I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


They..ll write this in the book of life above, I know: "capable of such great heights, such great lows"....................................................... .............. . I am from Bayreuth, Frankonia (which hasn..t anything to do with Bavaria!), the home of choice now is Muenster Punkrock City, but my actual band "waiting for steve" resides in Giessen Emo City. Before that I played in bands with funny names like "die heiligen Bombenleger", "naked and bleeding", "fall down marigold". I..m that kind of person you would go nuts about when you..d try to find out what I..m thinking. I can talk much. I can also stay silent over long distances and I do have some friends who love me nevertheless. I love lots of coffee and long breakfasts with good friends or good magazines, sometimes both. I love intense music with honest lyrics (often referred to as emo...), I love airplanes (That..s what emo is all about !). I love taking pictures of not necessarily cool people (and airplanes). I am not growing older , I am coming closer. I love talking in mysteries. I love rhythm and the weird sorts of it. I love generating them. I love things and collect some. I like humble and honest people. I am part of the most weird community in the free world called Jesus Freaks, but I wouldn..t give a fuck for any sort of religion. I love God and you would love him too, if you knew him like I do.
