Well, unlike Mr. Tadir, I lack the looks to go posting images of myself nowadays, but I'll still give a (re-)introduction of myself, because why the Hell not?
My name is Mike. I'll spare the last name, but if you're curious, my name is basically the same as both a famous comic artist as well as a professional NFL player.
I just turned 30 years old about half a month ago, and currently reside in the state of Ohio. You know, the same Ohio that you're stuck in forever once you move there?

Anyway. At the moment I am currently unemployed, having bounced around jobs -- as well as states and even countries -- since early 2011. I spent about half a year teaching English over in Japan before returning back to the States, followed by about a 8-9 month sabbatical living with my folks in Arizona, taking some random classes to further progress my English teaching certification as well as my pre-existing Bachelor degree, which is in Sport Management. Tried looking for a job there, the economy blew, came back to Ohio (where I had been from 2005 to 2011 pre-Japan).
Decided finally that I was really sick and tired of not finding anything with my chosen degree, and am now gearing up to go back to college to pursue a new career in Childhood Intervention Specialism, also known as Special Education, starting in January. I'm also contemplating enlisting in the military, but I need to shed a few pounds before that would be an available option, sadly.
In any event, I'll just wrap up by saying I've been in to MMOs since I was in my teens, starting with Ultima Online, working my way over to EverQuest, before getting established in Final Fantasy XI ever since its release in North America. Save for little breaks where I tried EQ2, Aion, and WoW (god did I hate WoW), I've always gone back to it. And now here I am, waiting to see if A Realm Reborn turns out to be as good as currently advertised.

A friend to the end to depend on you can.
I walk through the sea, swim through the sands.
To the edges of the earth, to your rescue when you hurt,
Only thing I learnt is I'm not Superman.
