An Interview with David

Name:   David

Age:  15

Where do you go to school?   Homeschooled

What is on the shirt you are wearing right now?   Well, if we look at this as tomorrow, and I am wearing a different shirt….it varies.

What is on your current shirt?  Well, that question will make it dated.

So you’d rather not describe what is on your shirt?  Yeah…unless I was going to wear this shirt every time we looked at this interview.

Pets?   2 Dogs, 3 mice and 1 fish.  A very uninteresting fish. Oh yeah, and a hamster.

Siblings?  Wait, do cousins count too?  No?  Then 2 brothers.

Favorite type of exercise:  Um.  Uuuuum.  Playing the DS or ipad.

Any physical exercise you enjoy?  I kinda enjoy swimming.

Favorite person to hang out with:  My brother, Alex.

Favorite TV show: Adventure Time or Sponge Bob.  Those are my two favorite shows.  I can’t really decide which is my favorite overall.

Watch or play sports?   No.

Favorite thing to do:  Play on DSI or ipad.

Doing what?  Drawing and watching videos or something.

If you could go anywhere right now, where would it be?  My room.

Do you like wearing odd socks?  Uh…only if they are comfy.

Favorite song/band:   Most video game music tracks.

Anyone in particular?   No.

Favorite super hero:  Mario.

He is a super hero?   Well, he has got super abilities.  That technically counts.

What makes you laugh?  Clever jokes.

Pet peeves:  My youngest brother, Max, when he is being incredibly annoying.  And the internet when it is not working.

What do you know a ton about?  Video games.  Animation on the DSI.

Favorite candy:  Reece’s Cups, Hershey’s and most cherry flavored things…including red Starbursts.

Favorite movie:  I don’t really have a favorite movie but one of my favorite movie trilogies is the Toy Story trilogy.  Another movie I like is  the Sponge Bob Square Pants Movie.

Do you still go trick or treating?  Well, yes.  But I don’t really like to dress up in costumes that demean or humiliate me physically or morally.  I just like hanging out with my friends and collecting candy.

What was your best costume?  A white ninja.

What you’re not good at:  Not very good at video games. I know a lot about them I just don’t play them much.  At all.

What do you want to be when you grow up?   A guy who makes decent video games.

What’s on your mind RIGHT NOW?   Nothing.

Phobias?  I’m not fond of spiders because they’re ugly.  I’m not fond of an open ocean because how deep and vast it is.  And that some ridiculously massive thing seems like it is going to pop out of nowhere.

Extinct creature you would bring back:  How about an extinct THING you would bring back?  A high quality era video games instead of most of the crap we have now.

Study any foreign languages?  No. I kinda study sign language but I don’t really care that much to remember it.

One of your wish list items:  A lot of Marvel action figures that I don’t already have.

What are you skilled at?  Drawing, I guess.

Favorite zoo animal: (blank stare).  Not really any.

Favorite quote:  “I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee”  Spoken by a White Run Guard in Skyrim.

Three of your everyday essentials:

1. My DS

2. My ipad

3. A drawing tablet

Three things you like about yourself:

1. I know a lot about video games even though I have no idea how to play them.

2. I draw better than most people I know.

3. I’m good building Legos.

I know I am biased but David, you rock! I especially love the green guy with the sunglasses. He is totally awesome! (I use a lot of exclamation marks don't I?) But everything on your blog is so fantastic!!! I have really enjoyed reading everything on your blog this morning especially instead of working like I am supposed to be doing. I look forward to reading more later.

David, I loved your answers dude. Very analytical of you, if I do say so myself. I enjoyed reading your blog. Post some more when you get a chance.

P.S. Your drawings are awesome...You need to make a video game that uses cartoon characters as players. That would be so cool :)

[David]

Uncle Patrick,
That is what I want to do. I want to design video games and have Alex make them.
