About Me


Get More MySpace Layouts like mine at MyspaceBrand.com
I am a pretty laid back individual, and I tend to just be a "go with the flow" kind of guy. I have always been pretty easy to get along with just about everybody, kind of humors me when I have some friends who don't exactly LOVE eachother but I continue to be best friends with them for years lol. I have a strong sense of loyalty to those who I would consider friends, and consider many of them damn near family. I have always remained a pretty level headed individual, and I approach life from the idea that I can always look for ways to improve myself, and rather than always trying to place blame and "pass the buck", I try to figure out what I might have done differently so that the next time it works out. I try to be forgiving of mistakes and people, because spending your time holding anger and grudges in your heart just seems a disheartening and unappealing way to live. It's better to progress and grow with someone than beat them up over it. Other than that, just a laid back kinda guy who loves making new friends, playing guitar, and playing a game or watching a movie from time to time...

My Interests

Music has been a good chunk of my life lately, with my rekindled interest in the guitar I have made a focused committment on a set of personal goals and I am set to achieve most of them by the summertime, or if not, end of the year. Other than that simple thing, I enjoy the occasional video game, movie, or just chill session with my friends, something as simple as bs'ing and sitting on a couch can provide me with more entertainment and joy than most luxuries and unnecessary things life has to offer that cost 10x as much.

I'd like to meet:

Making new friends is always cool, just please send me a message before you try to add me. I am a pretty easygoing person and get along with just about anybody, but I mostly use this page to keep in touch with old friends from high school across the country, and sometimes new ones as well.

Music:

Dave Matthews, Bob Marley, Ludacris, Dashboard Confessional, A Perfect Circle, Tool, Offspring, Foo Fighters, 311, Incubus, Evanescence, Creed, The Vandals, Justin Timberlake, Jack Johnson, Led Zepplin, Jimi Hendrix, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Coheed and Cambria, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, Weird Al Yankovic, Alanis Morissette, Rage Against the Machine, A Tribe Called Quest, Arrested Development, and many more. My personal choice is pretty eclectic with the exception of pretty much country, which I haven't found a way to enjoy yet, but even the listed above don't restrict me to them, as I love finding new and interesting music to listen to.

Movies:

Other favorites include Good Will Hunting, Star Wars movies, LOTR Movies, Braveheart, Brain Candy, GO!, and many more.

Television:

I generally don't watch much tv, but some favorites are: Nip/Tuck, House and SVU reruns on USA. TV is kinda boring but when a good show is on nowadays it's a really good show it seems. Screw all this reality tv, it's less and less about creativity(which good tv was always about) and more about extremes and ridiculousness.

Books:

Books aren't something I get to much often, wish I could read more sometimes but if something isn't constantly changing material I have a tendency to get bored. Maybe someday..

Heroes:

I wouldn't say I worship anyone to the point of being heroes, but I guess my mom would be one, who dealt with my attitude while I was a little shit for my ages 10-20 I would have to say. I appreciate her more now for what she did, despite all the mistakes she made she was good to me. 311 and Dave Grohl have always been idols more than heroes I guess, because I respect their approach to music and life in general, keeping things positive or having an approach that I enjoy music of.

My Blog

I wrote a song!

I had done this before, a couple of times, but I guess this time it was far more cathartic.  It wasn't even that it was a great or even something I would consider a good song, still being in pret...
