First Post - Let me introduce myself!

Hey everyone, and by everyone I mean the one or two people actually reading this. As the title implies, this blog is going to be chronicling my search for employment suited to my hopes and dreams along my own random nerdery along the way and I'll start by trying to make sure I get a post in every day...as for the blogger, here's a brief breakdown of who I am.

This is me!

Handsome fellow, I know, but I recently graduated from the University of Memphis where I worked as in IT, hence the headset. With graduation came the loss of that job however since it was a student job, so I looked around for a bit till a local staffing agency offered me another position in IT that I can do from home! Don't applaud just yet though, working from home is a bit draining and I'm a people person, so while I'm doing this, I'm looking for a job in my dream field, video games!

I know what you're thinking, and I am thinking it too, it might be a bit of a stretch, but I've put in job applications across the USA and a few outside of it showcasing my degree and a bit of my work on Github. (Seriously, if you wanna check it out, it's all here). I'm also teaching myself how to use Unity as well as a few more languages like C#, Javascript, and Lua. The job I have now is a night shift, and I don't mean the closing shift, I mean I don't get off till 6 AM most nights, so my days are normally spent asleep! Aside from that though, my off time is spent learning the aforementioned skills, hanging with my friends, playing both digital and analog games (Yes, I have a Pathfinder/D&D character), and listening to music. That's about all you're going to get out of me for the formal stuff, so let's move to the fun part.

I've referred to myself in the past as a renaissance gamer because I really can't think of a genre or platform that I don't like. Of course I have my favorites, but gaming is gaming because it's fun, not because of the boxes we put them in. As of late, I've been playing a lot of Overwatch (PS4), and WoW...I'm a bit of a Blizzard fan. I do enjoy other games though so if you have a Steam, feel free to drop a friend request to lost_angel25. I do also stream occasionally at twitch.tv/ninja_tank25. Any other games or platforms you can think of, feel free to leave a request and I am sure I have an account on there. 

First post, that wasn't so bad right? I'm not really sure what direction I'm going to take this in. Maybe I'll blog about the adventures of Ca'el Lightsworn, my LG dwarf cleric in Pathfinder...or just about what I did that day...it's really interesting to try to manage a blog because you can literally go whatever direction you want! Looking forward to hearing from you guys and keeping this going as long as I can! Now I need a sign off...how about game on! That works!

Game on!
