So, it’s funny how I’m writing a biography… I blame my girlfriend! It is quite hard for me to tell you my life with out thinking to much. I sometimes don’t understand myself, the way I am, the way I look at things in general but here goes. Oh, and I am not going to get into a lot of detail, so I'll leave all the unnecessary and gross stuff out.
My name is Gabriel, I am 22 yrs old, Half Puerto Rican / Half Honduran. I am currently residing in Lynn, MA with my beautiful and loving girlfriend, BABE! That’s not her real name though, her name is Greishka, to be honest, I wouldn’t be such a good person with out her. She’s a one of a kind of soul mate that you would want to be with for the rest of your life and marry. She’s taken care of me very well and really wants to help me out with my own dwelling problems. We each have our own little likings and what not but we love each other and that’s what counts! I like kicking her butt too. She’s a pain in my butt.
I love art in general and photography, and it's what I'll be doing for the rest of my life if all goes accordingly into plan. I've been into art since the age of four. Got into comics when I was 12 yrs old and a whole new world of inspiration just flowed into my mind. I tried to be as good as my favorite comic book artist, Joe Madureira, creator of "Battle Chasers" and ex-artist of the "Uncanny X-men". However, a few years later he retired which led me to get into other things in life.
At age fourteen, my mother bought me a nice computer. Or should I say, “bought us” a computer (not that it was meant for me, but for the whole family). I basically hogged my new friend 24/7! A whole new life opened in front of me. It was like having sex for the first time! No, no, just over exaggerating. However, my first computer really changed my life a whole lot. I started exploring more into digital art and web design. And at some point during my exploration, I wanted to create digital art and websites on my own. So, I really went into a spree with old and horrible artwork back in the day that I thought was actually cool. I have improved a lot over the years and I’ve still been keeping up with my digital art and web design till this day. It’s been a fun habit and it seems like I’ll never let go of it….. ever.
At Eighteen years of age I joined the Army for Infantry, at Nineteen I was sent to Iraq and at 20 I got back from the hell hole. The experience I have gone through in Iraq is something I rather just keep to myself. However, I would like to say that my training experience was one of a kind. It was hard for me to adapt the army life but now that I look back into it….. It was fun.
Behind the scenes when I am not creating art or websites or even thinking about the army, I grab a controller and start playing the shit out of a video game. I love videogames and right now I'd have to say "Halo 3" is the only game I’ll be playing for a very long time. It's a very competitive game in terms of MLG (Major League Gaming) and one of my goals is to attend and compete a full year of MLG and hopefully have a good stand at the tournaments. Imagine getting paid for competing in videogames? Hell, I’m going to give it a shot with Halo 3. Hopefully at some point in the future, if I keep up on playing everyday, I’ll be a pro.
Now I am just trying to live life with my girlfriend, hopefully get the best of it before my problems are fixed. I would love to attend College and major in a lot of things such as film, photography, game design and 3D animation. It’s a dream and I will try my best to get into all of them. Life is short, I just want to live my life the best possible way and it’s through education and a supporting soul mate.
