tell me a little about yourselves...

Post by js3901 » Nov Sun 14, 2004 12:48 am

Ok, I'm interested in knowing about people. I'm looking for things like age/sex/location/profession/hobbies/favorite attraction at your favorite park/etc... I like to get a feel for the people that I'm responding to. That way, we can have some interesting topics here in the forums.

I guess I'll start it off, as is customary...

I'm a 24/m from the Buffalo, NY area. I work in Customer Service fielding phone calls for Verizon Wireless. I'm also a Certified Pastry Chef in the American Culinary Federation. I got a little tired of the 12-14 hour days spent entirely on my feet, so I got a desk job (which I'm usually standing more times than not. :lol: ). When not working, I'm usually at home watching movies (I love the CGI animation like Shrek or the Pixar stuff), reading, playing video games or listening to subsonicradio. I've only ever been to WDW parks, and my favorite attraction would have to be either the Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom or Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at MGM.

That's really it about me. Now, how 'bout you?

And, Sub, if you feel this is a bit inappropriate, let me know, I'll take it down or something...

I'll jump in!

Hi, I'm Megan (*all together* "hullo megan"), I'm female, 18 years old, and hail from sunny southern California (North end of San Bernardino, if you must know). I currently work at Limited Too selling clothes for girls ages 6 through about 14. Retail sucks.

I'd eventually like to get into hotel/casino management and am currently persuing a degree in it (but that's a whole 'nother can of worms).

I've only been to DCA/DL but would ultimately love to spend about two weeks at WDW and surrounding area. I do not currently own an annual pass, but I'm asking santa for one this christmas :wink:

If and when I get free time it's usually spent on aim/irc or there's the occasional "Girls night out" with my best friend and her twin 8 year old daughters, where we scamper down to downtown disney and eat and shop and just have a generally grand 'ol time together.

OKay well I'm 22/M live in SoCal Riverside area to be exact. Work for the city of Riverside I have 5 kids and 1 wife :lol: Love theme parks worked for Knotts Berry Farm and just loved it. I spend most of my time playing my Xbox but thats what Guys do. And believe me I know retail and unless you like customers (most are stupid) than retail isn't the way to go. Well if you have question than I'd say ask away. Also I think we should have pictures of everyone just so we have a face to go with the profile.

Hi. This is Rick. I am 27, I live in Los Angeles. I am single and I have no kids. I am a freelance cameraman. I have my own Super 16mm and DV cameras. I am considering becoming a teacher. Maybe elementary school or middle school. Filmmaking will always be my hobby I guess. I grew up on the East coast and went to Disneyworld a lot. My favorite attraction is the now extinct Horizons. I am interested in learning computer animation, perhaps combining it with film.

I'm aldo. I'm 25.

I'm a geek, socially phobic (or is that socially inept?), annoyingly perceptive, and I have a healthy fascination with baklava.

I work at a law firm in downtown LA. I want to teach english in japan and envision myself as a teacher in a few years.

My favorite ride at DL is the people mover, favorite restaurant is Hungry Bear. Pat Benatar, good grammar, and google answers are some other things I like.

Tell everyone a bit about yourself, if you haven't already. :D

Meh, why not? Not like I have anything better to do.

My name is Michael. I'm a 20 year old single male who's just finished his freshman year at university (and no, I'm not stupid, just incredibly lazy). My hometown is Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada, but I go to school at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, and while I'm away at school I live in Coquitlam. (Now you know why I don't bother with a city in my profile.) I'm studying History right now, and considering going to law school when I graduate.

I don't currently have a job, but I plan on getting one over the summer. For the past year I've just been living off my scholarships and student loan.

My favourite park is Disneyland, since I've never been to any of the others. My favourite ride there is Pirates, though Star Tours is a close second.

My hobbies are basically anything over which a guy can get obsessive and geeky. Disney, video games, movies, sports, politics, whatever. And if I'm not interested in it yet, I probably can be if I throw myself into it.

Finally, an interesting note: I can eat as much as I want and not put on weight. Just a couple of hours ago I ate a giant plate full of salad, followed by a pot of Kraft Dinner, followed by a burger and fries, and I've had to hold myself back from eating the buster bar in the freezer with my name on it. And that was just dinner. All this, and I'm 6'1" and still a fairly steady 130 pounds.

Girls hate it when they find that out about me. :D

I'll tell you as much as I'm willing to tell. The rest is up to your imagination.

I was born in New York, spent 20-30 years growing up in The Bronx and upstate New York. I like cartoons from The 60's and 70's as well as music from that period.

I like anime and comic books and of course I webcast as a hobby on the net at a radio station in Tampa.

And of course I enjoy the WDW parks in Orlando. :D
