God, I Really Hate Myself So Much Right Now!!

About Me

There isn't really much to say about me. I am a huge geek who thinks he's pretty rad when in all reality, I am not so cool. I really like my stuff to be black, I like my clothes to be black, my hair to be black, and I even like my bed to be black. And yes, I may be straight edge, but I still know how to have a good time. Kool-Aid and candy parties are the best!!
I just recently graduated from the Art Institute of Vancouver, earning my diploma in Digital Film and Video. I am now currently trying to start a career in the film and television industry. So if you know anyone who is hiring, or are someone who is hiring, please let me know!!
But if you really want to know "about me", stop being so shy, just walk across the room and strike up a conversation, I won't bite. Goodnight!!!
P.S.
I am a PISCES - The Partner for Life
Caring and kind. Smart. Center of attention. High appeal. Has the last word. Good to find, hard to keep. Fun to be around. Extremely weird but in a good way. Good Sense of Humor!!! Thoughtful. Always gets what he or she wants. Loves to joke. Very popular. Silly, fun and sweet.

This list could get just as retarded as my music list as well, just give it some time...

I mostly just watch t.v. on DVD or what is downloaded on the computer, but there are a few shows that I watch religously. The Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, The Office (uk), Viva La Bam, Twin Peaks, X-Files, South Park, Chappelle's Show, Little Britain, Extras, Cooking shows (Food Network, baby!!), Entourage, The Sopranos, 24, Dead Like Me, Da Ali G Show, Lost, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Hell's Kitchen, The Kumars at No.42, Samurai Jack, Scrubs, Supernatural, Heroes, Wonder Showzen, Kenny Vs. Spenny, Dr. Who, and anything Sid and Marty Krofft (HR Pufnstuf anyone?).

Books:

I am currently reading "Everybody Hurts" by Leslie Simon & Trevor Kelley and Nigella Lawson's "How to Eat."

My favorites include: "1984" George Orwell, "Scar Tissue" Anthony Kiedis, "The Zombie Survival Guide" and "World War Z" Max Brooks, "The Autobiography of Malcolm X" Alex Haley, "Hitchhiker's Guide 'Trilogy' " Douglas Adams, "jPod" Douglas Coupland, Neil Gaiman novels, Chuck Palahniuk novels, The Harry Potter Collection, Star Wars novels, Choose Your Own Adventures, Cookbooks, and Comic books.
