My History With HTML

I've always wanted to learn how to code in HTML. When I was in middle school I had a Yahoo geocities page, but I really didn't know anything about HTML. I'm excited to be able to write code, even if it's very simple.


A little bit about me

I grew up in Westchester, NY. I am fascinated by math and science, andI am currently studying Mechanical Engineering. Last semeter I took MEAM 101 (Intro to Mechanical Design) and learned how to use SolidWorks, a design program. I designed this image, which is one of the internal parts to an electric eggbeater. In my spare time I write for the Pennsylvania Punchbowl, and I am part of the International Affairs Association (IAA), which plans Model United Nations conferences, among many other events. I enjoy running, playing Ultimate Frisbee, snowboarding, reading, and playing the guitar.


Music

I love music. It provides a background for my life. I can always find a song to match my mood. It also creates so many interesting conversations. That being said, here are some of my favorite bands:

- The Beatles
A foundation of modern music. Definitley one of the most versatile and interesting bands of all time.
- Bruce Springsteen
Truly a working-class hero. His gruff voice and amazing lyrics are timeless.
- The Decemberists
Their constantly changing sound and story-book lyrics ensure that I continue to buy their music.
- The Black Keys
Whenever I feel like listening to soul-filled blues, the Black Keys are my first choice.
- Arcade Fire
Each album has a different, deep theme. Even after listening to the albums dozens of times, I cannot figure out some of the songs.
- The Strokes
Energetic and lively music that always puts me in a good mood.
- Vampire Weekend
Influenced by Afro-pop (modern African music), they have some of the most unique sounds I've ever heard.
- Blind Pilot
A quiet, folk band that I can listen to when I need soothing background music.
