My name is Derek. You can call me D for short. Nemesis is my online persona. Co-Founder/Moderator for Core2| Gaming. I'm obsessed with computers, video games, and technology. I'm also obsessed with Japanese culture and history, which means I am an otaku. On side of that, I'm planning a trip to Tokyo in the future. I hold sentimental things close to my heart, which means I love the silliest and most simple things in life. My family is the most important thing to me, which means I'm closer to them than anything else in this world. I'm also a caffeine addict, and surprisingly my body has grown an immunity to sugar. I collect hourglasses and katanas, along with swords and daggers. I have a very abstract mind, and I know for a fact that I am a unique person. I don't stand for stupidity. I like to talk about significant and interesting things in life. I could care less about how drunk you were at the party last week or how you scored big in some girl's pants. I don't have time for things like that. I'd rather talk about politics or art. I enjoy the positive things in life, because I have dealt with too many of the negatives. I live in a world of gigabytes and kilobytes, microchips and gigahertz. I'm a nerd at heart, and I'm not afraid to admit that. It just shows that I can be smarter than you and baffle you with my wits and reasoning. Like I said before, this is just in a nutshell, so to wrap things up I just want to say I'm a very open minded person, kinda' like an open book. You can write your stories in my heart and enlighten my mind with wonders that I do not know of. You teach me and I will teach you, simple as that. I'm a very relaxed person, so don't be afraid to talk to me. I'll always welcome someone new with open arms.
