Ok.
My name is Peregrine Nicholas Bartholomew Michael Miles
Everyone calls me Peregrine, except for 3 people who i allow to call me Pippin, and a few who get away with Per.
I was born in Duvall WA. back when it was a small farming community. (its a friggen micropolis now
) but didnt get to stay long as my fathers jobs kept moving him all around western Wa. (he was in construction at the time) so i had a rather interesting childhood, most of which i cant really remember. i do remember my puppy (Gunar) and hitting my brother in the head alot. lol we spent all our time thick as theives or mortal enemys..dont ask.
I spent most my gradeschool years being homeschooled by my mother until my fathers life finally caught up with him and his back went out. the family moved to Aberdeen WA. then (since it was theoretically cheaper) and since dad wasnt working much mom didnt have time to homeshool us. public school yay. (well for one year, then private school yay.) anyhoo, spent the next few years adapting to seeing the bastard kids of the neighbors every day (lol) and getting into alot of fights. fights which i might mention we jenerally won...i mean they had baseball bats! me my bro and sis were building ballista! (yes im prolly the only person here who has shot a ballista in anger)
anyhoo, during this time my mother divorced my father, which affected my siblings badly, but honestly didnt do too much to me, as i was old enough at the time to see why. to her credit, within 3 years she had managed to land a good job at Weyrhauser and drag us above the poverty limit.
granted, we were helped when my brother got killed by a speeding driver. sad, stupid, crappy part is i could have prevented it, but didnt pay attention. my family fell apart, totally. and someone had to make sure people locked the doors and didnt burn the house down and crap, so i just...got over it. fast. ive been to a few shrinks since then, and near as anyone can figure i really did JUST GET OVER IT. im not really repressing it or anything...weird huh?
but ive always been good at controlling my mind and emotions. too good. i can remember one time..maby 2 in which i was 100% happy. and maby that many that i was 100% mad, and so on. i dont feel things. never really have. its just, "ah, this emotion is appropriate for this situation" *shrug*
lets see, that was the first day of HS for me that he died, let me tell you their are few things that will make you instantly popular...and thats one of them
maintaining the popularity wasnt a big priorety to me, but it seems that i did, i kept getting voted into offices (4 years in senate) and got most spirited and spirit crown a couple years and stuff...well...lets just say i cheat, i have NO shame
the stuff i post here (and i will post more i hope once i get my site figured out) is like...well...quiet. im loud, flashy, outwardly nuts in public. I like to think it allows other people to let their hair down without feeling like they are drawing attention to themselves
Lets see, graduated HS, yadda yadda, went into college twice...AA degree, and a Computer degree. during which time i worked at mcdees (manager
) and did some other things like moved out, then back in to my mothers house (she lives 3 blocks from the college) and went through 3 cars and a truck...only blew up one of them! and an internship which taught me that i do NOT want to go into the computer feild..so basically 2.5 years of college the second time through were wasted.
depressing.
right now? i work nights at 7-11 and mornings in my basement on building +1 Armory (yes an actuall buisness, i have the licenes and taxes to prove it lol) into my dream job. I also work on Outclassed, a webcomic i would like to produce if i can ever get my website built (i suck at html lol, im a hardware guy) and nail my story down with my english major of a sister whos supposed to help
lets see, i was almost married once..but decided not to after finding out some things about her past
im a bad man for breaking up with her...but logic>emotion it seems is the norm for me.
Hobbies? heh, too many to list really,
I study people...sociology and history and psychology, but have never actually majored in it (minored in hist though)
I bend steel (im actually pretty good at it now)
I swordfight in 2 different forms (Kendo since i was 7 and broadsword/sheild off an on since 5) and am pretty good with a pole-arm.
Warhammer 40k, paint and play (badly on the play lol)
Collect and draw manga
collect old (100+ years only) books
Paintball like a feind (feild not speed)
play magic the gathering, for god, like 10-11 years now...
collect weapons
and work on everyones computers, even though i hate doing it lol
Golf
and basically apply myself to alot of things which then pass in a months time
i have no girlfreind (after the whole almost getting married thing i havent really felt like trying much)
and spend waaay too much time online lol
eh..thats kinda an overveiw i suppose...any specific questions?
*edit* oh ya, ive also been to meso-south america lol...on the boat trip from hell
