Thirty-two feet per second I increase, as the exponents will multiply.
I'll never stop to look back behind me, cutting through the bright blue sky.
And this is how it's meant to be, untethered I will soar.
I'll barrel towards the earth below, it's what I was made for.
Hulking, smashing, I come crashing, nothing like when I was small.
I am unstoppable, I am the cannonball.
I am 20 years old, originally from Atlanta, GA, and call Lawrenceville, GA my hometown (though I’ve lived in 6 cities in 4 states (see Places. I am currently enrolled in the Associate of Fine Arts program at COA-Elizabeth City, the town in which I have lived since April, 2000. I am a former Music Major and attended UNCG during the 2004-2005 academic year. While I still plan to minor in music (see Wikipedia:Instruments below and to right) I plan to pursue a career in Ministry, probably Youth Ministry, though I’m not entirely sure where at the moment.
As stated above, I am a musician and play 10 instruments that I can think of, at varying degrees of suckiness (again, see Wikipedia:Instruments).
I’m really into all kinds of music. I like just about everything but Country, however odd that might be for someone who spent 10% of their life in Mississippi. Some of my personal favorite artists are (sort of alphabetically):
Artists I have seen in concert are indicated in Bold text. Everyone I've seen in concert is also listed below, followed by number of times (if more than 1).
Better Than Ezra, Bleach, Caedmon's Call, CKY, The The Everyones, Five Iron Frenzy, Holland, Micah Tawlkes Band (x2), Jason Mraz, Jet, The O.C. Supertones, Pillar (x2), Relient K, Sloan, Third Day
I’m a runner, though not as much anymore as I should be. For someone who used to do it all the time, I’m still pretty slow, though. My personal record (by a large margin) time for the mile is 5:32, and for the course (3.1 mi/5 km) is 21:30 (also by a slightly lesser but still rather large margin). Running is wonderful. It clears your mind. Except when it’s cold. I hate cold, and loathe running in it. Then all you’re thinking about is “@#$%&, IT’S COLD!” (which is not a good thing).
Gigantic fan of both Star Wars trilogies (In order of preference: IV, III, V, VI, II, I). I still want to be a Jedi when I grow up. Favorite characters: R2-D2, Yoda, Wedge Antilles, Face Loran, Corran Horn, Kit Fisto. The whole saga and Expanded Universe is incredible. One of my earliest childhood memories is watching Han Solo push Chewbacca down the Death Star garbage chute. Why I remember that more than the famous Star DestroyerDevastator vs Tantive IV battle at the beginning of the movie, I have no idea. I suppose it just appealed to a 4-year-old. But in any case, I’ve been a fan ever since.
Special effects, the world controlled by machines, and poppin’ pills with Laurence Fishburne. “Can life get any better? I submit that it cannot!” (Brian Regan quote especially for Amanda). But wait… The Woman in the Red Dress and the Tasty Wheat conversation? Better it gets already! And that’s just the first movie.
I first discovered Wikipedia through my friend Aaron, an avid, though anonymous contributor to the wiki world. It was not, however, until I happened by chance upon the Venator Star Destroyer article that I really started to realize the general intelligence and amazingness of Wikipedia and Wiki Software. I began editing and created a username to see what it was all about. I’ve become more and more hooked on reading and contributing to the wiki world since.
