Hullo!  As most of yall know, my name is Matt.  Well, it all started back on Valentine's Day of 1984(at least by estimation)...and then 9 months later...I AM BORN...

I grew up in a town called Van Horn...which is in faaaaaaaaaaaaaar west Texas (between El Paso & Midland.  I lived there all my life.  It was fun growing up there b/c there is nothing to do out there, so you have to get creative with entertainment.

Van Horn is a pretty weird ass town.
Only in Van Horn will you ever have a chance to meet and see John Madden, Tommy Lee Jones, Ran Horn, a VW bug that flies, real Mexicans, real cowboys, beautiful mountains, snow, a movie being filmed, and a space station that will propel people out of Earth.  If you haven't had a chance, you must visit it!
OK, fast forward like 20 years.  So, I'm in college at the moment (UT-Austin).  I'm loving it here, blah blah blah.  I'm in the Texas Union Student Events Center Mexican American Culture Committee.  I know I know, long name, but we kick ass.  I'm the Director of Campus Communications.  The people in this committee are phenomenal.  I've made great memories with them.
OK, other than that, I absolutely enjoy travelling and exploring the city.  I can "people watch" for hours.  I like learning about other cultures and then telling everyone all of these cool facts.  I hope to get a job where I can travel across the world.  Sevilla, Spain will be my home for about a month this summer.

Have you ever watched I Heart Huckabees?  If not, watch it because I feel that it has answered all of life's unanswered questions.

If you like music, you will love me!  I listen to all sorts.  I used to actually be in an Afro-Pop band (a band that plays African pop music).  We played on 6th street my freshman year.

If you want to learn more about me, IM me or something.
