About Me


brandon fun fact:
i keep a 1:1 ratio with my mac and cheese. for every box of kraft i buy, i get one of the 99 cent boxes so i can steal its cheese and make the kraft even cheesier. i know its not the way mother nature intended it, but what can i say, i like to keep things cheesy
music is my life, my passion, the one thing that will always matter more than everything else. food is a close second. Conor, Ben, and Chris are gods. i play guitar, write songs. i love playing sports, not watching them. i just moved back to arlington after 3 yrs in las vegas. those two places couldnt be more different. i am very opinionated and try to surround myself with people who are the same, who wont just sit there and listen. im overly considerate too much and I try too hard to please other people, but I cant change and don’t see a reason to anyway. i try to keep an open mind about things; im goofy and weird probably more often than i should be, and im kinda shy at first, but once you get to know me youll probably have a hard time shutting me up. i like to talk, but i like to listen just as much. i love learning from people, and its hard to find people who actually have something interesting to say, so if youre one of them, let me know.

"Do you mean to tell me that youre thinking seriously of building THAT way, when and IF you are an architect?"
"Yes"
"My dear fellow, who will let you?"
"Thats not the point. The point is, who will stop me?"

somebody intelligent that actually has something to say besides what happened last night on americas top model. someone with a hobby or some kind of passion. i dont care what it is, it could be like mating habits of australian sea slugs, but if thats what youre into, great. Its not WHAT you say, its HOW you say it. If you can sit and talk about something like it is the most important thing on earth, that’s all that matters. Anyone who talks to me will know how passionate I am, especially when im talking about music. You can sit there for hours telling me why ______ is so important to you, and ill sit there for hours telling you why jesse lacey is the greatest man alive. if youve read anything by AYN RAND, we could talk for a very very long time, because the more i read by her, the more i think shes right and i think im starting to adopt her philosophy in some ways. "I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine."
