About Me


My name is Josh.
I take pictures or get new ones occasionally.
I play drums and enjoy it greatly.
I have phenomal taste in A LOT of different types of music.
I don't drink, smoke or do drugs and have not since I was 15.
I greatly dislike alcoholism and therefore have relatively zero interest in parties, bars, and clubs.
I am 20 years old and I'm growing up unbelievably soon.
I am completely right brained, and think far faster than I can talk though I talk fairly fast.
I am an English major, Philosophy minor at ECU. I am in my third year and enjoy both subjects, and yet have no idea what I plan on doing with my life.
I think about the afterlife, morality, religion, theism, and spirituality a lot more than I should. I believe whole heartedly that most people have the wrong idea about "God", be it in meaning, or application.
"You cannot talk about apple juice to someone who has not tasted it. No matter what you say, the other person will not have the true experience of apple juice. The only way is to drink it." -Thich Nhat Hanh
My three closest friends combined know nearly everything there is to know about me and are unbelievably still with me, here and now and I am forever grateful.
I have a million abstract theories about people's behavior, relationships, tendencies and life in general.
I weigh 170 lbs, which is comprised of mostly muscle, water, bones, and dashing good looks and absolutely despise being referred to as skinny. Height does not equal weight.
I have frequent, random nosebleeds, as well as a diagnosed stomach condition, diagnosed bi-polar, minor OCD, and some degree of anxiety. I do my very best to never let any of these things stop or slow me down.
My mom in all her strangeness is the sweetest, most amazing person I've ever met and I owe everything to her.
I work at Panera Bread in Greenville and get pretty much as much free food as I can handle. It's pretty amazing.
I love quotes. Nearly every poster in my room as a quote of some sort on it or is a reference to a band or movie with amazingly good writing.
To sum up: I am bi-polar, honest, fun loving, easily entertained, hard to impress, in love with those who can, hungry for knowledge, extremely competitive, easy to get along with, full of random stories, straightedge, fortunately creative, and ingulfed with the pursuit of self-improvement.
"I met you at a very strange time in my life."
So crucify the ego before it's far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable.
Just let the light touch you and let the words spill through
Just let them pass right through,
bringing out our hope and reason.
