Ye first post...
By Crobar in Neurognosis
October 10, 2007

I have a blog elsewhere on this here interweb, but I figured joining here would most likely let more people read my ramblings - and oh there are ramblings.  Not to mention Victoria was my home for a number of years.

So who the hell am I?  Well, my name's Cory (Crobar was a nickname bestowed upon me a few years ago and I thought it sounded cool) and I'm currently living in San Marcos.  I'm a graduate student at Texas State University in Research Health Psychology and Epidemiology and plan to obtain my Ph.D. from the University of Texas-Austin in Behavioral Neuroscience.

I'm a recent addition to San Marcos - moved here in July.  I spent the previous year in Dallas attending UTD and studying Applied Cognition and Neuroscience with a specialization in Neuropathology.  However, for many reasons I transferred schools and now I'm here.  Dallas was pretty great and my friends Joey and Kelli kept me sane - you guys are the greatest.

Before that I lived in Victoria for a few years and graduated from UHV with my BS in Psychology.  I also worked as a lab assistant in the UHV computer labs and wrote for the UHV Flame a few times.

So what does this Cory guy do in his very small amount of free time?  Well, I'm a member of a few online messageboards here and there, check my MySpace like a man obsessed, and read the latest journal articles in scientific journals (yeah, I know, I'm a complete and utter nerd).  I do have some talent though, I play the guitar when I can and I feel I'm pretty decent at it.  I'm a lover of music - listening and playing.  I'm primarily classified as a metalhead I suppose and am always on the look out for new, quality metal (which is usually not from this country nor bands anyone here has even heard of - but they rock nonetheless).

I have many wonderful friends and I love them all very much.  Many are still in Victoria and I wish I could see them more often than I get to.

My love-life is a complete and utter tragedy of Shakespearian proportions - I'm nearly convinced that the only girls who come into my life are those who seek to make my life as close to any concept of Hell as possible.  That's not to say there aren't wonderful girls out there - there are, I just haven't caught the eye of any of them...but the evil, subversive, heartless, cruel ones?  Those are the ones I seem to attract.  But enough about my wasteland of a love life.

I'll probably post some stuff I have from my other place of residence on the web here just to get things rolling.  I hope everyone continues to drop by, thanks for reading.
