My Page
Back in around, um, 2005-early 2006 I was an avid Wikipedia editor. Then, in late 2006 (August) I discovered an online MMORPG called Runescape and also discovered IRC(specifically an IRC network called SwiftIRC), and now I RARELY edit Wikipedia since 2006. I spend most/all of my time on RS(Runescape) and on IRC.

<!-- == Biography ==

Early Childhood (1990-1995)
Born on February 21, 1990 at Silver Cross Hospital in Joliet, Illinois. I was born in the morning at roughly around 8:00-ish or 9:00-ish. Lived in a townhouse in Bolingbrook.

In 1993 (when I was three), we got a puppy! He was black and small (of course...he was a puppy), and we named him "Shadow". He was a mixed-breed...as for what breed(s); I am not sure. 1994 saw the start of Preschool. I went to Little Lambs Preschool in Bolingbrook, IL. In 1995, I went to Kindergarten at Independence Elementary School.

Grade School (1996-2001)
I also went there for 1st grade, until Christmas of 1996. In June of 1995, my little brother was born. Around Thanksgiving of 1996, we moved into our newly built 3-floor (basement, 1st (main) floor, 2nd floor -- 4-floor house if you include the attic) house in Plainfield. After the Winter Break of the 96-97 schoolyear, I transferred schools.

I finished my 1st grade schoolyear at Wesmere Elementary School in Plainfield School District 202. From 1997 until (early) 2001, I went to Lakewood Falls Elementary (it was not open during 96-97 when I went to 1st grade) for 2nd - 5th grade.

Middle School (cont.)
I finished Sixth Grade and went to 7th grade for the 02-03 schoolyear. During that schoolyear, I received an A on my 7th grade Science Fair project ("Does Monocular vision and Binocular vision affect (video) Gameplay"). Also, I was part of the stagecrew for the school play. ("Annie Jr.") I created a website for the schoolplay: http://www.geocities.com/it_p2003/2002.html.

In eight grade, I remained part of the stagecrew for the school play - it was "Into the Woods". It was sad to finish 8th grade and leave Middle School, as it meant that I was leaving the best Science teacher ever (my science teacher for 7th & 8th grade) (name withheld for privacy/security reasons). I also received an 'A' on my 8th grade Science Fair project ("Does the type of surface affect the bounce of a Ping-Pong ball").

9th grade
I started 9th grade at Plainfield Central High School for the 2004-2005 school year. I had the best teacher for Math (name being withheld for privacy/security reasons). She was great. I used a pen during Math, that I got from Walt Disney World from the summer..it was wooden, and carved and colored to look like a giraffe. Well...She saw a wooden pen at a store, and it made her think of me -- because I used/had a wooden pen -- and she bought it for me (it was a frog on a 'log' -the log was the outside part of where the ink container for the pen was at. The frog was at the top. The rest of the year was great. I passed my FINAL EXAMS.

During the 2005 Summer Vacation, we took a family trip to the Grand Canyon. We flew from Chicago Midway to Las Vegas (via Southwest Airlines). The day after we arrived at Vegas was spent driving to Flagstaff, Arizona (a 200-something mile journey), in a Ford Taurus that was rented via Hertz). We spent the night in Flagstaff and the next day we visited the nearby Lowell Observatory. After spending time at the Observatory, we drove Northward to visit Sunset Crater National Park (extinct volcano). There was lots of ash on the ground and solid chunks of lava. -->
