Stumbled upon this site on a banner ad on this role-playing board I RP on called PHS 259.

I'm currenty 27 years old. Still in school majoring in acting, art, and writing. Minoring in international studies, mythology, and religion. I am of Chinese and Vietnamese descent. My parents immigrated from Saigon at the end of Vietnam War.

My biological grandparents were revolutionaries in the First Indochina War. My biological grandfather died in the Tet Offensive. My family had lived through the entire war.

I've lived somewhat of a pretty interesting life so far. For about two years, I had worked as a substitute teacher for the Polk County School Board. Half of me doesn't miss it. Other half of me does because of the challenge it brought. Whenever I leave jobs, the one thing I usually miss are the challenges it presented to me.

I've also worked for the John Kerry campaign in '04. Met a bunch of very interesting people.

I'm currently on MyCreativeCommunity under the name TFactor. I'm also on StoryLink also using the name of TFactor.

In my freetime, I like to draw, write, surf the net, lift weights, listen to music, practice martial arts, play video games, play Magic the Gathering, go clubbing, and dining out.

I have trained in styles such as Tae Kwon Do, Wado-Ryu Karate, Tai Chi Chuan, Western Kickboxing, Competition Muay Thai, Lethwei, Boxing, Technical Wrestling, Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Combat Grappling, Judo, Aikido, Vale Tudo, Japanese Shootfighting, Nin-Jitsu, Tai-Jitsu, Special Forces, Army Combatives and Capoeira. My favorite styles to practice would be Muay Thai, Lethwei, and Tae Kwon Do at the moment.

I am a massive Japanese anime fan. Today, I tend to enjoy watching Japanese anime than what is on TV nowadays. However, I do make major exceptions for shows such as Heroes, Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, Prison Break, Doll House, Law and Order, Robot Chicken, and Family.

Currently, I write for multiple websites such as Digital Journal, Associated Content, Ground Report, and Now Public. The CJ-scene has kept me busy for quite some time.

Right now, I'm a single guy. But, I'm very single, and very happy. I so enjoy my freedom. When I am not writing articles, I am writing screenplays left and right.

My passion is ...

My inspiration ...

Arts & Humanities > Comic Books & Graphic Novels Character analysis: Rin Ogata of Rideback, by Tetsuro Kasahara

1 of 1

Rin Ogata is the reluctant heroine in the manga series by Tetsuro Kasahara called "Rideback." So far, Rin seems to be quite the interesting driving force behind the Rideback story. She seems to be a simple girl that ends up being dragged into a dark conspiracy. In this respect, Rin finds herself having to go up against a large government organization. So far, the story behind Rideback could possibly be criticizing the United States' response to what happened during September 11, 2001. So far, it is revealed that Rin was born in Japan on September 11, 2001. This is the same day that the Twi...
