Another Beginner's Blog

Well hello!

Glad to see you’ve stumbled onto my little piece of the interblags in your web wanderings.
This is the first entry in what should be a series of essays, letters, journalings, what have you, about life as a 21-year-old Christian man at a small, church-affiliated university in Spokane, Washington.

Sound boring? Maybe.

Whether it is or not, I’m going to try and update this at least once every couple of weeks. May not happen, depending on the intensity of the various classes I’m taking, but I’ll try.
A little about me. I’m 21 (duh), a senior at the aforementioned small university, and as sarcastic as (almost) anyone I have ever had the pleasure to be around. I am a math major for fun with a theology major tacked on as a probable career path. Sound complicated? It is. I’ll detail it later. I enjoy good single malt scotch, good chewy beer, good tender steak, and good company. I have been known to smoke a pipe or two. My favorite pastimes are hunting, fishing, and hanging out with the wonderful collection of nerds I call friends. I wear glasses. I love reading all sorts of fiction. I drive a pickup. I was involved in theatre all through high school. I can cook up a mean dinner. I tend to be downright cowardly when it comes to asking a girl out. I think that a fusion of country and metal would be amazing. I drink a few energy drinks. Good coffee is amazing, bad coffee is one step down from a curse of God. If I see someone in trouble, my first instinct is to try and help. I am so white I almost burn in the shade. I get loquacious after 2am. Despite this, I try to be available as a 2am phone buddy when needed. I have a terrible time getting on any sort of sleep schedule.

Oh yeah, and I happen to be Christian. There’s that too. Little bit important. Just the driving force behind my moral framework is all. That thing I try to find my identity in (though I constantly have trouble doing so.)

And that’s it for me, for now. If you decide to come back and visit, you can find out more about the amalgamation of seemingly irreconcilable aspects that is me.
