About Me

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
I am a high school student, living in a small town outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I have a huge interest in Psychology, and if I had to describe myself in one word, I would say vintage nerd! Which is actually two words, but I love words so much that I can't just choose one!

Remember...

Was there ever a time in the world without computers? I personally, have never owned one, nor do I own the memory of not seeing a monitor on the desk in the corner of our living room.
The first computer I remember was this gaudy white thing that took up three times more space than the current family computer. I remember putting the cd-rom games in; Reader Rabbit, Easy Bake, and Barbie's got a horse. It was also the same computer that distracted my dad just long enough to allow a three year old me to push my then one year old brother's baby walker down the stairs with him in it!
Later, when the out-dated computer was finally retired, it was moved to the basement play room. There, my brother and I would spend hours playing games such as, office, writer, etc.. The loud, clunky, space consuming computer is now residing in a landfill just outside of town.
The plan is to get myself a computer for my own use, but I will never forget the sound of the dial-up tone!
