=Where I live=

I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota. A place of much diversity and culture, which has greatly influenced my growth. I can honestly say that I am a much better person having moved here from my hometown which was not only much smaller but also much less diverse. =What I'm studying=

I am a student in the Technical and Professional Writing class at the University of Minnesota in the Twin Cities. I am a theater major. I love theater and movies. I also love to study history. I am most fascinated by military history. I enjoy studying not so much the death and violence but the reasons why humans feel the need to harm and/or kill one another. Why they justify committed such atrocious acts. I would have to say that my favorite time period would be medieval. It just fascinates me for some reason.

=Hobbies=

I've lived in Minnesota all my life. I'm not a huge fan of the cold, but the winter sports are great. I most intrigued by dog sledding. My favorite dog breed are huskies. Absolutely marvelous animals. I would very much like to race a team of huskies sometimes. It would be absolutely grand. I also enjoy rock climbing, or rather indoor rock climbing. I can honestly say I haven't done any climbing outside yet, though I would very much like to sometime. I also enjoy martial arts, any and all suit me just fine, though the newest I have learned is Tai Chi, it not only keeps me in shape but it is also very enjoyable and easy on my body. A new hobby that I have come to enjoy is stage combat, which is great fun. I had recently spoken to an author by the name of John Clements, who is the author of several books on fighting with blades, and I am hoping to train under him at some point, no pun intended. If your interested in learning more about stage combat a great place to start would be the SAFD (Society of American Fight Directors). Here is the website you should totally check them out. http://www.safd.org/

=Traveling=

I must say, I also enjoy traveling. Thus far the countries/provinces thst I have been to are Russia, Amsterdam, Greece, Macedonia, and Kosovo. My favorite of them was Russia. It is a beautiful country with beautiful people. My Lady and I are seriously thinking about going to China in the very near future, so I am very much looking forward to that. We are also planning a trip to Europe where we will hopefully see some of their most historic sites including but not limited to the castles and cathedrals. It is a trip I am most eagerly anticipating. Mr. nice (talk) 21:17, 2 February 2010 (UTC) Mr. nice (talk) 20:25, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
