About Me

Hmm ...I don't know if there is an "uncheesy" way to go about this, but here goes.
I enjoy prayer, recovering, and serenity. I dislike chaos but I gravitate toward it. I'm intrigued by problem solving and "being in-between", but I tend to have a hard time embracing it.

I enjoy drawing. I like listening to, and playing music. I love martial arts. I still read comic books. I play a lot of video games. I watch a lot of movies. I'm in a band called "Popular Genius". I listen to more heavy music than a person without a tattoo should. I listen to more pop music than a person who listens to that much metal should. still with me? I am slowly attempting to learn how to sew my own clothes. My favorite color is most likely purple. I can sometimes make myself laugh when I'm alone. I have a metal plate and 6 screws in my hand. I think dinosaurs are funny. So is Dracula. I generally feel that if something is from the future it needs to be shiny and move fast. It also needs many buttons. The idea of robots not understanding love is funny. 809 is my favorite number.
I love my family, I miss my father who is in Iraq. I'm proud of my brother Shawn. I have a pug named Skredgy. (pronounced - Skreh-Gee). I'm grateful for my Mother's wisdom.
I'm grateful for salvation, because I'd be screwed without it.
