I'm Thomas James Diede, I was born May 6, 1985 in Aberdeen, SD and have lived here all my life. I love South Dakota but I hate Aberdeen by far. I currently attend Northern State University as well; GO WOLVES!
I have a strong passion for music, I love just about every kind but I am mainly a rock person: soft, yacht, hard, classic, metal, some punk and some emo. I love country music as well, afterall I am a Dakota Kid. Jazz is alright, not too bad, and other forms are cool too. Not too big on rap/hip hop, but there are some good ones out there.
Some things to know:
I am a hopeless romantic.
I am a sucker for love songs. Four out of every five CD's I have burned are sappy (I prefer the term "heartfelt") love songs.
I am Christian, pro-life, conservative, and Republican in that order.
I have a camera and I like to use it. Camera-shy people piss me off.
When you are in my car and I am driving, *I* control the music!
My biggest pet-peeve is when people answer questions meant for me, or if they contradict the answer I give them.
I also have a strong dislike for ass-kissers, over-achievers, prima donnas, extreme atheists, extreme pro-choicers, extreme liberals, and cock-sure idiots.
In addition to my passion for music, I have a passion for my faith. As a Christian (Lutheran to be exact) I believe that God the Father created the earth in six days, he sent his son Jesus Christ to suffer and die for our sins, and in the Holy Spirit who keeps our faith strong. Christ is my Savior, Glory be to God on high, Blessed be the Holy Spirit. There is Victory in the Lord I say! Cling to the Father and His Holy Name, and don't go riding on that Long Black Train.
