Albert: aka dragonmerc, Hawkman, Cyrax, Omega and Alberto Quintanilla


Basic irl information

This information is changed to current as of 12 Oct, 1998

I am a student currently going to Tulsa Community College but this is now my last semester so as of next semester....

I am trying to transfer to Rodgers University Center At Tulsa (which is a joint venture by OU, OSU, and Langston also) to get a degree in Business Administration so I could be an accountant. This place would soon change though b/c of a very confusing law that's just passed and the name would become OU/OSU center at Tulsa or something like that. NSU, the school I was considering, won't be a part of it anymore and is now gone. I love games, especially Doom, Warcraft, and Maxis's Sim-titles. Also on top of those I love Battletech.

My fascination with Asian culture began years ago with my first ex-girlfriend. I started to study the ways and the religions of that area and am very much interested in Zen Buddhism, Samourai, the Code of Bushido, and Taoism. This led me to be fascinated with everything that is connected with this including...

feudalism

I got interested in feudalism because the arc of the fictional Battletech universe was basically a futuristic type feudalism. Then when taking Humanities I one semester I had to write a paper and I chose feudalism. I had to write it on the Western type though but learned that the samorai were part of the Eastern type of feudalism. Later I might be able to place my paper for those interested on my website but for those curious right away... don't hold your breath at the moment, please.

Klingons

Although I would mention being a Star Trek fan first, the arc of this section proved otherwise. Klingons love to fight and are a complex culture that is centered around the concept of honor, state, and empire. The general watcher, however, may not realize that this culture has a element of the samorai in it and the honor concept is taken from the Japanese and Chinese. Also from the list of my favorite games, the Klingons are obviously my fave choice.

everything else

I chose to say this because I think I had more connected that I'm fascinated in but I'm writing this in the morning w/ a minor headache so bear with me. If I remeber anything else, I can put it here.

Music

I love all kinds of music and in order to not make this any longer than it is, I will make a page of links to my fave music websites soon.

games

Anyone FINALLY want to know all of the games I like would need to go back to...
dragonmerc's Home Page

link to Battletech section

Anyone want to know in more detail what I like about Battletech and the "history"? There will be another section placed later that will say these things.
