About Me

Elementality no.75 Those who abandon thier dreams discourage those who don't. I hail from Newburgh, NY. There are good times to be had by the hudson. I want to make films for a living. I will be attending Brooklyn College in the fall of 2008 in THE greatest city in the world, New York. I want to experience life and what it has to offer. Traveling is something I would like to do more of post graduation. Other cultures fascinate me. I have awesome friends who never cease to amaze me. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories. Everyone has one or two. I met a guy on the subway who told me that jesus owes him five bucks. I want to live as if a movie will be made about my life.I love learning. Whether it be wacky trivia or relevant knowledge. I learned that things are not always what they seem and people are not always who pretend to be.I never want become complacent and so "comfortable" in my life that things pass by. It's time for me to move and let life catch up. "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."~Ferris Bueller ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'd like to meet:

"Growing up, I was a daydreamer. For so long I lived in a world of my own imagination, and to some extent I still do. But I've always believed in following my dreams with action and creating new dreams along the way. That's how dreams become reality. If you can imagine it and you're willing to go out and put in the time, anything is possible."
