You must not know about me.

About Me

I'm Jim.
I'm 20.
I breathe music.
This is my band.

I moved to Minnesota for music college, and I love where I'm at.
But, I miss New Jersey, and everything about it.

I have the most incredible friends in the world.
I like to meet people.
I listen very well.

I've lived, learned, loved, and lost.
Succeeded, struggled, started over, and let go.
I've traveled, listened, watched, and worked.
I've celebrated the good times, Dealt with the bad times,
And waited patiently for my time.
I've done amazing things in the past,
And have alot more amazing things to do in the future.
I know what I want out of life,
and I'm not going to stop chasing it.

My Interests

Sex, Drugs, & Rock And Roll

Music, Movies, Gambling, Making Out, Hanging Out With My Friends, Meeting New People, Going To And Playing Shows, Singing, Partying, Deep Conversation, Driving, Seeing The World, Revisiting Memories, and Looking at Photographs.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who doesn't suck.
