    My name is Franz. 16 years of age & Bi(?), but only out to 3 friends. I'm going to attend my sophomore year of high school once school begins. I'm into gaming. Ps3 or PC. I like working with computers. I enjoy learning new things. I also like to draw. But not great at it but I draw anyway. I have a quiet personality to a stranger in person. But when I'm talking online, it's like the walls go down & I feel comfortable.

    I really just stumbled on this site & thought it was perfect. I joined a couple days ago & I'm just learning how things work here. I'm excited & afraid to be a part of it. I'm glad I found this site; it made me feel less alone... :slight_smile: & this is my first forum/blog site & I hope to make good friends.

    Welcome :smilewave

    I agree with the internet being good for having those 'walls down' - it's like a place where you can be yourself. And I don't think there's any reason to be afraid, everyone is very friendly and non-judgemental (*hug*)

    Hi Franz and welcome! Even if I'm new too :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
    We have lots in common, I draw, play videogames and am very quiet just like you are, any barriers disappear online.
