Welcome

I just want to start this blog with an introduction to myself, what this blog is about, and some other "administrative" items that comes with the territory.  I am Legoboy, a college student watching his first year come to a miraculous close at university.  I admit I like college a lot, but don't think of this as another "I'm gonna bitch at everything" type blog.  Instead, I want to review many of my interests.  These include videogames, movies, books, anything related to science fiction (seeing a trend?), and some social commentary.  And I can see what else you may be thinking: Am I that guy in the dorm that stays in his room and plays videogames all day?  I can assure you I am not.  I am not the hardcore gamer who just plays games, uploads videos and his commentary to Youtube.  I just play games and have fun with my friends.    I do like a variety of things, so posts may jump from interest to interest.  I only mean to reflect and maybe educate those who will read this.  So bear with me.

Now on to other things.  My name is strange for a college student, don't you think?  I have been stuck with it since I got my Xbox a few years ago.  In need of a gamertag, I summed up my own interests, and threw a bunch of things together.  Eventually I landed on Legoboy.  My friends, being themselves, questioned my choice.  And henceforth the name stuck.  It has been shortened a few times to Lego in the heat of games such as Call of Duty and Battlefield franchises, but now is not the time for that discussion.  So the name Legoboy stuck.

When I went to college, I went with no one I knew from my area or class.  I was called by my first name again.  Unfortunately that soon changed as well.  My room is adjacent to another room with an Andrew, and his room was adjacent to another Andrew.  I also know another three or four (can't remember now...) Andrews across campus.  I honestly never have known so many Andrews before in my life.  Now I just introduce myself and request to people that I go by my last name.

So there you have it.  A little commentary, a little history, and I hope you become intrigued to read some more.  Comments are welcome, but do not be ignorant or rude.

Until next time.
