So nice to meet you, I see right through that smile so in other words, I hope I never see your face

About Me

What the hell do I even put here? I love music. I love discussion-if I get into an argument with you, DON'T take it personally. I really love being with my friends. They know me and all of my imperfections and love me even more for them. I'm only human. I tend to be headstrong, extremely stubborn, and very emotionally volatile. At the same time, I can be the most gentle and tender person you will know. I can love unconditionally, and forgive always. I'm a writer of sorts, or so they tell me. Writing for expression has always been my strong suit, but words tend to get jumbled when I attempt to speak... As for me... I am about 5'8", a bit stocky, crazy hair, 140 lbs(And DAMN proud of it), slender hands, eye color changes depending on the day or what I'm wearing at the moment. I hate generalizing. Period. Word to the wise-DON'T classify me because you don't truly know me yet. 19 now, and finally in college. Since I really have no clue about what I want to do when I 'grow up,' I'll just get back to you on that one I want to learn physics. Isn't it strange that a bowling ball and a feather fall at the same rate, disregarding air friction? Lol. I am still learning how to laugh at myself. It is one of the hardest things I've ever learned how to do. I love my extended family, they always make me laugh.

My Interests

MUSIC, reading, learning to see humor in everything, spending endless hours writing, pondering existence, gaming, card games, board games, MEETING NEW PEOPLE, listening to more music, playing guitar, talking to friends, that kind of thing

I'd like to meet:

Bert McCracken. Hell, you know what? Every member of The Used. A boy who will want to just hold me like I'm precious until the stars fade away. My great-grandparents. All emo boys because they are adorable. Some one in a crowd who will say 'yes' when I ask them if I can have a kiss. Random people who cross my path.

Music:

Rock. I listen to mostly rock, old, new, punk, pop, classic, modern, whatever other names it has. Still rock. What kinds of bands? It goes like these: The Used, Panic! At The Disco, My Chemical Romance, AFI, Yellowcard, Jimmy Eat World, The Matches, Avenged Sevenfold, The Doors, Matchbook Romance, Silverstein, Cartel, Good Charlotte, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, The Pink Spiders, KillHannah, It Dies Today, A Perfect Circle, Sum 41, From First To Last, Death Cab For Cutie, The Starting Line, Avenged Sevenfold, Count Zero, New Found Glory, Simple Plan, Audioslave, Green Day, Alice In Chains, Senses Fail, Nirvana, Motion City Soundtrack, Story of The Year, Nickelback, Journey, The Bravery, The All-American Rejects, The Foo-Fighters, 30 Seconds to Mars, Seether, Styx (hell yes), U2, Blink 182, Thrice, Boston, Fall Out Boy, Crash Romeo, NOFX, Underoath, HelloGoodbye, The Academy Is..., Paramore, Escape The Fate, One Last Embrace, Kansas, The Killers and Saosin, among others.

Movies:

Here are just a few I appreciated Serenity, Sahara, Sleepy Hollow, all three Pirates of the Carribean, all the Scary Movies, Lord of the Rings, Happy Feet, Hellboy, Underworld and Underworld Evolution, Men In Black and MIB II, The Last Samurai, all of the 007 movies (Casino Royale was pretty good too), The Brothers Grimm, Shrek, Shrek II, and Shrek III, Edward Scissorhands, Van Helsing, Resident Evil, Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve, Secret of Roan Inish, Zoolander, AVP, all of the X-men movies, The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, The Whole Nine Yards, The Whole Ten Yards, Rent, others that I can't recall right now.

Television:

Family Guy, Futurama, South Park, The Simpsons, CSI, Jackass and anything on Fuse or IMF (international music feed) because they actually play music videos. I don't really watch TV too much...maybe once a month. Yes, that's me in the chair.

Books:

I used to read quite a bit, but recently I haven't as much. Sad, I know. I like historical fiction and fantasy, but it's not all I read. I'm always open to new books. I have too many books. Here are some authors that I liked. Anne McCaffery, Tamora Pierce, Phillip Pullman, K. A. Applegate, J.R.R. Tolkein, Phillipa Gregory, Anne Rice, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Ernest Hemingway, William Shakespeare, Anita Diamant

Heroes:

I have two heros- GIR-who will be the most amazing psychotic sidekick ever, and MY MYSPACE WIFE ZANDREA BECAUSE SHE'S BRAVE AND BEAUTIFUL AND I LOVE HER!!!
