I'm back.... And Muslim now!

Asalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah!
This is my second attempt at writing my introduction, because the last time I wrote way too much, lol. I will try to simplify this post!
So my name is Kyle, and I am a Junior Sociology major at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Though I was born and raised in Austin. I have been on a spiritual journey for 6 years, at least! I remember one time seeing on television some Muslims protesting a movie about Jesus, so I decided to do some googling. After doing some googling, I was intrigued that Muslims believed in Jesus. I started reading, reading, reading, and I was amazed. But let me be honest... I am a die-hard liberal. The most liberal person someone will ever meet. So, I didn't want to become Muslim because I felt it was too conservative. So, I was still reading on Islam but I wanted to enhance my faith as a Catholic. I started going to Church and reading the Bible, but the more I read, the more disenchanted I became. The Bible was just full of flaws and made no sense.
So I left Christianity and claimed to be agnostic, though in my heart I knew Islam was the truth. (For a few years, I was obsessed with trying to disprove Islam. Didn't work.) So I accepted Islam as true but did not want to become a Muslim due to my liberalness. Well, going to college was great and moving away from home really gave me a chance to meet new people, go to a mosque, etc. So, I met up with this revert at Starbucks and we talked for an hour or so. I was moved by how sweet and proud she was to be a Muslimah. I knew in a matter of time I would have to accept it. One day, a scholar came to the University to have a lecture (Sh. Omar Suleiman!) I attended the lecture and was amazed at how friendly Muslims were. Prior to college, I was a wild liberal who thought all Muslims were rude simply because of forums where people get too crazy, lol. Well, I said my shahadah that day, and have been a Muslim since! No one knows except fellow Muslims and a few friends, but I have kept it secret from my family because they are devout Catholics and I just don't think the time is right.
So now I am a Muslim, alhumdullillah! Still need to improve on saying my prayers and memorizing ayats, but insha allah I will do that soon.
So there's my story. There is so much more to it, but it would be long as all get-out. I am still a very liberal person, but I have learned that Islam is not so conservative. It is moderate. Yes, many things are sinful, but privacy is valued and this life is nothing but a test! Though I am still far from perfect, I'm trying to correct my ways and differentiate between my liberalness and Islam.

There's my story in a nutshell! I should probably make a video and discuss my reversion, as it is a long and interesting story.
I look forward to learning more about Islam on this forum and I hope to make some online pals, or even meet some fellow San Antonians. I know the Bible front and back, and know quite a lot about fiqh and aqeedah. I hope to continue my studies and attend the masjid when I can. Islam is a beautiful religion, and while it is sad that it took six years for me to see that, better late than never.

Wa salaam!
