I spend all my spare time on pc's - is that bad?

Absolutely not, it is quite good, considering you aren't out there getting into trouble, though you can get in trouble using your pc :shifty:

Personally, I spend most of my day on the PC now that it's summer time. Even if it isn't summer time, I still do :p

Goddamn yes I am a computer geek, what else would you call someone who sports dual moniters, computer certifications, has dabbled in a few programming languages, has made his own Visual Style, Has sold MMORPG items for $$ on Ebay (Diablo 2 1.10 items when the patch was just released, hahah), has had to use Recovery Console to repair his boot partition because he was replacing system files.....yeah, I'm a ****ing computer geek.

But...

I love the outdoors. If I had my way, we'd live like Native americans, no joke. that's how I think is the right way to live.

I skateboard nearly everyday. Usually with large groups of friends, like 8 or so. Sometimes we'll skate all day, there have been days where I've been out skating for over 12 hours at once. I love skateboarding and I'm really starting to progress....360 flips comin around, I can nose manual forever, got heelflips back, can do 180 boneless fingervarials like nothing now.....I love it.

Also into weightlifting. I go to the gym usually once or twice a week....gonna start going more often though. I can lift more than most anyone on the football team though, I'm incredibly strong just naturally, so I started out at pretty high weights when I began doing some lifting. I'm pretty built now, defined chest, 6-pack, big arms etc.

If you saw me, you wouldn't ever think I'm someone that knows what a megabyte is. I tend to be categorized as the skateboarding stoner type that will get no where in life, when in reality I'll be making more out of highschool than a lot of my classmates will out of college.

I really do enjoy computers and I plan on having a career related to them, but physical activity and being outdoors is so much more vital to me than any rounds of CS or Unreal Tournament will ever be. I love physical activity, I'm incredibly atheltic...I've played and exceeded in Karate (2nd degree blackbelt, studied in Kempo, Kwamukan and a few other styles), Basketball (Consistantly making all-star teams and the like), Baseball (Wasn't all that great, hit hard but missed a lot, fielded well, bu tonly played 3 years), football (Only played a few years, kicked some serious ass though as Linebacker, playing kids half my size).

My general day, assuming I have no school or no work, will be sleep in till say, 1 pm, wake up, eat and shower and ****, **** around on the computer for 30 minutes to an hour, go skate, come home around 7, shower, hang out with friends (Sometimes doing geeky **** like 4 playe rHalo and having CS lan parties, other times parties, going to get togethers and ****)), then come home, smoke some magical plant, chill to some cool music, eat, talk to my << racial epithet >>z online then play somes toner CS with my friend, 1 v 1.

Well, sorry about this post getting to be long and ****, and sorry if I sounded full of myself or anything, I'm really not like that, I just acknowledge certain qualities about myself and I'm not ashamed to discuss them.

I've been looking trough my WINDOWS ( HAHAHA GET IT?!?! ) and i saw something my mom calls "Outside"

and i saw this bright shining object in the sky! i think it was a UFO but my mom called it "The sun" :omg:

Amazing! you all should check it out, now i'll go see what this "School" hype is all about!

Looks like you and me need to go on a crusade to find what this 'outside' is:pp
