About Me

Click here to get this skin for your profile!What to say? I dunno how you can wrap up a life and put it in words. There are thoughts, emotions, situations, that are simply too powerful to quantify in script.That could be why I have so long been attracted to music. Music speaks honestly. First I heard it from other people, and now I am traveling at a breakneck speed to find a voice of my own. I love it. I play guitar. My guitar doesn't have a name, because my guitar is not important in that sense. The music isn't there to serve the guitar, but the opposite. In the same vein, the song is not there to serve my guitar's music, but my music is there to support the song. And maybe even speak to someone.I'm a senior. Yeah, I have plans. Big plans. Enormous, seemingly impossible plans. Going to UNC next year. I'd like to see an end to poverty.... and end to war... global environmental reform. I have a gift as a communicator of sorts, and I know God will use me as he sees fit. Grad school or no Grad school.So now you know a bit about me. Well, not exactly. You know a bit about how I feel. This blurb is a secondary source. I guess it's up to you to connect the dots and make me fit in whatever box you have handy.Peace and towels,Jake
