About me:
Greetings and salutations! I am Matt, or Mel, depending on how you know me. To be brief and to the point: I'd like to think of myself as a humble gentleman, but pretty much I'm just a philosopher meandering through life. My focus is political science, though I often take an interdisciplinary approach given the magnitude. Much of it deals with psychological and social analysis but I'll spare you the lecture. I am a graduate from California State Long Beach on the subject though, but for now I'm taking time to get other aspects of my life in order before I move on to a masters program.
Music is my other passion that keeps me going through the day. At the very least I enjoy a little background noise. Other than that I’m into gaming or watching movies and anime on the side, though ultimately they are merely distractions. Besides, reading and working out tend to be better activities promoting personal wellness. Anyway, if you’re still reading this, I don’t really fit into any standard categories, though I might be considered an open-minded maverick; if you read my interests perhaps you’d agree. With that invitation I’ll leave you to your own devices.

Who I'd like to meet:
Currently, perhaps Trent Reznor and Henry Rollins. Realistically? Considerate and decent people...
Nothing personal but purely random invites that lack a proper introduction will be ignored.
