Well, my name is Jaime Stephens. I grew up here in the OC, uh.. I play music, pretty much any instrument I can get my filthy hands on, which is not many because I got no money, uh... I...uh...I can't think of anything clever to ad-lib here, I had a liver transplant in May of '05, I am deeply into my relationship with God, but don't expect a bunch of stuck-up, holier-than-thou garbage, because I am the king of sinners and have been humbled by some of the ridiculous choices I have made in my lifetime. In fact, some of my favorite guys musically are not the Christian bands, but rather some of myspace friend, guys like Mike Ness, Johnny Cash, Dave Navarro, and Scott Weiland specifically because they are imperfect guys who do messed up things sometimes. I uh...I enjoy stuff. I believe that our lives are our art and I'm just trying to paint my masterpiece. Like anybody else, I fail at that on a regular basis, but I don't get real discouraged. Life is beautiful, and even the bad days are gifts from God, because then when the good days come back, you love them and appreciate them all that much more. I believe in Carpe Diem, because I have come close to death and conquered so many fears recently, and I understand that you can't ever wait to make your life what you want it to be. This is your art, so go paint your masterpiece. Make your life extraordinary.I am currently on my way to luthiery (guitar building)school as well as ASU. Its been kind of hard for me the last couple of years, but I have finally got a handle on things and hopefuly this next phase of my life will be one of maturation and growth. I believe that if you spend your life in the comfort zone, all you are is comfortable. With that in mind (and after watching Murderball a couple of times), i'm on a mission to push myself to the absolute edge of what I'm capable, to see what I'm really made of. I want to start my own guitar company, and so I am at Roberto-Venn, which is an amazing school. I'll be going to business school at ASU in the fall. Who knows, maybe I'll get an MBA even. I am very passionate about life and people, perhaps to a fault. Anything else you wanna know just ask. :bI love music, and movies and sports. My teams are the Dodgers, first and foremost, the Lakers, Celtics (talk about your contradictions), the LA Kings, Boston Bruins, Oakland Raiders (places bag over head), and the Cleveland Browns (again with the bag), Newcastle United Football Club, and of course now, the Arizona State Sun Devils.
