About Me


First of, I am UNASHAMED to Rep Jesus Christ. With the fullest of my abilities and dedication of my life
Now if you want to know more about me...you got to chill with me. There is NO WAY I can tell you about me with just words.
I was selfish, greedy, and uncaring for ANYONE, including myself. Infact, if you died right in front of my face...I wouldn't care.
But...that isn't the Raymond you know now huh? Nope. God has been doin work in me,even before I chose "let" him in my heart. I am pretty loving, and caring for anyone...even my "enemies". I am not COMPLETELY self-less, but Christ has made me very giving.
And people say Jesus wasn't real?
I am a living contradiction. Understanding me is pretty complexed. If you understand that... Then I am simple to figure out.
See what I mean?
The basics:
I don't fully understand myself...but I think that just makes things interesting when I find out new stuff.
I have a hard time trusting people, but I am crushed when people don't trust me... I am SLOWLY being able to trust more people.
Unfortunately I tend to think of the worst things possible for outcomes, just because then I won't be unpleasantly surprised.
I like thinking...
I tend to over-think, over-analyze...even if I don't want to....
To stop myself from going crazy I'll listen to music, or watch a movie, or play a game, or work out....(even though you can't tell that I work out)
I love art too.
I suck at art,like...I can't even draw a straight line with a straight edge-- it tends to be slanted,or even crooked.....curved-- but it's cool because I have never wanted to be an artist.
I am an uncreative-creative person....uhh I am creative in an unconventional sense. I mean yeah I write poems, songs, and thing's like that, but I am creative in more than an artistic sense.God's blessed me with a gift of words. Also with the ability to understand, and relate.
I'd like to think I am like Job--- how he had unwavering faith in God... I have had a pretty bad past...most of which not even my closest friends know about. I tend not to let it affect me, or make it be what I'm about.
I am a funny person, or so I like to think, I have a unique sense of humor...I can find everything funny...But, I know when I need to take things seriously, when the buckle down and when to focus.
I tend to play a psychiatrist to my friends...Don't take that as complaining, I love doing so, and actually feel hurt when people don't confide in me.
Want to know more about me? Walk with me. I don't take giant strides, I'm just a man.
That's pretty much it. God bless.
pce.
Its a simple game, and its for a good cause, do it!
My only weaknesses are: Girls who can sing , Gorgeous Eyes , Puppies, and Kool-Aide.
Check that out...

My Interests

Jesus/God...The Bible...Movies.... Music...Art(though I can't draw). Umm. .. I dunno what else...

I'd like to meet:

Music?
Famous people?
First off, with musical artist...

Lecrae
Trip Lee, T-Dot (everyone from the 116 clique basically)
Rob Hodge
Da Truth, The Ambassador (basically, everyone from the Cross Movement)

Now... I'd like to meet my future self.
My future wife.(if I haven't met her yet)
My future kids.
Hmmm

Movies play a big part in my life...so lets go to directors
Akira Kurosawa
Ingmar Bergman
Robert Rodriguez
Quentin Tarantino
and some other directors...

My Grandfathers, My Grandmother on my dad's side...well I knew her...but she died when I was two...My sister...

And finally, also most importantly
God, Jesus, Moses, Adam, David, Paul, Peter, Thomas, and Job(and many more, but the list would be too long)

Music:

Not in order... 116 Clique, Cross Movement, Rob Hodge, K-Drama, Dae-lee, J.A.Z, Tha Reason, Richard Dauphin, And many more...I'm just too lazy to type right now.
I don't only listen to rap though...I listen to all genres. From Classical, to Trance....I just happen to Bump rap in my Truck more so than any other genre...but I do love listening to other stuff. If it's dope, I'll listen to it...if not...then...not.And I give up on secular music. It sickens me prety much.

Movies:

300, Rent, Fallen, Mean Girls, Equilibrium, The Cinderella Story, Sin City, Ella Enchanted, Seven Samurai, Eurotrip, Without A Paddle, The Notebook, Scarface, Hope Floats, Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai, Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead... I like all kinds of movies...and in my opinion there is no such thing as a Bad Zombie Movie. I'm a movie freak...there are MANY more movies I like than just that...but I am too lazy to type too.

Television:
