And at the moment, I'm trying to just find my beginner's mind

About Me

Graduated from Virginia Tech some time ago. I currently live in Arlington, Va. I spend a good portion of my day driving to and from work, about three hours a day to be exact. I'm a database administrator for Parsons Brinckerhoff(contractor to FEMA, the greatest government agency ever) No sarcasm there. In my spare time I like long walks on the beach and root beer floats. I'm big in to sports and music and like to knit emo sweaters. Yep I'm weird like that.

My Interests

..//And all at once I realize my life has become a boring pop song and everyone's singing along
..//Well I am no gentleman I can be a prick and I do regret more than I admit
..//I just want one more chance to put my arms in fragile hands
..//Dress your wounds, test your strength, face the night, crave the touch, feel the pain, know the signs, is there truth in your pain, you decide

...Remembering Sunday....

All Time Low - Remembering Sunday, I dunno what it is about this song but it's packed full of raw emotion. Alex Gaskarth lead singer just lets it all hang out in my opinion and Juliet Simms of Automat...
