About Me

I found this layout design on PureLayouts.com - check out their MySpace Layouts .

"I opened my eyes and looked up at the rain/ and it dripped in my head and poured into my brain/ so pardon the wild crazy thing I just said / I just aint the same/ since there’s rain in my head/ I walk kind of careful/ I turn around slow/ I can’t run or jump cuz I might over flow/ and I all that I hear/ as I lie in my bed/ is the slishity slash/ of rain in my head" - 'rain'...shel silversteincheck out some of my photos from japan and costa rica: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kawasakileah/sets/
