About Me

i'm a very laid back individual, i just have violent hobbies. people think fighters are angry aggressive people when most of the time the reverse is true, it gets all of that out of your system. when you're good at it, fighting is just something that's gotten inside you that you love and you can't explain to anyone why, unless they've tasted success in the ring, or on the mat, or in the cage. it's irrational and self destructive and completely addictive. but we all need a hobby.
i like to play pool. don't gamble with me.
i like to read a lot.. a little bit of everything. i love to learn something new. i write a little. check out my blogs.
