It's a great day to be Carlos.

About Me

I'm a cool guy with big plans in life. Look around if you want, you might get a sense of who I am. Or, at least part of it, because a person can't be described by a couple of words on a page, or what music they listen to.

I go to San Diego State University and will soon graduate!

Life is about the people you surround yourself with; the people whose life you change, even if it's in a very minute way.

The one thing that has been constant in my life is me changing myself, not changing for the sake of anyone but myself.

To sum it up, I am who I choose to be.

Good friends, good family, good times. That's what life is about.


"Always try to see the good in people, if you can't find any, then you at least gave them a chance."
