INTERESTS: Playing guitar, listening to music, writing short stories and novels, writing songs, watching movies, going to shows and clubs, meeting interesting people, experiencing art in all of its forms, reaching my goals, running, making jokes (usually puns) that 1 in 5 people in the room actually catch or get.
I'D LIKE TO MEET:
Dani Filth. Need I say More? He's a huge inspiration.
I find Bif Naked amazingly attractive. If I had a magic lamp my third wish would probably be to french kiss her. She rocks like nobody's business.
Christina Ricci instantly comes to mind

HEROES: Usually artist but generally those that are willing to think for themselves. Industrious individuals that can see value in doing what they ought to do rather than just what is common practice or easy. Those that can take principles like duty and incorporate them into their daily lives. Those that can see the beauty and message in art even art that appears to be ugly at first glance. Those that are never tied by their situations because they know that they can transform to make their lives better. By example they show others that this is possible. I tend to surround myself with such people.
