I am here for Friends

About Me

Personality wise I would say that I am a very easy to talk to, laid back and all around fun guy to be around. I am also a very spiritual person with a deep and personal relationship with God. I always love to joke and clown around with my friends as much as I like to occasionaly sit down and have intelligent and meaningful conversations about common interests and I love a good conversationalist. I was raised by my parents to be very respectful to everyone but to be especially courteous towards women as they are the orchids of our society.
I'm a pretty versatile person from behaving like a yuppie, to a hood (Come on now I am from G.I. afterall) to my most dominant personality what some people might call a "head" (someone who likes to intellectually discuss everything from music, philosophy, theology, culture ect.) . All of these traits are apart of me through being exposed to the duality of living in Gary Indiana from attending a very rough Middle School and a very prep High School. For 4 years I attended a school for the Visual and Performing Arts majoring in Visual Arts so when I have the time I love to draw and paint portraits to let go of all the pressures of life. I am currently learning how to transfer this talent over to photoshop so I can apply it in a more constructive and maybe profitable manner. Don't be afraid to contact me because I appreciate anyone who takes the time out to get to know me. MyGen Profile Generator
