About Me

Im not who you think i am. In particurally if its been over 5 years since weve seen each other. I was at one time an individual with extremley self serving motivations and destructive tendencies. And while i have learned to accept and embrace that at the same time i have learned to manage said qaulities so as not to bring chaos to the lives of those i encounter or value! Dont get me wrong i still posses a "pressure cooker" outlook on situational solution (i work much better under pressure or saturated in enviromental confusion). Eh i guess thats just were i come from. I have recently entered a "rennasaince" phase in my life. That is to say i lost touch with myself for quite sometime and ive just within the last couple of years begun to get back to who i am and what i was intended to be. I value myself and treat myself with respect these days. As far as life in comparison to a popularity contest....ummmm....FUCK THE CROWD AND THERE APATHY!! If you wanna be a sheep join the flock, theres always a sheperd of ill will lookin to recruit the indecisive and weak, as for me....I follow my heart. If i see an injustice i dont "try" to do something about it i "do" something about it! In this world you have to stand for something or youll fall for anything!textarea {background-color:..top:0px"
