Biography: I was born not unlike most of you to a mother, in a hospital. The head nurse looked at me, said "leave this one alone." She could tell right away that I was bad to the bone. When I was five I got mad at my brother and threw a softball at his throat (I didn't miss). I've always loved movies... when I was about eleven I watched a lot of martial arts movies, which got me into Taekwondo, which eventually led to other arts and competition, and I became very interested in fighting arts and combat sports. After some family trouble during my freshman year in highschool I became a pretty bad influence, I skipped class a lot and hung around bad crowds, picking fights and scoffing at authority. I got a lot of help from a counselor though and she helped me get back on track (what's funny is she eventually got transferred and I never had a chance to thank her). I busted ass to graduate highschool after 2 years of jerking off and then took a semester off to get my bearings, during which time I mainly watched a lot of late night TV and ate innumerable Doritos. I was also still really into movies and filmmaking and had some experience, so I started college under the assumption that I would major in filmmaking and become a director, but after taking some classes and seeing how the business works I became a little disenchanted and now I have no idea what I want to do with my life. Basically I'm a directionless punk kid in search of a sense of belonging with unlimited potential but no ambition. Not the most flattering bio but that's me in a nutshell.

Trivia: I'm straight-edge. I've never smoked, drunk, snorted, or injected anything, and even though I'm pretty lazy and act like I don't care, health is pretty important to me, and I work out a lot.

Biography:
I was born in a town near Philadelphia, and I lived with my mom and dad until I was five years old. It was around this time that my parents divorced, and my younger brother and I left to go live with our mom in a town house in a different area. With the exception of our financial situation, life was good, so long as we could still play video games and watch Saturday Morning cartoons and Power Rangers.

In third grade, I started playing my first instrument, an alto saxophone. It was also around this time that my mom started dating a man named Marty, who was working at the same company as her. He started living with us and, although my brother and I didn't get along with him at first, he eventually became a good father figure. Marty later quit his job and became one of the higher-ups at a software company, which brought in so much money that we were able to buy the house that we have been living in for the past ten or so years.

In middle school, I developed a fascination with anime, and started hanging around with geekier crowds. Around then was also when I had my most significant life-changing experience. I was going through my Linkin Park phase when Marty asked me one Tuesday night in December if I wanted to go with him to Delaware to pick up some expensive appliance that I can't remember right now. I said that I would, since I thought I could pick up Linkin Park's Meteora while we were there. When we got in the car, he asked me if I minded if he played a CD, and I told him I didn't. What I didn't expect was that what would come out of the speakers would be the most beautiful sound I had ever heard, at the time. I listened for a while, and then asked Marty what it was, and he said it was called "Black Sabbath". We listened to it the whole way to and from the Best Buy in Delaware, and it was just so wonderful. When we got back home, I put the new Linkin Park album that I had gotten into my boombox, and realized that I had been listening to the wrong kind of music my whole life up until that point. After that fateful night, I had become one of the most dedicated and hardcore Rock 'n Roll fans anyone has ever seen.

After my grandma noticed the kind of music that I was now listening to, she told me about my great grandpa (my grandpa's dad), who played in a classical guitar trio that was regularly played on the radio where he lived. She thought that I would make a good guitarist, so she bought me my first guitar. Since then, I've made a serious commitment to the instrument, and have developed a pretty unique style. I currently own 4 really nice guitars, with another one on the way.

During my junior year of high school, I overheard two of my best friends talking about something called "Super Sentai", and asked them to fill me in on it. They had me sit down and watch GoGo Sentai Boukenger and Kamen Rider Kabuto with them. That is why I am here, at HJU, today.

After reading some of these "hobbies", Isn't there a difference between "hobbies" & interests?? There's a lot of things that I would call "interests" but wouldn't list them under "hobbies".
