Surfing and anything that invloves me being at the beach. Anything music related especially going to shows and writing songs. Reading, watching movies, going out with my friends for spontaneous outings, politics especially judicial politics, running, cooking yummy food(!!!) and lots of other things..the rest you'll just have to ask.
normal, non stupid people that are not socially inept or bitches. i'd also like to meet someone that could secretly make me win the lotto. if you are that person, inquire within.
While I do listen to a lot of Emo, Indie and Rock music, i like to listen to old stuff as well. However, I do love the old stuff. I love music with good lyrics and an exceptional sound. To each their own i guess. I know my music taste is kinda emo, but most of it is the real stuff (Mineral, Moss Icon...). I like Inidie music as long as it doesnt get too trendy.
