About Me


Our biggest fear is not that we are inadequate
Our biggest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure
--Marianne Williamson

yo
i've been kickin it since 1988
i need music as much as the air i breathe
i write to express, rather than impress
i absolutely LOVE college
although classes, papers, and tests get in the way of everything
i live for nights out with my crew
i have a healthy obsession with football
i want to change the world
i'm kind of a big deal
i'm a walking example of Murphy's Law
and that wanting something doesn't make it yours
despite all i'm glad for what i've got
i'm done with what i've lost
my whole life is laid out right in front of me
"The whole world,
myself included,
seem to have one thing in common:
We're just a crowd of people
who don't really fit in anywhere
attempting to convince one another
that we do."
--andrew mcmahon

My Interests



It's college.
Make mistakes.
Make some twice.
Make the same mistakes because it is too good to only make once
Forgive others.
Forgive yourself.
Forget things.
Party on a weekend.
Party harder on the weekdays.
Forget that you partied at all.
Get sick.
Get so sick that you don't remember how you got sick.
Skip class.
Watch movies instead of doing homework.
Stay up all night before a final.
Be spontaneous.
Make plans.
Break plans.
LOVE.
Get attached.
Get jealous.
Fall hard.
Break hearts and get your heart broken.
Cry.
Cry harder than you ever have, then laugh at it later.
Laugh so hard you can't stop.
Have moments that you wish would never end.
Have moments you wish never began.
Have conversations that you'll never forget.
Have conversations without saying a word.
Be confused.
It will all become clear eventually.
It's college
