Go me!

About Me

I'm Joe(y). I'm an English major. I like to write, but find it hard to make myself (if that makes any sense). I go to Golden West College and plan to earn my AA by the end of the year and transfer to Long Beach State. I love Southern California, I've experienced other states in the U.S. and it's the best area in the whole country. Trust me. I went to a college in Illinois for 2 quarters. It was pretty lame. And cold...so very cold...
I love life right now. It's fun, complex, and sometimes confusing as hell, but at least the people in it are great. My family and friends keep me going. Not to mention my beautiful girlfriend, Britt. I love her a great deal. She's awesome.
That's me.
