Okay, so it's time for some major RE-vamping of this site! First and foremost, my name is Rick. And I am probably one of the most open, opinionated, positive, energetic, stubborn, crazy, "dramatic" (inside joke), funny, and just in general LIVELY people you will ever meet. I love to joke around and have fun. On the other hand, if I'm serious and adamantly care about something, I will NOT, and NEVER, will let it go. I'm disgustingly picky about some things and completely nonchalant to others. (I think I know what that means... maybe lol). I enjoy pina coladas and long walks on the beach. ..... ..... ....Actually, that's bullshit, I just thought it was funny.
Okay, now for some actual information about me. I'm a drummer first and foremost in life. I finally have a new band that finally has all the pieces together, it's the #1 of my top friends, so you should REALLY check it out. As soon as we have a name and some lyrics, expect world domination to begin rather quickly. It's easily the most talented band I've ever had the pleasure of being a part of, and finally pushes me to be the best drummer I'm really and fully capable of. I've also earned a degree in Radio/TV production, a degree that with my new job I'm finally thinking might have something to do with my career at some point. Other than playing drums, my musical talents also include singing, guitar, bass (which it was again proven I'm gettin' rather good at when Andy had JUST finished recording something and I was already playing bass lines to it haha), and some piano, as well as now songwriting/composing/arranging. On top of all this, I recently changed jobs to working in drums at Guitar Center. Yes, I'm in the process of becoming a ridiculous corporate whore for them, but whatever, it's the BIGGEST distributor instruments. PERIOD. And they have a tendency of helping out those who help them... hells yeah I want to get in on that action haha.
As for other things, I'm pretty good at art in general, writing (as has been proven in my new position as lyric writer as well haha) I'm also very good at spending money I don't have, as is proven by the drum collection I've obtained that by all rights no recent college grad should be able to have lol. I'm also rather random. But I would have hoped that you picked up on that already....
So comes the newest part to this. Which is that after a lot of soul searching, I've decided I'm a man on a mission. This has come about because through my life I've seen person after person come and go, and realized for a large part a lot of people are generally afraid. Why? Because of the world we live. People are afraid to just go for what they want, afraid to dream big, afraid to actually give themselves the credit due to them, afraid to just be themselves. Everyone's so wrapped up in just trying to get by anymore that they don't even remember how to stand up for what they believe in, or even have enough hope to believe in anything. I'm tired of this. It's wrong. When people who are ridiculously talented are afraid to think they're worth anything and doubt they can make anything of life, that's shit. Of course I can't change the world, but I can start with myself. In that regard, and because I'm guilty of all this myself, I'm no longer going to be afraid. I'm going to show the world what it's like to have dreams and think you can become more than what you are. I have a lot going for me now that I think can finally put me to where I want to go, and I'm following through with everything I am. I hope to at least be an example to those who think they COULD have a lot, but are afraid to get their hopes up due to the jadedness this world gives us all. I just shed my shades of jade, and that's my mission: to show that hope is not dead in the world; don't be afraid to have an opinion, don't be afraid to say what you think is right when others are blatantly telling you you're wrong, because sometimes you have to swim upstream and not go with the flow to avoid falling off the waterfall that stream is taking everything in it's path to.
so, if you haven't really figured me out for the most part from all the above information at this point... you're retarded lol. It's okay tho, the world loves stupid people ;) anyways that's all I've got, do something better with your time anyways other than reading this lol... and oh yeah, snooch to tha nooch ;-) (if you don't know where that's from you're getting smacked next time I see you lol)
http://weblog.xanga.com/deafdrummer281 that's my old blog I found again... it actually has a lot of good stuff, I really like some of the things I wrote. If you wanna get to know me better, check that out, you'll learn a lot about me I think. lataz.

You were killed during a mission or while trying to
protect someone and you died with honor. you
never regretted what you did and you are a very
brave and strong individual. You know what is
right and you are willing to stand up for it.
Even if it means death.
How did you die in your past life? (for everyone)

Your element is Fire. Like fire, you have a hot
temper and you can be warm and loving as well
and angry and wild. It all really comes down to
what you are feeling. You have a lot of close
friends who you are very protective over, and
with your temper probably some enemies too. You
are not Miss/Mr Popular in school since you are
your own person and don't want to be forced
into behaving this or that way. You are the
untamed wild horse, the kind that everyone
wants to catch. But you don't want to be tied
down for the moment and just keep going with
your little crushes. Your will is strong and if
you set your mind to do something, you will
most likely succeed. But beware, your friends
may not always accept your mood-swinging
behaviour. Even if you don't mean to be mean,
they can still feel hurt. You just need to
start thinking some things through before you
do them, and not always jump in with so much
courage. One day you may be hurt because of
that, but then again, your element isn't fire
if you start to analyse situations before you
act. After all, your nature is to shoot first
and ask the questions later. Rate and message!
