Jake

We can all agree that I'm crazy enough to do it..

About Me

I'm 24 years-old and I have no concrete plans for the next few years of my life. I'm okay with that. I go to film school to hopefully be a film maker. I might as well tell people I'm going to space man school. But hey why not give it a shot. Life is either long or short and I believe that you got to make decisions based on something other than money or security.I reccently read this in Ecclesiastes 11:10 So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless.The chapter 11 from the book of Ecclesiastes where this is from is about youth and living in it. To make sure that you enjoy it while it last but keep your heart on God. I like to think that this may be part of the key to life....at least for now.Also I'm a huge nerd that is really into comics and movies...whick makes it even more impressive that the blonde down in my friends section figured she would take a chance on me.
