Introductions


My third post should clue you in where I am right now and where I came from. I am a 25 year old guy in Houston, a transplant from the Philippines.

My first post should clue you in on topics that I like. I have a keen interest in politics, moreso when I moved here than I was back home. Actually, I don't think that's fair. I was not even an adult when we moved here, and I was slowly getting interested in politics back home. I guess I can chalk that up to youthful arrogance.

I like my culture a lot, which is why it will probably be featured here a lot. Again, interestingly enough, moreso after moving here to Houston. I was never homesick, but I do like to surround myself with Filipino products and food, and push Asian onto everyone. I read up on old mythologies and folk tales out of pure interest. What can I say, I like being Filipino and Asian.

I am also into gadgets as I've mentioned before. I like shiny shiny things that beep and sometimes, shoot out bolts of electricity, stunning rodents and other small mammals. I am not a huge tech guy, I can't tell apart the business end of a server terminal from its face. I like to believe I know my way around the basics.

So that's it! None of these makes me qualified to offer opinions on various subjects, but I believe it will allow me to bullshit my way through it.
