About Me

im michael. i am samoan and irish (even though people think im every other race on planet earth). i keep myself under control in almost any situation. people tend to gravitate to me because i either remind them of someone they know or ..... well, that’s usually the case. i come off as an arrogant ass sometimes due to my timid nature (i've been working on this very hard since i have become a member of the 21+ club). im a total music freak and would describe my persona with musical genres more often than adjectives. im pretty focused on my life, i have a good sense on where i want my life to go- it's just a matter of time and patience before i get there. i am a very loyal friend and choose whom i divulge my skeletons to very carefully. i have insecurities just like anyone else and i usually use some witty, or more often, sarcastic remark to cope with them. i love to make people smile and have a good time. i am one of those people that love to be in the background doing my own thing. i am a very random person, i tell random stories at odd times and later realize how weird i am. i walk incredibly slow and everyone dispises that about me (i don’t like to rush when i don’t have too). many aspects of life intrigue me- politics, food, traveling, music, art, fashion, sports all spark some degree of fascination with me. i tend to ramble (and mumble) on so, you get the general idea "about me" hollar.

My Interests

my interests consist of the things i do on a daily basis. school, work, volleyball, hanging out with friends, the beach, eating at new places in sb, walking slow, roadtrips, discovering new music, clearing the dance floor with my smooth moves LOL, and basically having the time of my life. and not necessarily in that order.
