About Me

I am a international player in training.
I love walking city streets at night that are saturated with neon lights
If I had better grammar I'd probably be a music reviewer..I would love to have job just listening to music. Maybe I should become a DJ.
I try to visually document all the shit that inspires me.
I am person with many ideas but I have a hard time focusing on one.
Like Pepa said in "Shoop" my weakness is men. Especially older, confident, and cultured men.
