About me:
I'm a nerdy guy who likes nerdy things. And by nerdy I mean interesting, complex, and fantastic. I appreciate music, arts, and creativity. I question blind devotion but believe in faith. I believe a person can be passionate about anything and the more unique their passion, the more interesting the person. I love my job. I’m amused by Toki Doki. I enjoy sudoku, designer toys, and building furniture.
This is the best day the world has ever seen.
Tomorrow will be better.
-R. A. Campbell
