The personal side of AT Options

[Astrid]

Sitting here in the school library between classes, ultimately bored and exhausted, I've come up with an idea some of you may either immediately disregard as a waste of time or find some interest in. What is it that we do? How many of us are high school students? College students? Which major? How many of us have completed that tedious part of our lives and achieved a career?

I'm a college student, who after months of trial-and-error has finally settled on Philosophy as an appropriate major. I entered school as a psych major, then chem, then physics, then math, then philosophy and physics, and now just philosophy I finally realized that I wasted entirely too much time trying to pick one and just decided to go for the shortest and most enjoyable. Nothin' better than arguing with a classful of people about the validity of the substance of an inanimate object :D Anyway, I plan to eventually become a professor and mess with my own students' minds. I'll throw enough Nietzsche, Plato and Descartes their way to make them question society and reality all the way to the looney bin. I love my major :D How about you guys?

Also, hobbies. Other than gaming, do you guys like anything? I used to take martial arts for a very brief period of time, but temporarily injured my knee, so I'll switch to archery until it heals. I'd call myself an avid comicbook fan, but after recieving more disappointing news in the direction of the X-Titles, I plan to quit them cold turkey (I've said this at least a million times in the past).

Any writers out there? If so, please participate in the FFXI role playing game on http://www.geneticrevolution-home.com (Heh! Shameless plug )

Anyway, this happens to be the aftermath of my sleepless, in-between-class, Tuesday boredom.

ok ok ...

i'm an on-again, off-again writer/"artist"/idea man/cartoonist/hatemonger/satirist ... oh and a drunk. i'm heavily tattooed, enjoy motorcycles, barroom brawls, hockey, living the white trash lifestyle, bad tv, drinking, anime, horror movies, celtic art, any channel on the discovery network (discovery, history, tlc, bbc), history, videogames and long walks on the beach at night... hahaha. there have been 4 attempts on my life at various stages of it, honest injun. somehow i managed to find a woman who doesn't mind these things, though. amazing. i spend entirely too much time on videogames and comic books.. money too. uhh.. this is fucking retarded.. ok ok i'll continue.. i live in boston.. well not in the city anymore, the suburbs.. i got tired of living in the slums, so i moved to the south shore.. which is now becoming a slum.. fucking lovely. i don't play well with others, especially if i'm drinking. but i've been fight free for about a year now. woohoo.. boring, but the gf is happier. i work for one of boston's larger universities doing monkey work for the IT department. it's a living, but not very satisfying. at the end of the work day i come home, get drunk, and play videogames until i pass out from booze or exhaustion. i hate just about everybody. don't it personal... actually do. haha. what few friends i have find it odd that someone with such misanthropic tendencies not only chooses to interract with people in videogames and to a lesser extent online, but that i seem to enjoy it. it's some kind of dissociation thing most likely... i'm sure the shrinks would say it's healthy for me. hahaha. at the AT BBQ, i'd be the guy sitting on the cooler, by the keg, alone, enjoying my beer and exchanging jokes, odd stories, and quips with people who went to get a refill.. then i'd drive home drunk entirely too fast on my bike, and hope i didn't crash or get pulled over, pass out and wonder why there's blood on my pillow. mine? someone elses? who knows? the joy of it all. hahaha. all right enough fun... anyway for all my faults, i'm a reasonable enough fellow, and i do have fun with all of you retards, go figure...
