Who are you?

Ok well im still kinda new to this and I dont know very many people so I thought Id create a thread to find out more about you guys. So this is helpful for me, and anyone else new or just people who wanna learn new things about others on this forum.

Just tell us what you do, and anything else about yourself that we (well especially me) might not know about you.

So Ill start,
My name is Sara. Im 19 i go to Eastern Michigan University and Im studying psychology. Im taking 18 credits right now and working, and working out. I work on campus at this school for kids because kids are basically my life! I have 5 siblings, 2 sisters, 3 brothers. my oldest brother is 20 yrs older than me!! and i have a twin bro. I have three beautiful nieces and one more (maybe nephew???) on the way. And then hopefully my own kid in maybe 2 years??? yea we will see. lol And Im in a relationship with a great guy, and its been like 3 years and 4 months. I think we will be getting married in 2 years assuming things are still this good. And hopefully engaged in a year. I want to be a young mom. Im hoping to look fit and be able to keep doing the workouts Im doing now, after I have kids so I can stay fit.
I can be shy and quiet until you get to know me, then im constantly talking and laughing.
Ok your turn! :D

My turn??

My name is Ian, and I am 23 years old. I graduated from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh in 2005. I work for a large accounting firm in their Risk Advisory Practice. I practically live out of a suitcase, which tends to be a little tough on dieting and working out, but I do the best I can. I am single, and unlike Sara, don't see myself settled down in the near future :) that's not necessarily by choice, but my line of work doesn't leave me with too much free time. I am very career oriented, and I think that drive carried over into my newly discovered love of fitness. If and when I get some time for sports, I usually play soccer, tennis, or go skiing, and i also play for a tournament paintball team.
 
WOW, someone else graduated from Duquesne University??/ My wife Graduated from there I think it was 1995. She is a Pharmacist.

I'm Originally from NJ, graduated from Montclair State University, and I currently work for Large telecom company in the Network Surviellence group in Georgia, Yep they moved my northern butt down to the south.

Been working out since April.... The toughest thing for me is the Diet...I am a very picky eater.

I met my husband during my first attempt at college in which I went with him to CT (Manchester then Ellington) for his internship which turned into two and half years there after he accepted a position within the company. We married in Stowe,VT and had a daughter, Kaleigh (who is currently 3yrs old). Then we moved back TX 2yrs ago where I resumed my education. I'm in my Jr. yr at Lamar University. My degree is in Finance. I've been interested in fitness since I was 17 or 18 but haven't been consistent with it until earlier this yr.
The End.
 
Hi I'm Chris - resident Welshman of these here parts.

Sport is a big part of my life - play rugby these days - work as a computer programmer as well after completing my Computer Science degree this last summer.

I play a lot of Rugby, and coach a kids soccer team - so sport is a major part of my life - as is keeping myself fit for this, and improving my physical strengths to develop further.
 
My name is Maria, and I am a San Diego, California native. I'm 17-years-old, turning 18 in December. I'm currently a freshman in college majoring in kinesiology and minoring in nutrition. I plan on getting my certifications soon and becoming a personal trainer at my local gym as a little headstart for my career. I originally started weightlifting when I was 16, but quit after a few months since I wasn't happy with my results. I came back to it this past July with a ton more knowledge and have learned from my mistakes. Now I'm seeing great results. :)

I play guitar, piano, and will soon purchase myself a decent drumset to bang on. I've been writing and recording songs for almost 3 years...it's a fun lil time killer. Other hobbies of mine include playing with my old-school 1984 Nintendo system, drawing/sketching, painting, and hanging out with my best friend.

That is all.
 
I'm Jenny, I am a junior and resident underachiever at the University of Indianapolis School of Music. My major is Clarinet. I like to have adventures and fail classes. And eat way too much junk food. I'm terrible at being healthy, although I do try. I'm a cat person. My sign is Gemini. When I'm in a bad mood, I play a techno song called "I just wanna be a drummer." I wish I could play the harmonica like a badass. I'm not married. I have curly hair. My summer job is Art/music/recreational therapy and it's sweet fun. My computer does me more harm than good. It smells good outside right now. Chrissmith921 makes me laugh with his foreigness and lack of football knowledge. On that note, I love football, Colts baby, all the way. Don't say anything. You know who you are. (Brandi, Merc....a few others) My friends call me Sharky. I'm 21 years, 3 months, and 25 days old. I'm part of an elite group called the Triforce, and I have a goofy looking face.

The end.
 
Hello, I'm Scott, and I'm addicted to enorphines.

I consider myself to be a militant geek cause I like geeky things like pcs, video games, and so forth; but I'm also ex-military, fitness-oriented, and (unlike the geek steretype) actually have social skills and a spine.

Turned 30 in June, currently working on an associate's in network engineering (one quarter and two certs away from employable, 7 quarters away from graduation).

I live in Huntsville, AL where I am currently planning to take over the world. I love techno, rock, and rap (gets me fired up to lift); have read more books than you have had dates (even you, you Don Juan types), and despise stereotypes. Geek power!!!!! Oh yeah, diet is my weakest link right now, if only eating right caused that wonderful endorphine rush....
