Hi, I'm Rob, and I be 24 years old. Graduated from University 2 years ago with a double degree in Chemical Engineering and Computer Science.
Right now, I'm living in the suburbs of Chicago (though I'll be moving in the city at the end of June), and I'm working as a Petroleum Engineer for a company headquartered in Chicago,
UOP. I love my work, and I love the opportunities my job affords me. Starting early November, I will be travelling to various refineries around the world as a technical advisor. It's gonna kick ass!
let's see... I have a brother 2 years my junior who is working on his Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering. My parents and grandmother live in another Chicago suburb 35 minutes away (both a blessing and a curse).
Sports I love to play are biking, Football (soccer for the uneducated
), martial arts (I have a black belt in
Kuk Sool), and Ultimate Frisbee. I also love watching Football (Real Madrid!) and Aussie Rules (though that's hard to catch here...). Other hobbies are reading, programming, and obviously music. No RPGs for me. I have a guitar, and I have been playing on and off for over 13 years, but I really, really suck because I hate practicing. But I do sing. I sang in many choirs for 10+ years, but I don't have time for that anymore.
Another interest that I have is religion. I'm Jewish, but I'm not very religious. I like learning about Judiasm, Christianity, Islam and the Eastern religions. For some reason I can't explain I could care less about mythology and paganism. I also like learning about general asian culture.
I'm not a loner, but I'm not outgoing. My social life with my not-so-close friends is not quite what I want it to be, but I'm not going into details on that one.
Somehow I got through all of college without ever dating anyone... well, except the first year when I was still dating my girlfriend from my last semester of high-school. We broke up nearly 6 years ago and I'm still single and looking. But I've been able to get myself to stop stressing about it. 6 months ago it was bothering me quite a bit, and I was looking a lot more actively (and failing quite well, thank you), and I wasn't too happy. I'm a lot happier now.
Actually, my life right now kicks ass... except for the being single thing.
I think I beat Oyo now...
