About Me

Hi, my name is Mike. In case you where wondering about the headline, only people with a good sense of music would probably understand what it means. I've been at this MySpace for a little while now, don't consider myself adicted to it just yet. I'm originaly from Mexico though grew up here all my life. I grew up in Pasadena CA (home to the do-dah parade) and now live in Pomona, CA( home to drag racing). Most of my real friends would describe me as the type of person that likes to keep things real and true to life, friends, and people (real people). You know what I mean; people that treat you with openness and sincerity. I like to keep a positive mental attitude and outlook on life, and I make it a habit of surrounding myself with that sort of energy. I'm a hard worker, tolerant, very passionate, and a very relentless person for getting what I want from this life, such as my goals. I also aim to please and keeping other people happy, mainly the ones I care about or hold dear. I love music, whether it be live, on the road, or at the office, al kinds of music. I also like traveling and being in the outdoors every chance I possibly can. I like the feeling of cold wind and the smell of the outdoors, the rough of the outdoors, cold mud, even the smell of flowers, pine trees, and the smell of the ocean breeze. The best feeling is being caught by a thunderstorm in the middle of no-mans land, sort of lost and with a flat on the 4x4. -couldn't ask for more. I like the rough, but good life (you know a scrape on the knee in exchange for devastating view at the horizon). I like sunsets, campfires and a good bottle of vino, with the right girl or group of friends. I love to hunt with my bow and fish when I can. I also like watching a good soccer mach and enjoying a cold one of course. I like cooking, camping, fishing, archery, and being amongst my good friends and family. For the most part, I'm a serious kindaâ€™ guy but never too serious to not see the light of things. ..

My Interests

My MacBook Pro (a real computer), music, my business, cooking, a good bottle of vino tinto, spending time with family, friends, moves, working towards my goals, playing my Larrivee six string, spending time in the outdoors, fishing, camping, traveling, working on the pad, and being brutaly honest and true to others. Oh yeah, I failed to mention my kids, I am absolutely crazy about my little Revolution Soccer team. I pledge full sponsorship and do what I can to keep underprivileged kids involved in sports, give them some encouragement, a little motivation, and hopefully instill a little direction and self-confidence. Life is truly about making a difference and leaving a mark in others, hopefully mine will be a possitive one.

New friends, old friends, perhaps even someone from my previous life.
