I'm interested in maybe going to film school after high school.

Last night I went to bed at 10 PM, intending to get back up again at midnight to visit the GOF, but instead slept until 4 AM, looked at my alarm clock, and fell asleep again until 8 AM, when I was woken up by a woodpecker tapping on the side of the house. :blink:

^Wow! Hehe, I don't have woodpeckers where I live. ^^ I'm sure that was a bit annoying though.

Ever since I met one of my best friends I kept using "^^".

Yes, it was.

Fortunately, I love woodpeckers, and provided they don't do any long-term damage to our house, I don't mind it too much.

I've seen at least four different species of woodpeckers where I live: downy, hairy, pileated, and northern flicker. (It might actually be five; I think I saw a sapsucker once, too. :unsure:)

I like woodpeckers. They're cute, and they really do not get on my nerves

. I used to live next door to this guy who would rev his engine several times just about every mornin' (around 6 AM) to get his car started

:. The woodpeckers were music to my ears compared to that

I've always especially liked the crested woodpeckers, like the pileated woodpecker, and the (probably extinct

) ivory-billed woodpecker. Maybe it's because they vaguely resemble feathered versions of Pteranodon, which has always been one of my favorite pterosaurs.

I've found the college I am going to. Reed College, in Oregon.

I've never been a big fan of birds... but I do like parrots for their intelligence. I don't ever plan on owning one, though.

We had a woodpecker for a few years who always tried pecking into one of our roof gutter pipes...

They can be pretty messy, especially if their cages are not cleaned at least every other day

.

I adopted my African Grey parrot Howard from a relative who adopted him as a baby. He was bein' neglected, and my relative decided she did not want him anymore, so I adopted him. I never thought I'd like a parrot so much, but I've grown very fond of him

. He will be four years old on Veteran's Day

I like apple pie. Yes, not a profound statement.

I know a lot about home improvement and how to make these repairs. I also have a pretty good amount of knowledge in automobile repair.

I'm pretty sure I must be part wingtail, because I recently took a liking to fish!

I am skilled enough in metalworking to make a hammer, as long as I am given a lathe and some other cutting tools. I am also pretty good with a hacksaw and a milling machine.
