HELLO
I'M MONTY
YAY
My real name is Justin and I live in shitty down under Australia, but I was born in shitty Namibia to two people that are now separated but still live close together, being a 5 minute walk to either person's house. I'm 18, finishing highschool in around a month and then moving onto a TAFE (read: lower than university but higher than college) course.
I will be studying
Interactive Digital Media and another course in
Digital and Interactive Games Design. Once I get both courses done in TAFE, I will be doing a course for an Advanced Diploma at AIE (Academy of Interactive Entertainment) in
Professional Game Development, focusing in Art & Animation.
In highschool, I do Visual Arts as a class, and my primary chosen subject for the class was digital photography. To finish your HSC(High School Certificate), you must submit an artwork or collection of artworks to complete the class's section of your HSC.
Here is a link to my artworks that I have submitted for my HSC, and it is currently in the marking stage.
Now it's time to talk about Argonath. I have been on Argonath RPG since April 2009, first arriving on SA:MP and Argonath being my 3rd-4th RP server that I tried out. I was partially illiterate, knowing only German and Afrikaans, and Argonath being an English server, it has helped me learn English and given me a lot of knowledge of different languages in cultures outside of Australia, primarily from European countries. Argonath has helped me in learning new coding languages as well, including LUA, HTML, C++ and a tiny of Java. I have learnt how to use a lot of Adobe products, like Photoshop, Flash and After Effects.
In 2011, I went through a deep depressive period for unknown reasons, and being 16, I was still developing an adult mind that had to control itself rather than have others control it for me like in the past. in May, shortly after my birthday, I attempted suicide by hanging myself from my ceiling fan in my bedroom. But due to my inability to create knots in string or rope, I passed out from the bloodloss to my head and then the rope detached from the ceiling shortly afterwards. I attempted suicide again in 2012 in February by throwing myself off my bedroom balcony and onto the concrete driveway, passing out again by still surviving. Neither of my parents and only a small collection of my friends know about my suicide attempts, and I have been through family and school counselling to talk about it.
I was born in Namibia, a country which used to be part of South Africa but gained independence a few years before my birth. My father is Australian, but my mother is of Namibian birth. My mother's mother and father are from Germany, originating from Saxony. My father's mother is of Danish descent and has a long family-line from Denmark, with her Maiden name being Jacobson(pronounced yuck-ob-son). My father's father's family-line originates from Prussia and England, a lot of the Prussian side of the family fought in the 1800's Franco-Prussian war and dying.
My great grandfather is named Hercules Frederich Burgess, and my cousin's newborn has been named after him in the last month. I plan to change my name to Justin Frederich Jacobsen to celebrate my grandmother's Danish ancestry and my grandfather Hercules and his father Frederich.
I plan to travel back to Namibia to see old childhood friends and some of my mother's family and her adopted sister's family. My half-sister lives in Italy and travels Europe, and I will be going to Italy to travel around with her for a bit, then go to University after all that is done.
I love to play videogames, like League of Legends or Europa Universalis. My favourite videogame is Crusader Kings 2 by Paradox Interactive, and I have a love for ancient and feudalistic history.
I'm a socialist, and believe in freedom of speech. I try to stay fair and in arguments hear out each person's argument and decide for myself what I believe is right in the argument. Every person should be given an equal right to talk and do things as much as the next person. If someone needs helping out, I'll be happy to assist them in their situation.
I'm not very good in school with my grades, I find it hard to pay attention and do things that I don't like. I'm not good at tying my shoelaces and am extremely shy when doing new things or talking to people in real life. I've only had one girlfriend in my lifetime and she moved away to Japan with her family. I go to parties rarely and I don't like talking to people in one on one conversations because I'm an awkward person.
Thanks for reading.
