It's an exciting time for me right now!

About Me

i LIVE my life with PASSION because I REFUSE to LIVE LIKE IM DEAD. It shows in everything that I do because I REFUSE to be MEDIOCRE. KNOWLEDGE is what drives me because I feel there is too much TRUTH to be found out there. IGNORANCE is my enemy. LAUGHTER is a universal medicine that I practice often and share with the people around me. I keep my feet GROUNDED and stray away from the MATERIALISM that lingers in the air that blurs the vision of those who breathe it. METAL and PUNK are my weapons of choice because I RESIST CONFORMITY. I find the BEAUTY in people beneath their skin and not on the surface. I resist the stereotypical so called "COOL" and just try to be MYSELF.

Mr. Fil-Am campaign ad! No stuntmen required!

Wow, I never knew I could C-walk like this haha.

And yes I like to do very dumb stuff. Shopping cart + bush = very good idea.

My Interests

My electric/acoustic guitar, paintball, computers, video games, poetry, reflective thought, and parties when I get the chance to.

I'd like to meet:

Good people. Folks that I can laugh with, chill with, and have a good time with. REAL people.

Music:

Punk rock/Metal/Alternative are my weapons of choice: Atreyu, The Bled, Story of the Year, Thrice, My Chemical Romance, Lost Prophets, Thursday, Coheed and Cambria, Taking Back Sunday, Don't Look Down, Senses Fail, Yellowcard, A Static Lullaby, Finch, Incubus, Rufio, Trapt, Student Rick, Early November, Silverstein, The Agony Scene, Arch Enemy, Darkest Hour, Underoath

Movies:

Laughter is definitely the best medicine: Happy Gilmore, Black Sheep, Billy Madison, The Wedding Singer, Tommy Boy, Dumb and Dumber, Can't Hardly Wait, American Wedding, Anchorman, Elf.

Television:

Late Night with Conan O'Brien, That 70's show, Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Price is Right (when I wake up that early), G4TV

Books:

Gesture of Balance

Heroes:

God because he is the creator of all things, my parents because without them I wouldn't be here, and Rodney Mullen because he's a G.
