What We Do In Life Echoes In Eternity

About Me

Who am I? It's a work in progress, I'll get back to you. For those that don't know me, I'm crazy. For those that do know me: I'm Edwin. Facts: I'm young but not naive. I go to UHD, majoring in Intl. Bizzness and Espanol. I got a dog name bizkit, a rottwieler mix. I work. I sleep. I play guitar. I like to read alot. I like all types of music: from russian classical composers to funk. I like art: graffitti to early renissance painters, mixed media, photography... I like spoken word (poetry). I like to swim. I'm learning how to surf. ME: I hate drama, esp that dating 'game' drama. Be honest and yourself around me and I'll be the same. I'm a tolerant person that's open to new ideas and ways of thinking, cultures, food, music, etc. I pity people that wear their heart on their sleeve.You know what you need to do, so stop bitching and do it. I hate people that have talents and opportunities in life to be a better person but they ignore it. I have a knack for observing and absorbing everything and everyone around me. I have a photographic memory. I can notice very subtle body language and facial expressions, it's scary.Give me ten seconds and I can tell you everything about you that I know. So don't bullshit me. I saw it coming. It takes a lot to piss me off. I'm a dependable person. I'm a nice guy and nice guys finish last. A man can be strong and can be compassionate as the same time. I can wait. I'm not afraid of dying. When I die, I won't be remembered for the money I had or bullshit like that. I'll be remembered for being a good person. I live my life with no regrets and I try to learn from my mistakes, sooner or later. I forgive easily, but I never forget. Life is too short for that.
