ABOUT ME
My name is Chris and I'm white. I'm open minded with quite a lot, not much fazes me anymore. I pretty good at cooking because I tend to be a picky eater. Because of that I cooked a lot for myself growing up. I enjoy comedy and harbor a secret desire to try stand up comedy. I'm an avid watcher of politics and history on television. I was the guy in school who would be utterly entertained watching crappy vhs tapes on things like the Italian Renaissance and the implications of the Crusades on Muslim society versus the impact of the Mongolian invasions. I'm a computer science major, and an amateur writer and game designer. I love traveling and the idea of living in a foreign land for a while, and I hope to do so at some point.
As far as my personality is concerned, I tend to be fairly sarcastic. I try my best to be positive and nice though, and hold back the critical or negative comments that pop into my head. People often look at me and think I'm contemplating some deep truth, when in reality I'm probably just thinking about how awesome it would be to eat a taco right now.
