Sydney Gonzales, Artist/Editorial Board/The BEAT Editor

Just your typical nerd, but not just any nerd! A senior nerd! I’m about to blow this pop-stand like toast coming out of a toaster! ...I hate my analogies, ANYWAY, let’s write this seriously. 

So, I’ll start off with my interests. 

...I’m really into art, I’ve been drawing since fourth grade. I actually plan on going to college to improve it more; I’ve had my own art style for a couple of years--though it’s subject to change. I have a group of original characters I made, which I’m writing a novel about. I’m still new to the writing scene, but yanno... Newspaper and Yearbook helps a lot with that. 

...I’d call myself a lowkey weeb. I have several anime figures...I have an acrylic standee of Tanjiro Kamado from Demon Slayer, a Tanjiro figure, a Zenitsu figure, an SAO: Alternative Llenn figure, a FFXV Prompto Argentum figure, and a MHA Shigaraki figure. I also own several shirts and two cosplays (hopefully I’ll have more later)! I have a Kokichi Ouma cosplay from Danganronpa V3 and Llenn. Some animes I’ve seen/am watching at the time of writing this is... Attack on Titan, Sword Art Online: Alternative (GGO), Haikyuu!!, Bungo (or Bungou) Stray Dogs, Danganronpa, Demon Slayer, Hetalia, and Balance Unlimited (about to start)! The only normal TV I watch is probably The Amazing World of Gumball, South Park, King of the Hill, and Spongebob. Most of the time I’m watching True Crime TV with my mom. 

...I play a lot--and when I say “a lot”, I mean it--of video games. I was practically raised on them. My all-time favorite game is Final Fantasy XV, and it’s been that way for a while. I also really like My Hero One’s Justice 2 and Minecraft. I was into Fortnite for a bit, but when the squad stopped getting on, I fell out of it (again). I own a PC and an Xbox One, hopefully, a PS5 soon, too! If I list all of my favorite video games here, this is going to be much longer than what it is already. If you care, just come find me and ask! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

...Here recently, like the last few months, I’ve gotten really into editing. I’ve made ffan-mademade movie trailers, two of which I’m proud. And in the past week, I got the Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, so I got all the Adobe programs for $20. Thanks to being The BEAT editor, I already knew how to work Premiere Pro, and then I learned Adobe After Effects! I’m still learning, but I’ve made a lot of stuff that I’m mad proud of. You can watch them, and see other things about me, on my TikTok (if it even still exists..! (눈_눈) ) @kib3ra ! Notice how I’m saying that because I have no idea how many people will read these. Just please don’t make fun of me! ヽ(ˇヘˇ)ノ

...At home, I have two cats--Michelangelo (aka Mikey, or BIG MIIIIIKE) and Armin. I also have a pomeranian named Kitty. Can you tell that we’re cat people? At least my dad and I are. 

...And yeah, that’s it. I’m not a very interesting person, I’m pretty straightforward, so you probably already knew all this about me. So, yeah, uhh.. Live a good life, it’s the only one you got. (◕‿◕)♡
