About Me

Ok, a little about me. I was born in raised in South Central Los Angeles. My mom and I lived there with my grandmother (RIP) until I was about 13. My mom met a very good man at that point and we then movied to Redondo Beach. That was probably one of the best things to happen in my life. From there I went to Mira Costa High School and graduated in 2002. I'm still attending El Camino Community College but I'm also working on going to LA Film School (damn you student loans haha).Right now I'm really trying to focus on film and writing. I use this page mostly to post my movie reviews and other entertainment blogs but I also use it to keep up with all my friends and also meet new people who share my interests. I really want to get into screenwriting and i'm also looking into internships at various studios.I just passed my one year anniversary at Daily Grill and the job has, so far, been very good to me and I've met some cool people through working there. Had a bit of a rough 2006 with various family issues and my grandmother's passing but 2007 seems to look bright and I look forward to making this a year of personal growth.Get MySpace Layouts from nUCLEArcENTURy .COM OR create your own using MySpace profile editor !!!

My Interests

My interests include film, screenwriting, journalism, photography, hanging out, going to the movies, exploring my creativity and meeting new and spontaneous people. I like Mexican Food (can't live without my chips and Salsa). I like Panda Express, The Sausage Mcmuffin at Macdonalds. I'm a frequent visitor to Best Buy and Circuit City, especially on DVD tuesday. I have a little over 300 DVD's and 100 VHS movies. I like doing random things and just sitting around and hanging out doesn't really bother me either. I prefer Pepsi over Coke but can't tell the difference between 7-up and Sprite. When I think of other random blurbs I'll throw them onto the list. I love comedy as well and writing it!!!! GOTS TO BE FUNNY YO!

C+Despite the grade I'm giving The Eye, I think that it's a technically well made ghost story. I've never seen the 2002 film on which this on is based, but the basic ideas here are intriguing and it's...
