Officer Positions

2000-2001	Librarian

Who I Am

I've (mostly) graduated from Cal Poly now, after changing my major near the end of my first (Landscape Architecture to City & Regional Planning), and now employed with the County of San Luis Obispo. I haven't gone to the club in a long time, due to the schedule conflicting with my other weekend plans (KCPR and volunteering elsewhere). I think it was K who got me into MNA at first, though it might have been a mutual interest in anime that got us going.

Me and Anime

I started watching anime back in high school, waking up for the early morning showings of dubbed movies on the Sci Fi channel or renting tapes from local movie rental places. Minna hooked me on more shows and a bit of manga, and I went to a few cons (Fanime once, AX a few times), even cosplaying (because it's grand fun to put on fake eyebrows =) Being librarian was fun, as I got to take the tapes home, where I saw the vast majority of the Future Boy Conan.

My anime watching has rather petered out, but not for a dislike of anime (I still own some random DVDs, and the Bebop movie OST + CD3" -- oh TokyoPop, you used to have such great loot sales). The most recent "anime" I've watched has been Avatar: Last of the Airbenders. Yeah, Americanized anime, but it's fairly well written and kinda fun.

Other Stuff about Me

I was at Cal Poly for about 8 years, and I was active in the Week Of Welcome orientation program at the beginning of each year, eventually getting involved as a Staff In Charge (aka Spending Too Much Time On Campus). Now that I've mostly graduated (still waiting on some grade changes =\ ), I don't come on campus that much, but I still read the MNA mailing list postings.

What Others Say

Paul was librarian for a very brief stint in 2000.  Paul is one the oldest 
people I know who still attends Poly.

Notable achievements:  Being a WoW leader longer than I was a student at Poly.

How do you spot him:  Hell if I know, I rarely see the guy myself, you can 
try asking KCPR, I think he's still a DJ there.

He's still going to Poly.
