Some of you may remember Austin from a few months ago. I've been keeping him active (mainly OOC) to keep Ren-s what's going on with him. His name is Austin Panchali, he's eighteen and he's a recent grad from Tegesta. He's had a pretty tough life with his Bible thumping father who's a pastor. Austin has mixed thoughts on religion because of it. He currently lives with sjones and her family. She's like a sister to him... he used to work at Barnes & Nobles but he quit a couple of weeks ago. Reason for that? Read below. He loves Britney Spears, Girls Aloud, and, most importantly, Hannah Montana! He's big on the spoof movies, no matter who retarded they are (I'm talking about you Disaster and Superhero Moive!) and How I Met Your Mother.
Back in October, after he turned eighteen, he signed up for the Peace Corps, which normally accepts people with a couple of years of college credits under their belt but there are a few straight out of high school people who are accepted. He didn't think he would get in because of his age, thinking that NYU was his main school. He got denied from it back in late February, early March and decided just to take time off from school. That is... until the end of April with he got an email stating he was perfect for Peace Crops. Mauritania was the place picked for him. So that's where he was supposed to be going to, well, today. Things have changed. Recently, something about the Muslim government deciding not to let anymore volunteers in the country, even with visas. So they have to wait until sometime next month to see how the people in Mauritania vote (yes! I did my research! Gold star!) - thus Austin being home for most of the summer. He has nothing to do, no job, no nothing. And he's going to keep it that way. For now and hope for the best that he can leave come August, which is why he's back in the community.
sjones has been his bff for years, mustebait is, well, I'm not sure where they stand at the moment. It's a good stance, I know that. She spices up his life? matthw is his cousin and then there's his ex tahli, which I think they're still awkward about. I'd love to form new ones with both old and new members. He's actually pretty friendly even if he does bite. Though not hard because a) he's weak and b) he hates the sight of blood. So lines while I think up a re-intro for him, please?
