Howdy, I'm Raskuly, or just Rask! I go by the name Brandon, and I like to edit Wikipedia pages as a hobby. I've really increased my activity on the site as of late, and I've been trying to learn more about Wikipedia. I'm always learning and I will make mistakes, so please approach me politely about anything I've done wrong! Originally, I mainly contributed to lists, and I still do, but I've shifted to writing proper sections of articles instead. Typically, I write about tropical cyclones in the Atlantic basin, crime in the United States, and association football.
I was born in Maryland, but I've lived in Florida since I was 4-years-old, and I have little memories of my time in Maryland and Virginia (where I lived even longer), so I consider myself essentially a native Floridian. I have Central American and West Indian ancestry from my grandmother's side, more specifically Honduran and Caymanian, but on my grandfather's side I have ties to England and settlers of the Delmarva region.
My grandmother immigrated to the United States from the Honduran cay island of Bonacca south of the larger island of Guanaja and settled in Florida in the early 1950s while my grandfather, who was from Virginia, served in the United States Air Force. They met, and despite my grandmother's darker skin (remember, he was from the south), they fell in love, married, and had four children. Their youngest and only son was my father, and he had me with one of his girlfriends. I don't know much about the specifics of my mother's ancestry, but she appears to have heavy ancestral ties to England as well.
I'm a big fan of association football, or soccer, and I'm a supporter of Orlando City. I don't consider myself an outright fan of other clubs, but I am fond of Arsenal, Wrexham, Bradford City, Le Havre, 1. FC Saarbrücken, Racing de Ferrol, and Bari. Growing up I played soccer, but I got out of when I was around 13-years-old when I was a member of Titusville Soccer Club, but around 18-years-old I got into the sport again. I really wish I would've stayed interested with the sport because I might've been able to play at a high school or college/university level.
