About Me

One of his students asked Buddha, "Are you the messiah?" "No", answered Buddha. "Then are you a healer?" "No", Buddha replied. "Then are you a teacher?" the student persisted. "No, I am not a teacher." "Then what are you?" asked the student, exasperated. " I am awake ", Buddha replied. buddhist. vegan. edge. texan. marxist (though i only support his economic and political beliefs, not his religious commentary). i think i'm a very kind person. i can be a pretty funny guy when i'm comfortable with the people around me. strangers make me nervous. i listen to all kinds of music, but im in a hardcore band, zao/every time i die-ish. i work for an insurance company. its depressing at times but the income is nice. i know lots of strange things, and my girlfriend sometimes calls me "discovery channel" haha. i like basketball way more than any 'core kid should admit to. i've had something like 15 broken bones including a completely shattered left foot. i have a beautiful girlfriend. we just had our two year anniversary yesterday (8/6). she cooks delicious vegan food for me even though she's an omnivore 3. im out of things to say for now. im gonna go now. really. ok. bye.
