Le Intro

My name is Alexander Holmes, but you can just call me Alex. I come from Flower Mound, Texas, a relatively small suburb of the DFW area where there really isn't all that much to do. As far as interests go, I like to consider my self as a jack of all trades, I try to pick up a little bit of everything and am willing to give anything a shot. I like to go snowboarding, and recently returned from a trip to Santa Fe, and try to get out a few times each season. I picked up longboarding when I got on campus here at Trinity, and have been trying to make the best of that. I do the stereotypical male college student thing, video games, exercising, studying, etc. I'm also excited to (hopefully) be helping start up the Quidditch team here at Trinity, but we'll see how that goes.

Unfortunately as far as a major goes I have no idea what I want to do. I'm following the business path right now, but the way I see it I still have plenty of time to figure out what exactly I want to do. Part of me wants to start my own business doing something enjoyable, like a graphic tee/clothing company. God knows I don't need more though (I have more clothes and shoes than my closet can hold). But a company like Threadless is really inspiring to me, and I think if I could do something along those lines I would be a very happy man.

I am pretty well versed when it comes to technology and computers, and actually forgot to take the test to be exempt from this course. I built my own computer, and know very (note: VERY) basic programming in Java and HTML, but can hold my ground on most software, including Photoshop. I've also been known to pursue... juvenile flash animations; they're nothing special. But if you ever need help with anything or have questions you can get in touch with me at:
aholmes2@trinity.edu (it rhymes!)

Thanks for following,

Alex
