"The SangpoD"

Hi!  Welcome to my new ‘personal’ website!  This is intended to be a compilation of some of my e-xistance, including my videos, bookmarks, etc.  As well as a place to rant about projects, life, linux, gaming or whatever I have a mind to.

I’ve built several websites before, but never have they really been a personal site for me.  They’ve always been devoted to specific topics, such as my old video gaming clan ( LSF ), my webcomic ( Hilarity-Ensues ), work websites and so on.  Now, for the first time since I first delved into centrally aligning an animated gif in 9th grade, during the epic days of hamster dance, I’m happy to present my new home on the web.

Oh, yes, but who am I?

Introductions are always a challenge for me, that usually involve me saying “Ummm errr” before saying my name..  This is because, my name is technically “Sherab Sangpo Dorje”, as far as all of my teachers are concerned, but growing up I always went by “Sangpo Dorje”.  Lately I’m generally known as “Po”.

My mom is Finnish and my dad’s from Tibet.  I’ve considered quite a few places home while growing up.  I lived in Woodstock, NY – Sedona, AZ – Ribera, NM – Santa Fe, NM – Los Alamos, NM – Crystal Falls, MI – and most recently, New York City.

Now I’m going to school, working toward a BA in 3D Computer Animation.  It’s been quite a trip, but I’m almost there!

Of course, I’ve never been one who goes to school with much ambition.. I’m not really in it for the money, I’m in it to learn interesting stuff..  If I get a job related to my education, then great, if not..oh well at least I know things!

Well that’s about it!

Oh, just in case anyone happens to have a history in gaming and because it’s always great to run into old long lost friends, these are most of my online aliases from over the years: alias in quotes, clan in parentheses

• Baldur’s Gate:  “Elwyn99” ( LSF: Lords of the Shadow Flame )
• Ultima Online: “Elwyn”, “Raistlin”, “Morlith”, “GrandNooblar” ( HE: Hilarity-Ensues )
• Dark Age of Camelot: “Morlith”,  “Drakx”, “Elwyn”, “Insaint Fosho”, “Drakx Kabaam”, etc. ( AW )
• Quake 3, 4, ET: RtCW, CS/CS:S, etc. “Nooblar”, “PwnedNooblar”, “GrandNooblar” ( HE )

Thanks for stopping by, see you around on the interweb, or maybe even *gasp* IRL 🙂
