About Me

..
..i'm probably one of the most easy going, laid back people you're ever likely to meet. i get along with just about anyone, just so long as they dont cause drama or pick fights. i love to stay active, whether its sports or just going out and doing something spontaneous. i prefer the outdoors over staying inside, especially when the weather is nice. my biggest interests as of now are probably art, music, surfing, anything having to do with the beach, and of course, sports. i tend to spend my saturdays watching college football, love eating good food and a big fan of good beer. lately i've been addicted to gatorade also. i tend to make friends wherever i may be. hawaiian pizza is the way to go. my favorite sports teams are the boston redsox, new england patriots, and the virginia tech hokies. besides that, if you want to learn more about myself, dont hesitate to ask.

My Interests

lately, its been everything lacrosse, eat and sleep. i surf every single chance i get, my favorite thing to do in the world. take lots of photographs and play guitar when i'm hanging around the house, just a little out of practice.

I'd like to meet:

i'm very open-minded and definitely not hard to get along with... if you know how to just chill and have a good time, then i'm all about it... also being able to smile and make people laugh.. always a plus... i like to surround myself with happy, positive people.some of my heros i'd like to meet are: david ortiz (aka. big papi), manny ramirez, rob machado, kelly slater, taj burrow, mick fanning. basically any pro surfer i admire, to sum it up. frank beamer would also be a great one. as far as artists go, i've love to meet: dave kinsey, shephard fairey, andy howell, and jackson pollock. theres a good amount of celebrities i'd like to meet, everyone has a list, just cant think of them at the time.
