About Me

hello there. my name is mike & i'm a pretty swell guy, if i do say so myself. i was born in dallas,texas and apart from a couple of years in tyler, texas for school i've lived here my whole life. despite having an enormous amount of pride for my home state (as most texans do), i really would like to live somewhere a little more fabulous like NYC, London or even Seattle. seeing where life takes me has been a thrill ride so far, so i can't wait to see what the future holds! to that end, i'm currently working on an associate of the arts degree with an emphasis on journalism at brookhaven college. i've struggled with school all my life, but i'm confident that i'll soon be successful & prove all the haters wrong lol. anything you could ever really want to know about me is detailed under each of myspace's unique headings....i've spent a lot of time making this page look as aesthetically pleasing as possible, so if you'd take some time to check out what i have to offer i'd appreciate it. peace.
mike's mix radio turn it up.

My Interests

first & foremost, i'm a massive nerd...i absolutely adore most comic books, but more specifically the X-Men and Marvel Comics. this adoration was officially upgraded to lifetime membership status by one of my best friends, Crystal, when she paid for me to get the X-Men logo tattooed on my wrist. what? i'd been threatening to do it for years & there's a good chance that if you're reading this you already know my nerdyness is staggering, & if not...well consider yourself forewarned lol. on that note, my 10 favorite X-Men & Marvel characters are:
Emma Frost & Cyclops

Dazzler

Ms Marvel

Havok & Polaris

Rachel Summers/Marvel Girl

Spider-Woman

Pixie

X-23

another huge interest of mine are, of course, my fabulous friends & family:

other than that...i enjoy dancing like a crazy person, looking up random crap on Wikipedia, preparing for the variety show me & Mary will never have, playing Wii, cooking (when i have directions), camping & browsing nifty internet sites.

some favorite websites/blogs of mine: Fwoosh Pink Is The New Blog Comics Should Be Good! Project Rungay VirtualNES Dlisted Uncannyxmen.net ENERGY98 stuff white people like

I'd like to meet:

Brandon Flowers & Matthew Fox, please. lol

Music:

music is a huge part of my life. i'm obsessed with it & could list about 50 artists that i adore, but i nobody wants to read that long of a list anyhow. in a nutshell, i've always preferred my music to be upbeat & happy, so i've got a real soft spot for any kind of music that can make me dance, be it hip-hop, pop or even country (though usually only the songs about drinking lol). keeping with the dance angle, i also listen to a wide range of electronic music such as progressive house (dave audé, stuart price/jacques lu cont), trance (dave dresden, tiësto), & lots of big gay remixes by someone fabulous like the freemasons, chris cox or bimbo jones lol. some of my all-time favorites:

Beyoncé

Britney Spears

the Spice Girls

Kylie Minogue

Cher
the Killers

Blake Lewis

Dannii Minogue

music video of the moment:

Solange - "Sandcastle Disco"

Movies:

much like with the music section, i could probably ramble on forever about movies that i enjoy. instead let's keep it simple, some faves:

Romy & Michelle's High School Reunion

200 Cigarettes

The Dark Knight

the X-Men series

Clueless

Monster

The 40 Year Old Virgin

the Bridget Jones' Diary series

Television:

well now that i have a DVR & can watch any show i want any time...i kind of watch alot, these are the shows i currently follow:
LOST

Desperate Housewives

Ugly Betty

Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List
Weeds

Smallville

Samantha Who?

Grey's Anatomy

i'll also watch just about any gross surgery show on Discovery Health and most of the shows on Bravo are great too (though now that Project Runway is moving to Lifetime, i may lose interest since i won't be exposed to their commercials ad nauseam anymore). some off the air show that i love & own on DVD would be ALIAS, Jericho, Batman: The Animated Series, Sex & The City, Veronica Mars, The Golden Girls, Roseanne, the Nanny, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman & The Osbournes.
