I am here for Friends

About Me

I've been called Relaxing, stressful, intense, exciting, calm, quiet, loud, lazy, hyper, and non-existent. I figure I'm all those things at different times (except that last one, I'm pretty sure I do in fact exist). I just graduated from McGill University. I 'm about to go travel around Australia and New Zealand for 6-12 months, which should be awesome. I pretty much laugh all day because I find almost all situations a little funny, and I make myself laugh constantly (while other people rarely laugh at my jokes). I love music. it's a huge part of my life. I've been playing Guitar for over 11 years, but I probably sound like its only been 3. regardless, I love playing music and writing songs, and every now and then I tend to blow myself away. I'm such a fan of rock and anything from the punk scene that came out between 1994 and 1999. so good. I have the worlds best friends (but who doesn't think their friends are amazing, why would they be your friends then?). And My family is the greatest. Especially my mom, she's pretty much devoted her life to her kids, and I don't know how I'll ever repay her for that. I tend to be extremely mellow, which doesn't mean I'm not passionate about things, I just don't stress-out over the small things. The reason for this is I figure it's totally not worth it to freak out or cry about everything, and life is too short to get angry over pointless things. And over all, the truth is shitty things happen to good people and that's just the way life goes. I try to learn new stuff from everyone I meet and everything I experience, and I always try to understand someone else's point of view. I love to travel so much, I've been lucky and have been able to go to many many places around the world, and I hope everyone will be able to go somewhere they never even dreamed was possible. I love bowling but am terrified that my fingers are going to get stuck in the ball. I am obsessed with the sun, sand, the beach, and the ocean. And I love the Summer. Bring on the heat. I'm a total nerd, I know heaps of useless information, and I have no idea where I learned most of it.

My Interests

I play guitar, write songs (poorly), and draw (just as poorly). I love to travel, my favorite places that I've been to are Australia, Hawaii, England, San Diego, and Denmark. World cultures fascinate me. Snowboarding is good times, except for when I broke my leg and everyone laughed at me. Building and fixing things. Poker. Indie movies and music. Hot-humid weather, palm trees. Smiles and Laughter.
