About Me

so i should prolly put something here, but i can't really think of anything amusing or clever.
i'm alberto
i'm not asian _
so seriously don't ask me if i am
umm i like to party and chill but party, and there's always chill time, so it all works out in the end, eh
i don't like t.v. because it keeps people from actually talking to one another, like the parlor walls in Farenheit 451.
it's an imitation of life.
i have a hard time, honestly, connecting to other people
it's all fake and rubbish bullshit, the cheap mesh of pop culture and what to say to have something in common
i don't think anyone gets me
and i think everything to death.
i'm naturally pessimistic.
...racism is wrongg, but funny so: i'm sorryy
ohh and i'm pretty quiet til i get to know a person better, so cut me some slack, yea?
k, that's it.
IM me: CuriousBerto
[i go to cal poly pomona, ima a sosh major with an option in social work, n im thinking bout my future n thinking that the peace corps might be an intereting experience]
my thoughts are misguided and a little naive, i got myxamatosis.

My Interests

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes “Awww!" -Jack Kerouac
