About Me

I like movies that are more fun to quote than they are to watch. I am vegan because animals don't belong to humans, we all belong equally to this planet. I try to live my life to where i leave the smallest possible footprint on the planet. Not only by minimizing waste but by causing the least amount of pain to other people and animals.
I dont go anywhere without chapstick. I love my girlfriend and my dog... i dont know what i'd do without them.AIM = sam autofx
