Strive for excellence, not perfection.

A great secret of success is to go through life as a man who never gets used up.

About Me

Well first off my name is ben. I like going fishing and camping I love the great outdoors there is nothing else like it. also concerts are a must for me on a regular basis I love music. im currently going to mesa community college where I have been for the last 2 1/2 years. what can I say I'm takin my time. after mcc I will go on to asu. im a very chill person, i hate drama i cant stand that shit and people who bring it around me. i like to just relax and look at the brightside of life. if you know me in real life you know this already. im a very cheerful person for the most part. what can I say I'm just a outgoing guy.. one important thing that i have learned is that you shouldnt take life for granted live everyday to its fullest and be grateful for what u have it could be a lot worse!

My Interests
