About Me

NOVEMBER 4TH CALIFORNIA VOTE NO ON PROP 8
My name is Jeremy, I am 22 years old, and I'm never growing out of late nights, immature pranks, and train rushing. I work as a computer management consultant and attend school full time studying to become a Dr. of Clinical Psychology. I love talking, especially about politics, history, and philosophy. I'm deeply into music and supporting the underground in Fresno, I book thrash/hardcore/punk shows. Give me a day off from useless work and worthwhile school; you'll find me on four wheels, miles away.

Music is my life, struggle, and expression, it means so much to me, not just the idea of it, but what it has fueled in the underground and it's impact. I currently sing in LOCKED OUT .
My struggle is my life and spirit. I feel many people don't have a voice in this world and I try to help them get that voice. I also live life trying to improve myself/community/world, sustaining from the physical and investing in the spiritual; forging against pride and hate, to better myself. Through all of this, efforts will never go without notice.
If you would like to know more about me or just would like to talk to someone give me a hola on AIM/AOL - S0ClALIST
Look, it cannot be seen - it is beyond form. Listen, it cannot be heard - it is beyond sound. Grasp, it cannot be held - it is intangible. These three are indefinable, they are one. From above it is not bright; From below it is not dark: Unbroken thread beyond description. It returns to nothingness. Form of the formless, Image of the imageless, It is called indefinable and beyond imagination.Stand before it - there is no beginning. Follow it and there is no end. Stay with the Tao, Move with the present. - Tao Te Ching
..

My Interests

I choose to be free from smoking, drinking and promiscuous sex, for my own beliefs, convictions, religious, and political reasons. I take interest in Socialism/Communism & politics/recent events. I really enjoy traveling. I'm really open minded and pretty accepting as long as people aren't trying to feed me rubish or trying to kiss a$$. I collect vinyl because I believe it is the best way listen to music. I am a mac geek. I repair/build/upgrade computers. I practice the Tao; it influences my religious and philosophic outlook on life. You can read more into it here . I enjoy hanging out and just having good clean fun.

my.true.heros.

Ray Barbieri "raybeez" of warzone. November 27, 1961 - September 11, 1997 for being apart of the grass roots of such a movement as hardcore music, writting some of the most influential music, and being apart of a revolution all of it's own. ray cappo for being at the forefront of the movement for positive thinking and physical/spiritual liberation. his continued support of hardcore music. his generous desires for a better world and words of wisdom will always be an inspirtion in my life.dave trenga for over 15 years he has made some of the most heartfelt, intelligent, and informative music. with his lyrics about social/political affairs for change he is truely an inspiration to myself and to any with a heart for something better. on top of being a really friendly and kind person, his amazing artistic style of creating an outlet for knownledge through his music will forever impact me.

I owe my life to two special people, my mom and grandma. I was raised by a psycho nut who put me through stuff that made me appreciate a lot and I love her to deth for all she has done and had sacrificed for me. My granny was a perverted, cursing, sometimes mean old lady who was always there for me and taught me a bunch, I owe her so much, I love her, may she rest in peace <3.
