About Me


"I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's work, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TV's while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.
We know things are bad
worse than bad.
They're crazy.
It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone.' Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot. I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad.
You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, Goddamnit!
My life has VALUE!'
Well let me give you more of an updated about me. You can read the old one below if you like, since this isn't really a change. Just more of an addition. Currently I'm working more towards a happy existance. Some people try to make that hard, but I guess those are the people that shouldn't matter. I drink on occasion but it's pretty far spaced compared to how it was before. I like to hang out with friends. I like having deep conversations. Hard to do with shallow people though. I don't sleep much so chances are if you text me I'll respond. My profile song changes frequently. It's usually either something halarious, something random, and oldie, acoustic chillaxing songs, or something that has significance to a subject at hand. Relationship wise I've come to terms with the women around here. Most are willing to put forth the effort, or are nuts, a whore, way too conservative, are emotionally immature, not willing to give me a chance, too wrapped up in a previous relationship, are too depressed, drink and party way more than I'm comfortable with, are way too comfortable with their guy friends, don't understand the difference between lust, puppy love, and real love, are idiots, loath themeselves and think they aren't worth anyone's time, or someone jaded them before I met them. So having a meaningful relationship in this immediate area proves to be more than difficult. Let's just go with impossible. I'm not the one who caused you problems, so why automatically assume that I will? Anyway, I'm mostly just into chilling out and watching good movies. Playing on the internet or watching the history channel. Roaming around in the middle of the night being wild and having fun. Life's what you make it. So I've decided to make it a game where I have fun. Things that used to concern me no longer do. I just play music or do random things. I'm misunderstood about 99 percent of the time since I'm never really in the same mood. Depending on the individual, I do whatever entertains myself. I don't live with a chip on my shoulder so I'm hoping others will soon learn to do so as well. I don't hold past relationships against a friend because misunderstandings shouldn't prevent getting to the know the person for who they are. I don't hold much against anyone, because chances are, I've been there myself. I try to remain completely neutral and understanding as best as I can. I'd like to think I'm an easy going guy with most people. I'm rather uptight in my own mind though. Do me a favor and don't ask what's on my mind. Usually it's something that's underprocessed and comes out in a way that was completely unintended. I try to help and give to people. But people don't usually do the same, so it becomes tiring. You can think what you want of me though. It doesn't really bother me. Some people know me as a wild and overly hyper loonatic. Others think I'm some huge dick with an ego problem. Some think I'm a mindless manslut that just trys to get with girls. Others think I'm an increidbly deep caring guy. Some people take me for a moron. Others tell me I'm the most intelligent person they've ever met. Some think I'm going nowhere. Others think the skys the limit. You take whatever perception of me that you please. Honestly I'm not a lot of those things. Most of the time that I'm over active is when I'm uncomfortable in a situation. Same thing with when I'm a jerk to people. Some people just deserve it though. The whole thing with girls is simple. I'm human. Of course I search for a relationship of value. But when it seems apparent that isn't going to happen for a good while, and a girl is getting frisky with me. Well. Chances are I'll get frisky right back haha. Mostly I'm just a guy that thinks too much. Does too much and gets little in return. I'm used to being underappreciated by now. Don't concern yourself with my opinion of you. That's probably an under processed topic. I keep an open mind and I like discussing things of value. I don't have any trust issues, but I'll base my trust on how much I assess from your personality. I don't have relationship issues but you can think what you want. Just because I go out and eat with an ex doesn't mean feelings are being brought back up. I don't have an apathetic view of life. I just have one of the general mindset of people. I'm not complex. I just seem to increase complexity of subjects by over analyzing them. I don't take many things at face value. I like to root through them. I don't live in the past because whatever happened I can't change. I don't look to the future because worrying about it will probably frick it up. I just feel like if you worry too much about your future, your present will pass you by, and in the future you'll realize this and wish you lived more in the present, be stuck in the past about it, and again avoid the present. Vicious cycle really. It's not that I don't have any ambition. I just tend to focus more on subjects at hand. I just live life one day at a time. Again. Think what you want. It's not like I'm saying I don't care because of me being angry at the world or whatever. I just don't. That's all. Nothing more. Nothing less. If you can't understand me. Chances are you never will.

DONT ADD ME if you have no about me section (believe it or not girls I'm looking for personality not looks) or you're one of those losers that puts fake pics of celebrities on your page and pretend to be them. It's lame. Please god stop.
Also don't add me if you are under 16,
unless I know you.
I decided to hide my comments because what do you need to see them for? People invading my privacy makes me nervous.
Leave me a comment here.
Hmm... To start, my name is Nick. I was born in Cumberland, live in Cumberland, but I most certainly won't die here. I don't intend to put in here how different or the same I am than everyone else, because I don't care about conformity. If we disagree, fine leave it at that, I'm not wasting my time trying to impose an ideal on you
, because it's not worth my time. If we do agree, great. More people thinking like me means more things go my way. I don't try to look like you, but if I do, I don't care because I dress how I want, not how you do, but if it is the same, maybe we just have really good fashion sense. I don't talk much about beliefs or ideas, because I'm not much for arguements if you couldn't tell. People seem to like to try and see if they can annoy me, and for the most part they are disappointed. Sometimes I seem to think I know everything, but that's why I have opinionated friends to humble me. I'm not an original person as far as I can tell, but if you find me different than I guess that's cool. I'm not out to impress anyone if you couldn't tell, and I don't understand why so many people look to others for recognition. Sometimes I have this funny habit of distorting reality by breaking everything down and overanalyzing it, to a point that it's not the same anymore, and I end up assuming way too much. I'm hypocritical and contradict myself all the time, but you wouldn't understand because on some other level it makes sense to me. Maybe that was a bit of an arrogant sounding statement, but I would rather do what's best for other people to be happy. I try not to assume I know what's best for people, but most of the time I end up having all of my predictions coming true. I'm not an exciting person, but around the right people I tend to get a little wild. I talk way more on the internet than in real life. Well like I said, I'm not cool, nevermind, I'm fucking hot, I'm not arrogant in any respect, and I'll treat you like you deserve to be treated. I call em like I see em. Just don't assume that you know anything about me from this profile though. Please don't try to get argumentative with me about politics. I don't care. Don't bother me about homosexuality or abortion. Either is fine, either way it's not me. I don't condone nor deny either so don't tell me I'm wrong. Again I don't care. I do care about people that I feel I can trust for the most part, and I do stand for a lot of causes, just none you'd care about so why force it. I say live and let live, and Leave me the fuck alone.
I do however enjoy music and playing it in all respects. To clear this up for everyone, I'M NOT HARDCORE, I'M NOT PUNK, AND I'M NOT EMO. I am who I am. Don't label me to a scene please. I would rather just enjoy the music. Get a life and start worrying about that one, instead of mine. I also hang out with tons of people from the local scene, and friends from school.
AND HOLY CRAP, WHO DOESN'T LOVE LUKE?!?!?!?!
Don't know him? Then who the hell are you, and what the hell are you doing here?!?!? Just kidding. Physical description? Well, I'm 6', brown hair, brown eyes. My hair is in between and black/brown now, I'm white, and I don't think I've ever had a tan in my life...
Random facts about me:
I like to try to do my best to be as active as I can in the local scene. Punk, hardcore, emo, ska, whatever it is, if you're good, chances are I'll do everything I can to get you noticed. I get way too hyper sometimes. I'm nice to everyone I talk to. I play bass usually in bands, even though my first love was guitar. I work at Rite Aid. Being single sucks. If there was more sex involved I guess it wouldn't. Hah but I'm looking for a serious relationship. I love older music, especially the song Mrs. Robinson. Fuck you if you don't like it, because I don't care. I listen to an extremely broad spectrum of music. I have a lot of band shirts, but none that are famous :S. I dwell ..ped subjects. I'm somewhat of a bitter person. I type WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY too much. I like hugs, and feeling close to people. I like the fall. I hate the cold. I like mayonaise. Tons of it. I FUCKING HATE PICKLES. The smell, flavor, texture, look, fucking gross. I'm never satisfied until you answer my question completely beyond a doubt. I'm a nervous person. I don't like being crowded. I talk to everyone that talks back. I only have a few friends that are close. I don't believe that love is something that only happens once with one person. I'm too old fashioned about dating. Sometimes I forget where I am/where I'm going/who you are/what your name is. I'd like to think I'm extremely open minded. I don't put anyone down for anything unless it's something they are doing and it's wrong. I graduated from Fort Hill High School. If I end up famous, I'll shoot myself. I rarely ever show my anger. I'd like to think I'm approachable. I think it's funny to make eye contact with people you know and not say hi, just to see if they will (they usually don't...) A lot of the stuff I do is just to screw with people.

My Interests



Attention: If you take my test I ask that if I don't know you, you introduce yourself. There are a few people that have taken this test that I can't figure out who they are :S
My intrests are varied from photograpy, local band music, music writing, playing any instrument (currently I'm loving piano for some reason,) website editing, programming, friends, teaching others how to play their instruments, and skateboarding. I like to hang out with my friends and goto shows. I like being with my friends, and making new friends. I am however comfortable with the friends I have at the moment, so it's not hard to break friends for me either.

I'd like to meet:

------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------
Who I'd like to meet that's famous:
Don't care.

Who I'd like to meet that's dead:
Ghandi would be pretty bad ass, or John Lenon.

What I'm looking for in a friend:
I am friends with anyone OF AGE or close, so long as they aren't an arrogant asshole.

Who I'm looking for to date:
Oh that's a tough one. I don't care about the color of her hair. I don't care if she's the most drop dead gorgeous woman on the planet. I'm not looking for a trophy. I just want her to be kind, open minded, curious, fun, energetic, understanding, supportive, pay attention to me :S, and completely unconcerned with what everyone else thinks of her. I want her to want to be with me. Excited to be around me. Make me feel like I'm actually worth the time. I want her to want to go places with me. I want her to think of me as much as I think of her. When we're apart, I want her to be free, but to wonder what I'm doing, and think of when we'll be together next, because that's what I'll be doing. I'm not asking for her to only think of me. I want her to have her own life, and not feel compelled to be with me all the time. I'm just looking for some commitment. Just for our feelings to be mutual.

YES
Long hair
Deep eyes
Smiles a lot
Laughs a lot too
Around my height(negotiable haha)
CAN SING
Play an instrument
Random
Loves being close

No...
Short hair
Doesn't care about anything
Doesn't do anything
Complains all the time
Isn't happy with her life/self
Never has time for me
Ignores me

My outlook on love basically can be summed up by who else, Jon Felton.

So if you're leaving, in the morning
Tell me now, Tell me now
So I won't be surprized to find you gone.
I am a beggar in all but afffection
I am a true heart who's lost all sense of direction
I won't be surprized to find you gone
I'll understand if you decide to just move on

I'm not actually one for relationships though. I've realized I'm a lot happier as a boyfriend for a day. Not the guy you are actually with. But a guy that treats you like you deserve without strings.
------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------

Music:

Mostly getting into acoustic and experimental music. I like all kinds of music though. Just not too big a fan of country, and most rap is just a joke.

I currently do rhythm guitar (and whatever else is needed but there isn't presently a musician for)for Chris Ullery.

I also have a solo project that I randomly update with new music whenever I have the time to record it.

I played bass in a band called Mislead. I miss playing shows... :(

Movies:

FIGHT CLUB, What Dreams May Come, Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas, 300, Anything with Jay and Slient Bob, Lucky Number Sleven, The Bourne movies, Boondocks Saints, Donnie Darko, Anything with Tony Ja. I watch a lot of movies, becuase my step dad has the largest collection of DVD's known to man, so there are too many to name.

Television:

Well when I do watch tv, I like to watch Ninja Warrior.

Books:

Don't read books on my own, not that I'm illiterate. I have read some but most were boring. The only good book I've recently read has been The 5 people you meet in heaven.

Heroes:

Any and all of my friends, but mostly Jessica Garrison, Corey Mackereth, and Greg Kerr. Oh and most recently these people...
