Random Basic Information

My name is Paul Cruz, I'm a freshman at Duke, I'm in Pratt, and this is my user page. I'm trying to double major in ECE and Computer Science. I'm originally from Houston, Texas. I went to a really small charter school there. I'm in Blackwell now.

Interests

  • League of legends - I'm a Lucian main! I'm also extremely bad at this game. I haven't finished my provisionals. I'm honestly not sure when I'll finish my provisionals.
  • CS:GO - I'm also pretty bad at this game, but it's fun to play whenever I'm tired of league.
  • Tennis - I used to play competitively (years ago) and wanted to start again, so I figured now is the time.
  • Basketball - Never played competitively, but I like to play pickup games at Brodie from time to time.
  • Running - Just a fun hobby.
  • Coding - I'm pretty fluent in Java and C++. I've had some experience with Python and C# before. I mostly create programs for competitions, or just small games for android phones.

Courses I'm In

  • MATH 212 - 8:30am classes are my favorite ._.
  • EGR 103 - I'm working on an assignment for this class right now. I should start on my lab soon.
  • ECON 201 - Pretty awesome class, I should probably start on the homework for that soon too...
  • COMP SCI 201 - MWF last class of the day.
