About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Grunge a

Yeah, who am I? Well, more importantly where am I? I AM HERE! Lets move a little closer. Here are some people who are important to me, and some glimpses from my life. May 24, 1986 I bought myself this set of clothes. Later that day I reinvented punkrock, but sadly this has never been documented. This is my dad. He has quit smoking, but still wears that hat. My Girlfriend gave me this mug. It's a very nice mug, don't you think? Please add Holly to your top friends, and help raise awareness of her rare disorder.

My Interests

I like to draw.Some time ago I bought myself a digital camera. I'm trying to get used to always having it with me. , ,

Books:

Jack Kerouac, , William S. Burroughs, Charles Baudelaire, Allen Ginsberg, Raymond Carver, Charles Bukowski Douglas Adams, Arthur Rimbaud, , I've been very fond of Nick Hornby's work! Very fun and thoughtful reading, and with lots of musical references :) Alsp theres Thomas Wolfe, , Bret Easton Ellis, Bob Dylan and Kurt Vonnegut! , Hocus Pocus and Slaughterhouse 5 are my favorites. Furthermore theres Franz Kafka, Dante, JD Salinger, Irvine Welsch and Cormac McCarthy, . "The Road", which is a novel about a father and a sons attempt of survival, in postapocalyptic America left a major impression on me. I'd recommend anyone to read it, although it's harsh reading! Someone recently told me to read "The Stand" by Stephen King, which apparantly also is about dystopia. I've liked reading King in the past, especially "Christine" was amazing. ,I like music and magazines about music. I mainly read Q Magazine but sometimes I also buy myself a copy of Mojo, NME or Uncut. Whatever is available. , I enjoy comics by - Strid, Frank Miller, Jerry Scot/Jim Borgman, Patrick McDonnell, Gary Larson, Moebius and of course Bill Watterson! , I'm a big Calvin & Hobbes fan. I've been reading them since I was a kid, and still find joy doing so. It's an extremely clever and fun strip, I think. Sadly Watterson has stopped drawing C&H :(

Heroes:

Could be....Nirvana? Shane MacGowan? Joe Strummer? Irvine Welsh?

That was that. Now my shelves and closets are empty. Boxes are stacked in the corners, with all my clothes, my cd's, records, books, magazines, and dishes. My reproductions no longer hang on the walls...
