About Me

It all started the day of the Tiananmen square massacre. But while all those college kids were busy getting killed by their government i was busy getting born in Sierra Vista. After that, I went home and watched a few episodes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. then i hung out for a while and met a few people and read a few books and heard a few songs. that's pretty much what i'm still doing but im hoping to start doing some new stuff and seeing some new places pretty soon. NOTE: LAURIE IS NUMBER 9 IN MY HEART BUT DUE TO MYSPACE PROBLEMS I AM UNABLE TO EXPRESS THAT OFFICIALLY.

My Interests

skating, hanging out with pals, playing guitar, philosophizing, cruising, and girls are feathers in my cap. waking up early is a black eye. gabe told me that the mayans predicted the world would end in december of 2012. i'm interested to see if this prediction comes true. i'm also interested in the 50's and 60's. that would have been a damn keen time to live in.
