About Me

Yo Soy Joaquin, Lost in a world of confusion....yeah that's me.Hopelessly idealistic with sardonic undertones,quixotic and too passionate(or is that out of control?) for most common folk. Constantly in search of a greater story to tell or song to sing. I'm the sweetest guy in the world. I'm a demon possessed. I'm working on balance. What Type of Skinhead are You?
You're a Suedehead.you've grown the hair out a bit, like to dress sharp and listen to a lot of soul music. one might even say you're almost mod. that's not a horrid thing now is it?
