About Me

.. width="425" height="350" ......AIM-CONTACTBRY
i watch tons of films.particularly independent films. they are a huge part of my life. they inspire me. i act and make films too.
•to me, music is life. without music we might as well be dead.
•i believe there is a Creator. i'm not religious at all, but i'm sure there's a better place waiting for us after this life. in my opinion, everyone should have something/someone to believe in.
•i feel i have a very good eye for design, whether it's fashion, interior, set design, etc.
•i'm really laid back and have never truly made any enemies. if someone doesn't like me or vice versa, i just avoid them.
•i'm always there for my friends no matter what.
•i have a pretty positively-sarcastic sense of humor which most appreciate.
•i basically respect you if you respect me. it's definately a two way deal.
•i give you the real deal.
