About Me

---SO IM ON SPACES.MSN.COM/SAL-0823 http://www.gkko.com/videos/1928/family-guy-wheres-mymoney/ http://www.gkko.com/videos/2706/iraqies-bombed/ lets see, what can i say about myself. i am 20yrs old, i was born in dallas, tx. ive had an "ok-life." my parents divorced when i was 5, best thing really. i never would have had the life ive had had they stayed married. i went to catholic school for awhile. i was shocked went i went to public school. to be honest, i was pretty heavy my whole life. when i was starting my junior year of high school, i weighed 270lbs. when i graduated in 2004, i weighed 163lbs. i lost a 107lbs in about a year and a half. its been the greatest accomplishment in my life. after i graduated i joined the army reserves. i enlisted as a 21w, carpentry/maonry. i decided i wanted to do more with my life, more with the army. i decided to go active-duty, but not only did i go active, i had the ability to change my job. 21w became my secondary job and 11b became my primary job. 11b is infantry. i love being able to call myself an infantryman. i am currently stationed in ft. drum, ny where it is cold as hell. my unit and i are deploying sometime in august 2006. ill be going to iraq for the first time and am looking forward to it. i enjoy playing soccer, it is my favorite sport. i enjoy hanging out with friends and family. i have to have my venti hazelnut late with skim milk and no whip cream from starbucks. that does it for me every time. what more can i say "about me." nothing that i think you really care to read, nothing that would interest you.

I'd like to meet:

id like to meet new people. my god, how terribly cliche was that, but what can i say. im not from new york, but now live in one of the smallest, coldest, and most boring parts in new york. id like to meet new people that i can call friends, both male and female. id obviously like to meet a girl that i can call my girlfriend. i want someone to call my own, i want someone to spoil a little bit. i want to meet a girl with the sme interests as myself, but i would like to try dating someone slightly different from the usual stereotype. id like to meet a girl that doesnt mind me being in the infantry. id like to meet a girl that is up for anything wild/crazy on friday night, but then, maybe not do anything but stay home and watch a movie on saturday night. id like to meet someone here in new york while im here, but if everything goes right, would like to go back to texas with me, or wherever he army sends me. "id like to meet..." a girl. : )

Music:

i love listening to music. i listen to it everyday im here at work, when i can anyway. i like to think that i have a range of different tastes in music. it may not be a wide range, but a range none the less. i have anything from madonna to korn. anything from kings of convenience to metallica. music is a big part of my life. at times, if i cannot listen to music, than i dont know what i would do.
