I edited my profile at MsPremade.com . check out these Myspace Layouts!
So…I got asked to write something in the "about me" section here on myspace. Apparently if you don't know me that well, all you know is that I’m a musician that likes cheeseburgers. Since I'm bored right now with nothing to do, here we go...Well I moved out to Los Angeles in January of 04' to pursue music production. I'm originally from a small town 45 mins north of Boston called Tyngsboro (the proper name Tyngsborough, but whatever) I went to a two year private school in Boston called the New England Institute of Art and graduated with a degree in audio engineering. Coming from a art school, in those two years in Boston I’ve meet some of the most interesting people and learned alot from them about life and other such things... Ever since I was really young I always wanted to eventually make my way out to California. In high school I visited my brother in the great city of San Francisco and feel in love with it. Spring break my last year in college I came out to California again to visit my cousin who was living in Los Angeles and feel in love with it too. Figuring that LA was my best bet to succeed in my field in California I decided to move there. I felt that living in Boston limited my possibilities in recording music. The sky is the limit in LA. I guess I can call me somewhat "adventurous". So shortly after graduating I moved back to the most boring town in america, saved some money and drove cross country with some good friends of mine. I recommend taking your time driving cross-country with some friends. There's alot of crazy stuff in this country. When I moved out here I was first living with my cousin, who I owe alot to. After six or seven months I got my own place, eventually one of best friends Rob moved out here, after almost a year he moved back east. I miss you buddy. The past couple years I’ve been working stupid retail to make rent, while trying to get a job in audio in this vicious city.** At my job I’ve meet some great people, including a band mate of mine. We're called "a faulty chromosome," check us out @ www.myspace.com/afaultychromosome. I guarantee you will like the music. If you don't like it you don't like music, just kidding, but seriously. Music is my life. I constantly have music in my head all day. I have trouble concentrating on things because I have melodies in my head and sometimes all I want to do is just go home and play out what’s in my head. That probably explains my poor grades in high school. But I graduated high school and college. So to all the high school teachers that told me that I wasn't going to succeed in life with bad grades in high school can blow me, just kidding, but then again seriously. Well at least I got good grades in college. I can be a little shy at first but once you get to know me I’m not. I'm really easy to get along with. But if your annoying, immature and complain alot, I probably won't get along with you. When I meet people it takes me a little while to constantly hang out with them on a daily basis. I guess living in a city with a bunch of people that are full of shit it may happen. It just seems like alot of people out here take advantage of kindness and when its there turn to return a favor, they won't or just avoid you. I know people like that and I’ve decided to just avoid them. Over the years I've realized who are my real friends are and who aren't. Just from moving 3000 miles southwest of my hometown, there are people who still call me to see how I’m doing and people who don't call me anymore for no reason that only they know. Then there are "friends" that only call me if they need something, that’s worst than not calling. Friends should be companions who inspire us, who help us rise to our best. Over the years I’ve realized that I tend to surround myself with intelligent people. They’re the most interesting people I have done most of my learning about life through these people. But my goal in life is to just be happy for the rest of my life and write and produce great music for you. I don't need to be rich (of course I won't complain if I am one day, which I think I will be) My main goal is to make enough money to move my parents out here and the rest of my family. They have always been there for me through everything and I LOVE them very much. I miss my family and friends very much, they hate the fact that I live so far away but they know I have business to take care of....... "what I do and what I dream include thee, as the wine must taste of its own grapes" **UPDATE** - Since I've wrote this i got a job finally in the audio industry and it's sweeeet! click here
