Post 1: Dipping my toes in the water

“The name’s Bond, James Bond”- as memorable and simple as this quote may seem, it is in fact, the quintessential standard for why I'm studying communication.  My dream, since childhood, has always been to become a cop, detective, or a “spy”; in other words, one of those bad-ass-good-guys with a firearm and a voice as tools.  No, I’m not power hungry or violently mannered.  In fact, I've always had the eye for protecting the peace, which is why post-graduation I will be in the Navy.  Currently, I am double majoring in Psychology and Sociology while shooting for a minor in Communication. Now here's how I see it, Sociology will give me the ability to judge my suspects fairly, Psychology will help me understand and outsmart my suspects wittily, and Communication will allow me to interrogate and talk to my suspects purposefully.  Perhaps not as smooth and prowess as the Englishmen Daniel Craig himself, but I will shoot for the sky(fall).



Anyways, people like to call me Byron Rombaoa, and thus I have stuck with it since birth.  I’m 21 years young and I live in Corvallis, Oregon.  Currently, I go to school at Oregon State University, which is a great university that adheres to education and football.  Yes, I’m all about football but basketball is truly the sport that I can’t ever get enough of.  Being born and raised in the great city of Portland, I've been a Trail Blazer fan all of my life; and so far it’s been an up and down relationship between the Blazers and I.  More about myself, I thoroughly enjoy watching movies, specifically when it’s free or during class (especially when it's during class) I'm Filipino, and this is my first official blog to hit the world wide web! I'm coming for you world!

In conclusion, if you want to be James Bond study communication
