•First Name: Jonathan
•Profession? Student?: Student on a break. Ideally I would like to work for a major theme park and design/theme rides and lands.
•Age: 22
•Favorite Hobby: I enjoy the outdoors, mostly hiking. I am trying to learn mountaineering.
•Favorite part of Halo: I'm a sucker for a good story, and the lore really adds to that. I also enjoy the books.
•Favorite Halo: Reach, followed closely by ODST. ODST was my introduction to the series and I like how the campaign is a much more personal story. Reach is top for me because of the story and because you are Noble 6. You mold them to your liking instead of having a set character.
•Favorite Video Game: The original Battlefront 2. That game is my childhood.
•Other Interests: Football, hockey, military history, Star Wars, the outdoors, and anime.
•Favorite Food: Right now it's yogurt. Mix up some vanilla yogurt, all natural peanut butter, a banana, and sprinkle in some chocolate protein crisps. Delicious.
•Favorite Band: Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefers
•Favorite Movie(s): Top 3. Avatar, Revenge of the Sith, and The Dark Knight.
•What do you hope to learn here?: Different techniques for construction of costumes. I'm also interested in improving my stitching and learning about electronics.
•Have you built/made a costume before?: I have assembled and painted a Jango Fett helmet.
•Do you belong to any other costume communities? If so, which one(s)?: Not currently. I would like to eventually finish my Jango Fett costume and join the 501st, however I'm more interested/focused on my plans to build a Noble 6 costume at the moment.
 
In an attempt to overcome the crippling social anxiety I shall do this at the very least. ^^"
