My Hobbies

As any common nerd, I like to do some things in which I really see no purpose but I still like them. These are the following:

  1. Computer Gaming, its majesty. As I see no point in wasting money for game consoles, I use my PC to get into some virtual reality. The types of games I honor is basically 3D action, adventure, quest and some strategy, though I generally dislike it. My favorite games are: All the DOOM series and all the Heretic/Hexen series. I also used to like multiplayer games (deathmatch); go to my Hexen II Page for further detail.

My Interests

Career related junk.

  1. Programming. Existing knowledge includes: C/C++, Java, ASM, Oracle PL/SQL, Korn Shell. API's I am (reasonably) familiar with: Win32, Berkeley/Winsock, pcap, OpenGL, STL, AWT/Swing (very rusty at this point).
  2. Web Design. In fact, you're reading my first HTML project (with a lot of modifications) I was to create as my final in the "Introduction to Multimedia Technology" class.
  3. System Administration and Troubleshooting. I've been dealing with Windows systems for quite a while now, but substantial *NIX expertise is still to be acquired.
  4. Computational Methods and Statistical Analysis. Application of general purpose numerical/statistical methods (as MCMC and simulated annealing) to existing problems in various fields. Software I am more or less familiar with: S-Plus, JMP, I-Miner.
