About Me

i work hard and i play even harder. i'm free spirited and open minded. i only kick it with real ass mofo's, "i deal with the real, so if it's artificial: let it be!" other than that you can find me playing softball, watching the A's (LET'S GO OAKLAND!!!), camping, or taking shots with my friends. sometimes you'll find me buried in a book. and occasionally I even get a little of that stuff...what's it called again? oh yeah - SLEEP. but that's a very rare occasion...i also rarely respond to myspace comments, so don't be offended!

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !

I am 55% Hippie.
.. I am not a child of the 60’s but my heart is true to the cause, man. I realize that being a hippie is not just bell bottoms and tie-dye. It is also about the drugs and smelling bad, too! Take the

What Color Is Your Aura?

Your Power Color Is Blue

Relationships and feelngs are the most important things to you. You are empathetic and accepting - and good at avoiding conflict. If someone close to you is in pain, it makes you hurt as well. You try to heal the ones you love with your kind and open heart.
What's Your Power Color? Take This Quiz :-)
Find the Love of Your Life (and More Love Quizzes) at Your New Romance.
Your element is Light. Your heart is pure and
shining with love. You believe in the goodness
of those around you and give almost everyone a
smile. You are not the kind to hide your
happiness and tend to smile all day long, both
in and out. But when sadness hits you, you
become very devastated and may be upset for
quite some time. What you need in your life is
friends, friends who will love you
unconditionally, like you love them. But you
have a naive nature and don't always notice
when someone is trying to hurt you. Some would
say you are oblivious to mean people, which
makes you an easy target. However, your true
friends will probably be there for you and save
you. In school you are either the popular one
or the little weird one. It all depends if
"the higher people" find your caring
side irritating or not. Nevertheless, you have
a bubbly personality and are social. Big partys
may not be your thing since you want bonding
time with your friends, so slumber-partys fit
you more. You like the happy things in life and
like everyone else to be as happy as you are.
