Hi, I'm Nate

I don't want to be ghetto/emo/preppy/gangsta/punk/goth/cool/hipster/indie/etc.. .I just want to be me. So don't label me.

I'm going to Arizona State to become a Nurse. Make fun if you want but I love it.

I like music a lot. It keeps me alive.

And I still wish on 11:11 and shooting stars...

There's a light on in Chicago
And I know I should be home.

There’s pain in forgetting what you know
when your hands still fold in regret.

There’s pain in suffering all alone
when your eyes still sing of escape.
