Task 1 - Teh Mah

Hi, I'm Jason, but you can call me Jay or Maddog. I'm a 20 year old college student living in Brookings, South Dakota (South Dakota State University) and I'm currently looking for a job, and taking summer classes. I'm a Spanish major and I hope to get a job as an interpreter one day.

I'm into music. I enjoy hard rock and heavy metal most of all, particularly AC/DC, Metallica, Nazareth, Slayer, Pantera, Disturbed, Downcore and Alice In Chains. I like alternative/grunge music, such as Nirvana, Soundgarden, RHCP, and the Stone Temple Pilots. Finally, I'm partial to classic rock, particularly Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles, Foreigner, the Who, Led Zeppelin, the Moody Blues, and Simon and Garfunkel. They're in no way a complete list of bands I like, but it's just meant to give you an idea.

I'm a casual bassist, and although I really don't play much nowadays, I might get back into it one day.

I'm into James Bond. I've seen every single Bond film (I guess that's not much of an accomplishment, hehe) and I'd love to get into the Bond EU, but it's hard to find in my area so it'll be a while.

As for my future, I plan on moving to Colorado and getting my master's degree in Spanish. I'm not sure if I want to get a Ph.D and teach (I have no patience, hehe) but I'd love to interpret for a large company based out of Denver. I just love the mountains... and Colorado is such a beautiful state... except for the eastern 1/4th where it's just flat and brown.

I'm 5'10 (1.78 m for you non-Americans), black hair and brown eyes.

I apologize if I look angry... it's probably the best picture I have, unfortunately.

 

Dude, you really, really look pissed.

I'm scared

Hehe.

And no reference to Alabama Man? I'm dissapointed.

I found it interesting that "Teh Mah" is actually Sumarian for "He who likes his potatoes mashed".

Very interesting.

 

Hello Jason!

 

Hello, James, John, and Kas.

And I changed the sig. You'd better enjoy it.

 

Kickarse! Thank you!

Hey Jason!

So you're a Spanish major, eh? You should start a Spanish thread, so we can have some fun speaking it. It's been years for me, but I can still read it and understand it when it's spoken. Writing it or speaking it are a problem, which is why a Spanish speaking thread would be fun.

I've always wanted to learn Spanish. I probably will in college. I hear it's really easy after you know Fren- Freedom, which I do.

 

'm partial to classic rock, particularly Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles [...]

Hey, I like you already, Jason!



Have fun here!

 

Yeah, I like him too! Such good taste in music and someone else who wants to be an interpretor finally. But I would like to be fluent in "Freedom," as sj said she already was

 

Freedom is a sissy language. That's why I didn't want to speak it!

Tais-toi! Je peux te tuer (avec beacoup de choses, comme les oiseux, les pamplemousse... tu vois?)

 

Pon tu francés en la oreja, por favor.

 

Pienso que hablando en ingles es mas tonto que tu madre en zapatos grandes.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I want to post here sooooooo bad!

Styx is another band I like a lot... I just gotta post there!

 

I love Styx. I have my friend Erin to thank for that.

 

Did someone say something about my mother?

Styx is awesome. My orchestra is doing a version of Come Sail Away. How cool is that?

 

Come Sail Away is dandy, but Renegade's my favorite song by far and away.
