About Me


If you post a lot of pointless bulletins, I will delete you.
...............I'm an aspiring music journalist. It's one of the best jobs I could ask for. I've already gotten to meet some of my heroes. It's the next best thing to being in a band. I don't want any other job. Go ahead and wear the right clothes, get your hair cut like a girl. What's better than being afforded the state to live within the music?
...............Music is something part of who I am today. There's not too many things that can compare to the importance of it. I think it can make anything better. I love when it's better than life. When it makes life into things that should be in movies. I love sharing it. I love mutual interest in it. I love when it's a soundtrack to a moment and memory. I love finding bands that, for some odd reason, aren't as popular as they should be. Life without a love for music is one that lives with blinders..............................Other: I'm a lot of subtle things. Introverted to a positive extent. I come across as a quiet observer, but I've got plenty to say. Sometimes just listening provides more than talking ever could. I like sports a good bit. I'm hoping to be a music or sports journalist (hopefully print journalism). I go to Temple University. I write for the Temple News. I'm focusing on music writing right now and next year I think I'll try sports out. I just want to devote myself to one thing each year. Sometimes people have a hard time figuring me out. I care a lot, but sometimes I appear elsewhere. I'm much better than I used to be. Am I definible? Probably. If you get to know me. I like talking to people who can hold a conversation because I take interest in people.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Interesting people.
