I'm Brenton...Sometimes

"You are the best. You are the worst. You are average. Your love is a part of you. You try to give it away because you cannot bear its radiance, but you cannot separate it from yourself. To understand your fellow humans, you must understand why you give them your love. You must realize that hate is but a crime-ridden subdivision of love. You must reclaim what you never lost. You must take leave of
your sanity, and yet be fully responsible for your actions." -Gnarls Barkley, in a letter to the legendary rock critic Lester Bangs

If you see me you may have no idea where I am.

My Interests

One of the Cabins I built

I'd like to meet:

I met her once, and only once. The person who doesn't know that she changed who I wanted to be. I found her again hiding in the records of our past. When she came to our present we kissed, once and only once. Then I thought I saw her at a show. I wanted to meet this look alike so bad that it happened by random chance. Only this book was on fire burning from the inside and the cover was last to be scorched. One day maybe she'll look for me....

I'd like to meet people who understand the beauty of the world around them. People who understand that they are not the only people who matter on this planet; and people who know that a personâ€™s worth is not measured by how far into debt they can go to by shiny jewelry, rims and fancy cloths.

Charlie Kaufman; Michel Gondry; Jean-Pierre Jeunet
I admire these men for their pure creativity in not only the stories they tell, but how they choose to tell them.

..2Audrey Tautou; Bjork; Jenny Lewis; Natalie Portman
These are the women who I have silly school girl crushes on. Either based on characters they've played or their voices, or how they look at life.

Music:

I like music with a soul

Movies:

I like fairy tail movies, that touch on real emotions.

Books:

I don't really read, and I envy those who do.

Heroes:

Anyone with a passion they drop everyhting and go for.

California

This summer I have been working in California to pay for school. Being out here is leaving me with more and more of a bad taste in my mouth about people. I believe that people for the most part are go...

Sairway to Heaven or Hell?

Last night I got into an argument with my dad about weather or not Led Zeppelin meant to put backwards lyrics into stairway to heaven. I'm convinced that they did. Here is a video clip of the song fo...

Calling her bluff with a pair of twos

naked in a storm

When you're wearing the right amount of clothing for the temperature you're in, you tend to not notice how many layers you have on, or don't have on. You feel comfortable and whole. When you have far ...
