About Me

Hiya and welcome my name is Derek I'm just your funny crazy happy go lucky 21 year old scorpio living in Missoula Montana. I love music..going downtown for drinks..dancing..the sound of rain..sean kelly's..singing in my car..spending time with friends..going to the movies..go karts..floating the river..the smell of firewood..chinese food..golf..bowling..funny bumper stickers..hacky sack..taking long walks at night downtown just for fun..the people who sit and play their music downtown in Missoula..and anything that makes me happy and keeps me busy. We go on more road trips to shows in other states and cities then I care to say but life has been good to me..ive been blessed with a "good job" great friends..and some of the best people ive ever met since ive come to Missoula. I also have a baby on the way :) I know..totally exciting right?..the baby is going to be a handful but I know with the friends and family I have it will be alright. I currently work at Lowe's..ive been there for 4 months and its fun. I'm very family centered and thank god everyday for them. Other then that im very down to earth, all about peace and I love meeting new people..new friends..and like experiencing new things. I've been to 21 different concerts now..including bands as seen on the Warped Tour.. Seether, Skindred, Faktion, Breaking Benjamin, Papa Roach, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Strata, Chevelle, Nickelback, Crossfade, Dark New Day, Modest Mouse, 3 Days Grace, The Ataris, Trapt, and many more.. :) Anyways, if anyone has any questions..or anything..feel free to add me. Take care ..Peace and Pop Rocks
