About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 Electronic music junkie and music addict in general. Paradox of intro and extrovert, laid back, down to earth and adventurous. I tend to like people that save drama for the movies. Life is too short to worry and fret over petty nonsense.
Besides music I do photo stuff too which can be found here

My Blog

A Mind Boggling Misadventure

So I don't normally write blogs, but I feel that the past 4 days more than warrant one. Most likely this will be the kind of thing where you'll be reading and laughing at my misfortune& maybe even jaw...
