We all have weird habits, quirks, and facts about ourselves. These attributes differentiate us from one another. Throughout our lives we are constantly keeping these quirks and habits under wraps, only letting those crazy enough to get close to us to see us for who we really are. We hide these traits when we meet new people, go on job interviews, or go on dates. We even hide these traits during seemingly insignificant social interactions like buying coffee or ordering a pizza.
I believe that we as people should not hide these traits. In fact, I feel that they should be embraced. I have decided to explore this topic by exposing some of my own habits, quirks, and facts. I want to give people out there a little bit of insight into what make me tick. I also hope learn something about myself in the process.

Back in the Blog game and the meaning of Pluto's uprising
After a long hiatus, I have decided to get back into this "blog" game. I used to keep a fairly up to date blog on myspace, however, my recent departure from the popular social networking site has made that very difficult. After months and months of a literary void in my life, I am glad to finally find a medium where I can "unleash the beast".
With that said, I would like to intoduce myself. My name is Brandon and I am from Tampa, Florida. I currently go to the University of South Florida and I am majoing in Accounting. I am a self-proclaimed nerd. I am very much into movies, video games, and comic books, which will be the primary focus of most of my posts. I am currently in a pretty serious relationship with the wonderful Sheena Romero. We have been together for about 4 years now and if things continue to go the way they are, we may grow old together. At this point in my life, I am trying to focus primarily on school. I do have a part time job but that is the extent of my employment. In a few years, I hope to achieve the seemingly unrealistic goal of graduating and travel to England, Ireland and Japan.
Now that I have bored you with my little introduction, I'd like to go into what you can expect from my blog and give you a brief explanation of the title.
As I stated above, you can expect a large amount of post dedicated to the subjects of video games and movies. Most of the game posts will be of games that I have played, intresting anecdotes associated with games, and a little bit of commentary on issues in games. The movie post will strictly be reviews or thoughts on recent movies I have seen. I will also include personal updates from time to time.
I wouldn't feel right if I didn't explain the title. The term Pluto's uprising is a refrence to infamous Disney canine. Pluto has never really been my favorite Disney character, and come to think of it I have never been a huge Disney fan to begin with, however, I have always identified with his plight. He is a flagship character but is treated like a second class citizen. He is made to sleep outside and eat off the floor under the guise that he is an animal, a mere household pet. However, Goofy is also a dog, but he is able to hangout with the Disney's darling child, Mickey, and star in his own feature length movie. This is where the injustice lies. I know this isn't that serious of a subject but I feel for the pup. So, in otherwords, my title is a bit of an homage to the character.
Well, I think I'm going to wrap this post up. Expect more to come in the future.
