About Me

I'm not normal...

My Interests

Writing/recording/listening to music. Reading as many books as I can. Writing as creatively as possible. Biking as many miles as my lungs will allow. Pumping as much iron as I can afford. Anywhere that isn't Michigan. Art in almost any form. Trying to live down my frat brother looks. Deviantart.com! Being a big, shy bastard. Smiling at strangers. Viewing the tridge from my car. "Rough" days. All night study sessions. Not breaking things. Scaring children with my stature. Making people nervous by giving them crazy eyes. Ignoring the presence of organized sports. Rare and exotic art. Rare and exotic musical instruments. Rare and exotic people. Chivalry. Walking in the rain with no where to go. Answering the same questions over and over about my lip ring.

I Don't Dream, Apparently.

This is the result of me falling asleep on a pad of paper with a pen in my hand. I swear I don't remember writing this. I just woke up with this page in my handwriting. I sometimes wonder who it wa...

Maybe I was screwed from the start!

Came across this little crumpled scribble from when I was 16. I'm not sure if this makes me a hopeless romantic or a pessimistic shoegazer. Love has become a sterile word Being thrown around as re...

Morbid Events
