Matt in real life

give yourself another talk....this time make it sound like someone. --Elliott Smith

About Me

hmm...lets see. I'm really a lot of things...I'm kind of a big deal, you know?The terms that seem to define me the most are: Musician, Singer, Songwriter, Replicator of comedic stylings.I try to look at everything from a positive point of view, but sometimes things are so skewed that even the most positive of people get to thinking negative thoughts. I respect anyone who can go through their lives without saying anything bad about anyone.As much as I dislike some people, and for as much as I don't want to be around them, I don't really hate anyone. It never solves anything.Most people disagree with me on this, but nothing is serious. It all passes, and if you try not to take "it" or yourself too seriously, you'll get through it. make jokes and be a child....growing up is overrated so just don't do it. MyGen Profile Generator
