About Me

Im Ryan. Im an art student at Cal State Fullerton. Im majoring in Graphic design. I enjoy pretty much all forms of studio art (painting, drawing, sculpture, etc.). Im grenerally a very happy person. Im new to Orange County, and Im beginning to get used to it. Being a small-town kid, the number of people here intimidates/annoys me, but like any change, this will just take time. I LOVE the ocean. Unfortunatly, Im at school pretty much all day, every day, so I dont get to surf as much as Id like. I love CSUF. The professors and classes that I have are wonderful. I love my girlfriend Wendy very much. I love my family and friends more than anything on Earth. I LOVE LOVE LOVE music. Im trying to take full advantage of the So Cal music venues while I can. So...yeah. If you wanna go to a concert, shout me a holla. Thats me.

My Interests

In life, I have three escapes. Music, art and the ocean. Music is my biggest hobbie. I enjoy both listening to it and playing it. Since I was young, Ive always loved art. I am a graphic design major, so that consumes a lot of my time, but whenever I get the chance, I love to just sit down and draw. I love to paint and sculpt. Since I began college, surfing has also been a huge part of my life. For me, there is nothing better than sitting in the ocean and enjoying some good surf with friends.

I'd like to meet:

Your mom. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

I dont know. I cant think of anything else off the top of my head.

Movies:

I like just about everything. I dont really have a favorite. I really like comedy and horror. Psycological thrillers are good, if they're done well. Sometimes I like to sit down with a tub of ice cream and have myself a good long cry while watching super-sappy chick flicks.

Television:

Not for me. I havent watched TV since Ive been in college. Im not one of those poeple who despises it (I wont ask you to kill yours), I just dont really enjoy watching television. I must admit though, My Name is Earl is pretty damn entertaining.

Books:

I CANT READ!!!! *Hangs head in shame* Nah. I actually really like to read. I have since I was young.

Heroes:

Too many to name. I am lucky to say that I have a lot of people in my life that I look up to. The top few being my parents, grandparents and friends who have been there for me since the beginning. Oh. And Mike Skinner from The Streets, whom is the man.

My Blog

Moving on.....

So, it finally set in when I was surfing yesterday. Over the past three years, I have had no reason to be unhappy. I live in a beautiful place. I have great friends who I love more than I could ever e...
