Chin's Story
Life
After high school, I went to college and was recruited by the Hare Krishnas at the airport while catching a plane to visit my folks. I left the Hare Krishnas in '93 with the Incense Seller of the Year award and a severe case of carpal tunnel from banging on the tamborine. Depressed and couch ridden, I put on 200 lbs and eventually joined a militant obese vegetarian organization before I was kicked out for eating too much cannabis in '95. Fat and high, I decided to go work for a secret goverment agency that exports American diet and culture to lesser developed nations so that they lose their sense of history and self worth. After success at infiltrating and setting up McDonald's and Burger King franchises all over Asia, I made the mistake of expanding into India in '98 where my ego got the better of me. Caught for cow theft while making ground beef in Bombay, I barely escaped with my life. (I was set up by not having a KFC franchise). So I found a fishing boat back to the US in '99 and wound up lying my way into a job at an internet company where I could be accepted for being unattractive and slothful while being amongst techs and engineers addicted to video games and internet porn. Then, wouldn't you know it, they started charging for that shit. Now I'm a tour guide for the OJ Simpson Trial and the Rodney King story.
School
Not sure what a "Life Profile" is but since I'm in India at the moment and bored stupid, I think I'll take a moment to ponder on what it may mean. I think a life profile is supposed to be a synopsis of what my life has been up to this point with useless and egotistical comments and gestures hinting at one's successes (although appearing modest) while also offering some semblence of wisdom through the vast wasteland of time one has lived through up to this point in their lives. I've nothing successful (and I say this without modesty) or somewhat wise to offer any reader or acquaintence. I will however mention that India is definitely an interesting place and that the world seems smaller each time I travel somewhere. My life biography to this point would consist of...Expand for more
a lot of cigarettes, booze, various mind altering substances, too many words wasted in conversations and too much of life wasted in waiting rooms, airports and at work. I don't have an eschatological mindset anymore and find myself reading the same books and writings over and over again rather than trying to study those things which I have not yet read or studied. I think this is what happens when you're over 30, have realized that the solipsistic angle to life isn't very interesting, enjoy food and drink more often than the company, and have recently reconciled things like family, career, relationships and the self, and ultimately see that most of the world is the result of bullshit created by assholes. Politics, business, entertainment...it's mostly bullshit. Just don't get used to the smell.
College
Ugh...out of a desperate need to be in a cold, reclusive and hostile environment, I went to RIT in upstate NY to learn the fine art of drinking cheap/bad beer and smoking cheap/bad weed. I fondly remember the snow there and the sub-zero climate which slowly created in me a passion to adopt masochistic habits. After being caged in the dungeon that was my campus the first year and then moving to off campus housing which resembled Schtahlag 13 from Hogan's Heroes, I got a bit restless. The social scene there was not unlike a birthday party in a nursing home as I was constantly surrounded by women who resembled "The Far Side" cartoons. I dropped out. Went home to MD and did the whole commute from home thing. Took up a very unimportant but interesting major and somehow got into a the graduate program in English (after farting around and eventually finishing the undergrad) to learn how to use all of those SAT words I had studied. The school found their mistake and that wasn't enrolled just taking the classes so I had to apply for real to another school. Went to Oregon because I heard about how good the beer was there and lived in a crystalmeth infested neighborhood/trailer community for 2 years and finished my degree. I'm planning to go back to school as soon as I have my loans paid off.
