Hey y'all,
I'm a sophomore Political Science major from here in Lubbock. I do a lot of little hobbies, because I like to have something to with my hands. My most current hobby is wood carving; I’ve only done a few so far, but I’m especially proud of the little wooden duck sitting on my computer desk. When I’m not studying or hanging out with friends I like to go mountain biking on some of the challenging trails on the east side of town. If any of you like to ride let me know and I can show you my favorite spots around town. I believe in making the most of every situation, and I will often go out of my way to turn even the most mundane tasks into an adventure. Some of the things I do may seem random or unnecessary, like a midnight game of Croquet or driving a few miles out of the way to get a more scenic view, but I do those things because they’re usually the most fun. I’m looking forward to a great semester, go team Connor and Friends!

  1. Wood carving?! That's awesome! I've carved spoons before......that's about it. A duck........that's the real deal. I'm impressed. Where do you get the wood? Do you buy it or find it on your own?

  6. Thats pretty cool that you like to go mountain biking. I am more of a road bike kind of guy. My dad got me into it and its a really nice sport. I've competed in some races around the area, but I stop since I started going to college.
