My Mom’s Filipino and my Dad’s some standard version of white. What exactly that makes me ethnically, I’m not sure. All I know is it makes things a bit more difficult when filling out census forms.
I got an older brother, two years senior to me. We look nothing alike, but people say we do for some reason. He’s a doctor doing his residency in New York City. He’s a something-or-other-ologist. I forget which one exactly. All I know is he’s the kind that cuts up dead people. Fun stuff.
I have a less-thrilling job of graphic designer. I’m currently employed by Orbitz.com and have been there for over three years now. Before you ask, no, I don’t get discounts on travel. My brother doesn’t get discounts on surgery either.
I currently live somewhere left of Chicago in a suburb called Burr Ridge and take the train downtown each day to get to work. I spend most of my half-hour commute either sleeping, reading comics, or staring at the creepy guy who always lets his mouth hang open that usually sits across from me. I like to call him Petey. He looks like a Petey.
If you didn’t figure already, I’m kind of a strange fellow, but I’ve gotten pretty used to myself. I like Superman and toys and other geeky things. I hate wearing socks. I can’t dance and hide when people ask me to. I secretly want to be a writer and hope one day to tell Green Lantern what to say. I love watching squirrels. And I think that girls with glasses are the cutest.
Other than that, I’m a pretty normal fellow. At least that’s what the people who don’t really know me tell me. In truth, I’m pretty damn odd. If I were my brother, I would just love to dissect myself to see what the hell is wrong with me. But that would probably hurt.
And that’s briefly me. I really am more interesting than the previous couple of paragraphs, I swear. If you want to know more, send me off an email or something. I got plenty of stories. Unfortunately, most of them involve a toilet in some way.
