Explanations

Wow my first post... I'm kind of nervous. Well... not really I just thought that'd make it more dramatic. Ah! Of course! Where ARE my manners... my name is Kevin Caulfield and I'm a sophomore at Punahou. So why tknogk? tknogk was a name I came up with playing a game (I think it was lumines for the PSP), where I only had 6 characters to fill in a sn (screen name), in the highly unlikely case that I somehow made it onto the high scores list. If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm really weird and I like gadgets, in particular, mp3 players, cell phones, and computers. You could probably ask me anything about mp3 players and I'd be able to answer it... yeah... I'm THAT weird... So I figured my sn should be a reflection of who I am, so tknogk= technology geek.

The other thing I really love to do is read manga/ watch anime. Right now, I'm really into Death Note (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_note- but be careful! There's tons of spoilers in that!!!), and what the series is about is pretty much self explanatory: there's a notebook called a Death Note which can be used to kill other people by whatever means you desire. It may sound very draconian, but the owner used it to kill criminals, which he thought was justice. But what is justice? L, the best detective in the world, wants to catch Light, the main character, in the name of justice. Ah... well I went a little overboard explaining that, but it's such a great series that I want everyone to get into it as I am right now. I actually somewhat surprisingly buy it (unlike most, if not all, the audio and video content I have on my computer), whereas everyone else reads it at the bookstore or downloads it.

Wow where did that link come from? I CERTAINLY didn't put it there.....*looks around nervously*. The only reason why I'm using this now is because the next issue comes out in March... and it's just THAT good haha. Also, I've always been a huge fan of One Piece. I actually have 291 episodes of it downloaded o_0... and probably about another 300 episodes of other series. I... am just getting weirder by the moment aren't I...

Hmm... what else...My favorite subject is chemistry, because it's fun to make things catch on fire. Today I actually got to make flaming snowballs, which is make from 1 part Saturated Calcium Acetate and 9 parts denatured alcohol. It's really fun to play around with, but obviously dangerous if your hands aren't wet. I'll try taking a picture of that if I do it again :)

Well... I'm getting really bored about talking about myself actually. I'll post more things later I guess. If anyone wants to talk, my sn for aim is: kc10splayer
I don't really have a story behind that one other than I play tennis, but hey... I was in 8th grade when I made it, so I don't have to have a logical rationale for it :)
