I was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, and raised in the nearby Jacksonville. I was adopted by my current parents, shortly after my birth. My father is a plumber and HVAC specialist, and my mother works as a senior analyst.]]> 2022-08-26 21:24:46 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273116088 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273131005 I've always loved science fiction and action/adventure films, though arguably my favorite genre has got to be the kaiju genre. My favorite film, both from the kaiju genre and in general, is the 1954 film Gojira by Ishiro Honda. It's a "lightning-in-a-bottle" type film, and is still today one of the best, if not the best, film of the monster and kaiju genres.]]> 2022-08-26 22:03:30 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273131005 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273967732 One of my first memories involving video games was playing Minecraft: Pocket Edition on an Ipad. I first started properly playing games when I got an Xbox 360(not pictured). My cousin owned an Original Xbox(pictured), and I have come to own as well. I'm a bit of a collector of video games and consoles.]]> 2022-08-28 22:02:44 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273967732 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273987481 Both of my parents listen to a wide variety of music, causing me to have a range of music tastes as well. This includes everything from jazz to military marches, rock and country to rap and hardbass, plus much more. I do, however, favor genres such as rock, old-school country(Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins, etc), and Swing.]]> 2022-08-28 23:03:11 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2273987481 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274173750 I've always loved old vehicles. From old cars, to old aircraft and ships, I've always been fascinated by them. My dream car is a Chevy Master Deluxe, such as the one pictured.]]> 2022-08-29 02:42:25 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274173750 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274174515 Being someone who was born in the Southern U.S, it may come to no surprise to some that southern food is my favorite kind of food. Mexican food does come a close second, though.]]> 2022-08-29 02:43:05 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274174515 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274185406 As far as subjects go, History has got to be in the top 5, at the least. There are many different stories from History that are quite interesting the farther down you go.]]> 2022-08-29 02:53:45 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274185406 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274716780 In the bio, I explained that I'm an only child with my 2 parents.

So, it may only be natural that a career such as Mechanical Engineering may be included in the list of careers I would want to go into.]]> 2022-08-29 13:48:20 UTC https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2274766370 leroyakridge https://padlet.com/leroyakridge/y0f8oteykutpy91k/wish/2275599382 One of my favorite hobbies is collecting.
