((Still under construction...))"Take a glimpse inside;
my veins, my pride,
and see what's on the other side..." music layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com

This'll be in-depth... I need to write it out later...
Everyone I was meant to...(Art by Samantha... Do not touch without confirmed and wildly expressed consent by my friend/gifted artist or I'll be forced to hunt your sorry ass down and remove your hands for your thievery.)These men are the reason I'm still standing... When nothing else could reach me, their music became the blood that sustained me and gave my essence life again. I currently have their mark upon me as a thank you, a reminder to myself, and a symbol of pride to share to others who can understand the powerful, unifying force that is music.

Don Quijote de la Mancha... A man of fiction, but this unorthidox hero, poet, and champion to the world of lost honor and dreams is the very embodiment of who I wish I could be... And for the real world: the ones in my family who have actually supported and loved me, regardless; my friends both here and far way who mean more to me than breath; the many unsung who've fought and died to bring some good and restore some sense of honor throughout the world; my teachers who've believed and pushed me beyond the limits of education, and the many musicians who've not only fortified my creativity and inner strength, but who've also taken the time to get to know the human behind the title of "just a fan". Thank you.
