ABOUT ME

hmm, never have been very good with this so here is goes:
a current college student who is trying to find the right major (engineering technology i think). I am very interested in how things work and how they are made, especially bicycles (cars are to complicated with the computers now a days) love to bicycle and meet new friends. grew up in the south suburbs of Chicago and love the slow country life as i have lived in northwest corner of Iowa (Sioux Center) for 2.5 years for college.
On a more personal level, i don't smoke or drink alcohol, although I do love a good root beer to quench the thirst. i do like cats and especially dogs.
