I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a musician, writer, and college student from Glenwood, a small town just south of the big ol' city of Chicago. I'm also an avid music listener, and book reader (realistic fiction mostly, but I branch off sometimes). I have been slaving away at a grocery store called Walt's since February of 2006. I go to Prairie State Community College, and I'm currently studying History with hopes of being a teacher.

Please note that I doctored the above test results out of my disdain for the lack of Green Arrow being a possible outcome. Thank you for your time.
