About Me

ModMySpace Profile Customizeri'm Jon, i am 22 years old and from thompson connecticut. i've lived here since i was 5 years old, before that i lived in killingly. so lets see, i am a musician, a guitarist... sadly i have not been playing too much lately. for the longest time music was the single most important thing to me... i used to practice everyday and i was hoping to try and turn it into a career. unfortunately i don't think that is a realistic goal anymore.i've had some trouble figuring out what i want to do with my life, as far as school goes.. i've been to 3 different colleges since 2003. not going right now... but i want to go eventually (i just have to decide where, and for what.. but i am thinking that i might give qvcc a shot again).

i've got an apartment in thompson... looking for a roommate. if you're interested let me know, halving my rent will make it a bit easier to pay for school :P

My Interests

i like listening to music and playing music. i also very much enjoy driving and working on cars. lately ive been spending way too much time/money on my car, but it is nearly done and has turned out just how i hoped. i am usually pretty laid back, i like to just hang out .., or watch movies or tv. i like traveling, but i don't get to do it very often. road trips are fun... i would like to go to canada sometime, and lots of other places. so far my trip to colorado with erin was the farthest from home i have ever been

here's a video of my car running a 12.611 1/4 mile on street legal tires... yes its a ford escort, and yes there's a very good chance that its faster than your WRX/mustang/camaro/etc etc etc :).

I'd like to meet:

i would like to meet people who i can trust, people who are worth my time. i would always enjoy meeting fellow musicians... especially now when there seems to be a creative dry spell in this area. also interested in meeting anyone whos got some *real* interest/knowledge related to cars. hit me up on AIM - therieldeal is my screen name.

Music:

i can't list everything. well i could try... here is everything in my music folder that i might actually listen to from time to time...

that took way too long.

Movies:

i like all different kinds of movies.

Television:

i usually don't watch a whole lot of television.

Books:

to be honest its been a long time since i have read a book...

Heroes:

anyone who can start out in a small town like this one, and have a sucessful life... not get stuck in a dead end job like so many people do (and i will not do).
