It all started on a cold, stormy Monday night in late March, 1980.  No one at the time knew it, but this night would be one to go down in history! The day I was born. Ok, ok... so it wasn't some earth shattering event and I didn't get any gifts of gold or had some drummer boy beating his drums for me. But one of my mom's friends gave me a stuffed moose!My name is Jeff, for those of you who don't know me in real life, and I live in the quaint little town of Williamston, Michigan. I didn't always live here, though. I was born in Holt, Michigan and lived there until I was 3 years old when I moved to Naperville, Illinois, a suberb of Chicago. Naperville was cool, I had a best friend named Kurt who I chilled with a lot. But my parents didn't seem to like it a whole lot, so they decided to uproot me again and move me off to Yorkville, a smaller town west of Naperville. I didn't like Yorkville as much, namely because I was always such a shy young dude and had trouble making friends. However, that didn't last too long as my dad got a new job here in Michigan. So we moved back to the Great Lakes State when I was entering the 6th grade. And I've been here ever since!  I recently graduated from Williamston High School and now I'm attending Michigan State University. Currently, I'm studying computer science in MSU's undergraduate program (considering I'm a lowly freshman). I love it here at MSU, though my dorm room isn't the greatest (I have three roommates, ugh). The classes I'm taking aren't really that interesting though, the only one having to do with computer science is my math class, the rest are classes my advisor recommended. But don't think that handicaps my computer skills, I still learn a lot from just messing around and reading a lot of books. I also hope to receive my cognate (minor) in telecommunications. I love web design and I hope to stay in that as my future occupation.So you wanna know about my system? Well, before I left for college, I purchased a Pentium II, 300 MHz computer. 8 gig HD, 96 megs of Sync DRAM, 32x cd-rom, internal zip drive, 8 meg video card, and a 15" sony flat screen trinitron monitor.  So far it's served me nicely, though I'm hoping to build myself a new puter over the summer. I've also invested in some other puter stuff, such as a scanner: the HP 5100Cxi flatbed scanner, and a burner: the HP 7200e external CD-Writer Plus, and a digital camera: the Kodak DC210 plus. All have been an invaluable asset to my web designing. So far I've gained valuable experience designing pages, having worked for numerous companies designing them, including Michigan State University. If you'd like to take a look at my credentials, I have my resume on this page.Well, that's about all for now, hope I didn't bore you to death. And please feel free to browse the rest of my site. Enjoy! :-) Ok, here's some more info about me, if you care: Full Name: Jeffrey Matthew Pierce DOB: March 31st, 1980 Location:Michigan State University  Hobbies: Messing with my webpage, making money working on other people's webpages, listening to music, washing my truck, spending time with friends, spending time with my Girlfriend, chatting online (while working on my page, of course), skiing (water and snow), biking, college life, and worrying about how I'm going to pay for my college life.

Fav Quotes: "As the final sunset roles behind the earth, and the clock is finally dead, I'll look at you, you'll look at me and we'll cry a lot, but this will be what we said." "trust no one." "...and he piled upon the whale's white hump, a sum of all his rage and furry. If his chest had been a cannon he would have shot his heart upon it." "The beauty of this vision alone, just like yesterday's sunset, has been perverted by the sentimental and mistaken for love." |
