Hello
everyone!!
My name is Lucas
McDowell and as of spring 2010 I am a freshman in Materials engineering. In
case you are wondering, no that is not my son in the picture, and yes I still
am under 20. Most people think I am older because I am prematurely balding.
It’s a curse but I have to accept it and live with it.

About Me:
I am 18 as of now. I have 15 brothers
and sisters, (yes they are all biological.) My hometown is a little place
called woodbine. Don’t blink, or you will probably miss it. I tend to think too
much. I have a problem with talking too much. I love my friends and family more
than anything. I guess everybody says that to make themselves sound better so,
obviously, I’m not very original.

Activities:
I
like to eat and sleep, but that is what
everybody says. I love to swim its probably my most favorite thing to do in the
entire world. Contrary to popular belief I do not run for fun, I
like the feeling when I’m done.
I like to read write a draw. I like to sing and dance. I don’t watch TV and I run
a LOT.
Favorite Music:
My
favorite song depends on my mood, but my favorite band is Green Day.
Favorite Movies:
It changes. I tend to love some movies
one minute and get bored with them the next... one of my favorite movies though
is October sky. It makes me feel good. I like action packed movies and every
once in a while a chic flick
Favorite Books:
I love the book Looking for Alaska by
john Greene. I hate it when people say the greatest books in the world are
either the Harry Potter series or Twilight series when they have read nothing
else. In fact I hate it when people say something is the greatest in general
but they haven’t experienced everything else. Don’t get me wrong. They are all
great books, but there are better in my opinion.
Favorite Quotations:
I have many
"Shoot for the moon if you miss it
you will still be heading for a star the trip may be longer but the journey
makes all the difference."
"When in doubt....smile."
"It’s not about the size of the
dog in the fight; it’s about the size of the fight in the dog"
"Don’t measure the mountain until
you have reached the highest summit."
"Cigarettes are like boogers the
more you have the harder it is to breath."
"I have a bad feeling and it’s not
good."
"Holy fat crackers batman!"
"Let the rain drive down the snow
pile deep and the wind buffet my coat I care not for I walk a road worth
walking."
"Be Strong Now, Things Will Get
Better -- It Might Be Stormy Now, But It Can't Rain Forever..."
There are a lot more, but it would take a long time to type them all.
