About Me

What can I really say? At one time, I could have written a lot here, but now it seems like the days fly by so quickly and everything is fleeting. I have been attending college, and I have found the experience to be very enjoyable yet also quite stressful. I haven't made any friends there yet, just a few pleasant acquaintances with whom I share a few words now and then. I've been writing up some odd stuff in English, and drawing / painting some stuff I didn't even know I was capable of in Art. Also the music theory class is a lot of fun.
In my spare time - which is now quite lacking - I am still known to do a couple things. For one, I am still working as a journalist for Maelstrom, one of the best zines out there. Secondly, I am still working with music. It seems that the easiest part is the recording however, and mixing and mastering is a very difficult chore. I am sitting on a lot of material because I haven't the ability to form it into what it is supposed to be before releasing it. I'm nice, and I am fairly tolerant but only to a certain point. I'm a hard worker, but I don't waste time where it's not appreciated or put to good use.
I am a journalist for Maelstrom underground and independent music ezine. Click the image above to visit the Maelstrom website. It's one of the best on the net as far as professionalism and quality goes. I've also worked for www.UltimateMetal.com in the past, and all of my reviews and interviews can still be found there.
