About Me

I'm hardly ever on here anymore since Facebook and AIM tend to be quicker ways of getting in contact with people, but I check in every once in a while.

I'm just about to graduate with a Bachelor's in graphic design. I have no idea what I want to do with it, though.

I grew up on hardcore music like Agnostic Front and Warzone, and it's still pounding in my heart, but my musical tastes have since expanded to include lots of wierd stuff like Kansas, Regina Spektor and Old Crow Medicine Show.

I'm a Christian and I'm Straight Edge, but those labels are pretty empty since people's preconceptions are not reflective of what they mean to me.

I love reading and learning. I find archaeology, anthropology, biology, astrophysics, philosophy, comparative religion, and race/gender studies all wicked interesting.

Don't know what else to tell ya.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A cool guy with long hair, as it were.

The Sweet Pink Rules of Feminism

This is a really good article written by a woman on feministing.org. I don't know if she's really a feminist or if that's just part of the sarcasm, but she brings up good points. Enjoy - Chr...

Hardcore Tabs!

There's little to no tablature out there for Hardcore bands so I've been submitting tabs to Ultimate-Guitar.com. All my tabs are done by ear and I scrutinize every little detail of the songs to ensure...

Anamnesis
