Introductions

Greetings, and salutations!

Since this is the very first post, I thought I'd provide an introduction to myself.

First off, the important facts:

I'm currently 24 years old (in 2004) and was born in Canada. I was born to American parents, so got my American citizenship when I was 21. I was born in Saskatchewan (north of North Dakota and Montana) but I grew up in a few places. My dad wasn't in the military or RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police), neither was my mother. We moved because of job opportunities (first to go to graduate school, then to go to somewhere to use that graduate degree).

Needless to say, I grew up in Regina, SK, then in Whitehorse, Yukon (by Alaska). I returned to Regina for University in Technical Theatre, with a short diversion to Hartford, CT for an internship at a theatre. While going to school, I worked full-time for the final three years of the degree, but I'm sure I'll mention more about that later. There were many strange happenings at University and my job, but not the wild, drunken parties that most Americans are probably used to.

So I'm out of school now. I just finished my classwork in the summer, and I knew it was time to move on... so I started looking for internships, apprenticeships, jobs, etc. I found one, and now I have landed in Syracuse, NY. I'll explain my title in another entry, but for now this should give you an idea of my background and what kinds of mysteries are there.

One more thing for this post, to give you an idea of what some of my interests are and what you might read in here, I'll tell you that almost anything fascinates me and I'll write down my thoughts on whatever comes to mind. Anything goes for me, but I'll probably end up writing a lot about life in general for humans and theatre or the arts. I have a strong interest in philosophy and ideas, so I hope you'll find something of interest amongst my pages.

Welcome to my world.
