Newbies are the stuff dreams are made of

Post by nath » Fri Feb 29, 2008 11:50 am

Hi Real Life Forumgoers, I'm totally new! My name is Nathan, but you can call me nath. I've been reading RL for a good while now (not since the beginning, but I remember I started reading at a time when I was obsessed with Evangelion. During a random search I happened upon the Eva/Mech story arc and have been hooked since). I read a lot of webcomics now, but RL was the one that started it all, so for that I thank it. (or him...... them..... whatever)

As for me, I'm 23 and I live in the beautiful city of Brisbane, Australia. I'm a programmer for work and a gamer when I'm not working (and sometimes when I am), I read a lot and I write as much as I can (I'm trying to write a novel at the moment).

Well that's about all there is at the moment. Hopefully over the coming months you'll all get to know me better, and I you. Well, that's the plan anyway, and a cunning plan it is. Talk to you all soon!

Nath? Like math? Or Nath as in the first syllable of Nathan? The former is the instinctual assumption while the latter only after knowing your actual name.

Also, what's a Texan doing in Australia?

Nath as in the first syllable of Nathan would be the correct pronunciation. It never really occurred to me that there would be confusion, but there you are.

And Texan? What makes you think I'm Texan? I've never even been to the USA, though I'm planning a trip later in the year.

Fun fact: Everyone on RLF either lives in Texas or will move to Texas at some undisclosed point in time.

I'll only end up moving to Texas if Vito "The Chin" Romano ever decides to collect on his debts.
Yo Mav, I'm real happy for you and Imma let you finish but Hirschoff had the best sig trends of all time.

Well, I was in Texas for 8 months going to Air Force Basic Training, and Technical school... does that count?

Tina? Noooooooooooooooo. Or yeeeeeeeah. Whatever floats your boat.

Well I don't see myself moving to Texas..... well, ever. That said, I'm sure it's a wondrous place, but still.

I'm in the planning with my book at the moment. It's a fantasy with a bit of sci fi chucked in. The basis of the story is actually a dream I had a while ago, hehe. Once I've written a quasi-decent amount of it I might chuck some up here on the forums, I need to as much feedback as I can get.
