Hello

I know this happened two days ago, but with school and everything I've been busy. However, I wasn't too busy to watch this video.



I found this very moving. Seriously, it reminded me a lot of the conversation I had with my dad when I came out. Well, except that I'm not a soldier, and I was able to tell my dad in person. And yes, I'm gay. I'm sure you gathered that from the title. But more than that, I'm also an engineering student. And this video inspired me to start talking about that. Being gay in engineering, I feel very alone. I know no other gay engineers. Period. And I know of no gay engineers to have as role models either. So I decided to create this blog (since I'm not that great with videos) to talk about my experiences with life and let any other gay engineers/scientists know that they are not alone.

I'm gay;
I'm geeky;
I'm an engineer.

P.S. I'm also Mexican-American, but I felt that would have made the title of this blog too long.
P.S.S. And by Mexican-American, I mean I was born in the U.S., but my ancestry is Mexican.
