Hello Darryl and extended forum

Simon, 20, currently in Edinburgh, Scotland but I split my time between there, NYC, and Gent, Belgium. I'm a comp sci student at uni here, and plan on attending some sort of other higher education that would involve preferably graphic design or computer arts.

I love music, snowboarding, playing guitar, and sleeping. Sleeping is the best. Sleeping is rad.

On my bedside table is 1 flask, 1 Nine Stories by Salinger, 1 lime green gameboy color with pokemon yellow (or tetris) in it, 1 recorder, 1 book on cryptography, 50 little vouchers for dominoes pizza deals.

Summer after graduation The Plan is to go WWOOFing across Southern America, traveling between places by biking. This is something that I am really excited about.

(also, what are you at UMB for? Once I get my associates, I'm transferring there for Marketing)

Hmm, not sure! I don't think I was actually aware of it at the time. I'm currently undeclared at UMB, probably going to be majoring in music though, possibly minoring/doubling in philosophy or political science.

EDIT: Shane, when do you think you're transferring?

Hello, introduce yourself take 2!

I am Mari (pronounced more like Mah-ree than Mary, I think), and I just turned 22. I hail from the great North, aka Northern Norway, but I'm currently attending university a bit further south. I'm hopefully on my way to a master's degree in computer science, but I guess we'll see how that goes. I'm about halfway there now. This basically means I'm a bit of a geek, but not as knowledgable as I should be to be a "real" geek. Working on that, though.

When I'm not trying to get through school, I watch a lot of TV shows (not TV in general, just specific shows mostly) or sports (especially Norwegian football, with my favourite team being Bodø/Glimt, but also a lot of winter sports). I also knit, watch movies, juggle (not any good) and sometimes work out or read. I sadly mostly read things required for school (or, you know, things online), and I don't even do enough of that, but at least it's something. What I do most of, though, is spend a fuckton of time online doing absolutely nothing of significance, which I guess is kinda sad. But I'm improving, at least.

Me llamo Jason.

I'm a 19 year old guy living in the US, right on the border between Wisconsin and Illinois, about an hour from Chicago. Going to a Liberal Arts college, where I'm double-majoring in International Relations and Spanish and minoring in Music. I am horrible at maths.

Music is pretty alright in my book. My musical talent is the one thing I allow myself to be kind of proud and occasionally boastful about. I've been playing piano since first grade, trumpet since 4th, guitar since 5th, singing since 6th and started violin last year.

Travelling is kind of my thing, whether by car, boat, train or plane. I've been to all 50 states except Maine and Hawaii.  I've been to all of Western Europe and plan on studying abroad in either Spain or Turkey. I want to go to countries in Eastern Europe (Finland, Estonia, Ukraine, Russia. Croatia, Greece, Turkey), South America (Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia), South-east Asia (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand), the Middle East (Syria, Iran) and the Great Lakes region of Africa (Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania)

Politics, news and current events are big interests of mine, mostly on the international level. I'm somewhat afflicted with cartocacoethes , the inclination to see maps everywhere. Countries are artificial entities, but I find them fascinating. I find science fascinating, but I kind of suck at it class-wise.

Also to be completely honest, I'm not sure why I'm a member of these forums.
