About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Beauty in the trees

I simply cannot understand why people don't consider me an angel. Think about it. Angels live in heaven. Heaven, is considered by many, paradise. I am from Hawaii. Hawaii, is considered by many, "paradise". And since I am from paradise, all logical reasoning says that I am an angel. But read on, for I am really not conceited. Actually, if you look in the "my heroes" section, you'll see the kind of person I want to be. Humble. A fighter for the things that are right to be fighting for. A man that will be remembered for the kindess and goodness of his heart; a heart that genuinely is respectful, and considerate, and loving to others. I may seem like a mushy guy by saying this, but the truth is, I honestly want to be that kind of person. I have been priveledged to be able to travel to the countries of the Phlilippines, Malaysia, Brazil, Colombia, Peru, and Guatemala. My goal: work full time in a foreign country that has dire needs. I love skateboardin, biking, hiking, exploring new places, learning new languages and cultures, rockin out with friends (or playing peaceful, soothing, lulluaby-like piano melodies), art, history, being outdoorsy, and drinking tea. This is the basics of Roque .. .. .. .. ....~

My Interests

Waking up early enough to get a good running start with my day. If I wait too long my engine dies at dusk, and I usually have to call a tow truck. I like finding things I never knew existed, and exploring those that I did. If music is the thing that stirs our emotions, than I'm a salty waterfall coarsed with angry fish. I love music, and playing it calms my nerves. It's one of the best ways I can express what's inside of me, and one of the best ways I can put you to sleep. And lastly food.

I'd like to meet:

Nobody in particular, yet anyone that comes my way.

Music:

Jazz, Euro-Rock, some forms of trance, classical, chillin music.

Movies:

I love TCM, and AMC movies!!!I used to watch it with my Great-Grandmother and Grandparents, and have accquired a taste for older classics.

Television:

The Simpsons and Family Guy.

Books:

Bible, Sherlock Holmes, Animal Farm, Edgar Allen Poe, Italian in 10 Minutes a Day, Every Man's Talmud, Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy, A Thousand and One Arabian Nights, Pro-Communist Propaganda (just kidding), and any other types of brain candy books.

Heroes:

It is not the critics who count, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man in the arena, who's face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly....who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never known neither victory nor defeat.
