons Tower Defense 5, more than Skyrim, More than Elder Scrolls Online (beta), more than all sixty something games in my Steam profile (same name on there as on here, by the way). If I had a total time log for that, I'd have roughly 4,500~ hours played in Minecraft. Not nearly as much as Pokémon, mind you, but.. close.

Back to the (important) part at hand, yes. I'm 265~ish lbs. Even though it didn't go far before, I dropped from 315~320 lbs before. I did a before photo with a few after photos (most of my shirts fit two and a half of me, now). Can't really say I'm 'proud' of it, as I still have a lot to drop off, still. I'd bet that I'm actually as heavy still because I used to be a weight lifter.

Back in high school, I used to attend weight lifting every year we were allowed to. This was sophomore year and forward until senior year. Unfortunately, I had to stop in the beginning of senior year because of a staph infection. It was fun getting stronger, back then. All the people who used to be in the class helped out, giving challenges, supporting others who needed it. My coach didn't believe I'd be able to use the leg press with eight 45 lbs plates on both the left and right side of the machine (that's roughly 720 lbs), excluding the machine itself. So, with him (and a few other students behind watching (two spotting), I attempted the press. The coach seemed to be trying to motivate me to keep going by calling the presses not 'real' leg presses. In the end I did a whole set. That's just short of three times my own body weight right now.

High school aside, if we're looking for musical interests, I'm narrow-minded. I only have the preference for Rock, some metal (no screamo, though I listen to Bullet for my Valentine), and some techno. I won't mind most music, but I absolutely abhor rap and hip hop. Certain "artists" (using loosely) absolutely bug me. Though I'm getting close to the 4,000 character limit, so I can't go into much detail.

As for college, my two degrees are only Associate of Science degrees. One in Programming and the other in Internet Services Technology. I was a terrible (2.3 GPA) high school student. But in College I managed a 3.31 GPA, so I graduated Cum Laude on two degrees. Not bad, eh?

Here hits the 4,000 limit.
