What I really wanna do is just dance with you.

About Me

Something witty. Something clever. Ah, forget it.My life at the moment consists of two main things - school and work. I delve into infatuations and sometimes don't surface from them for a while.I love horror movies and blowing zombies' heads off but real violence really bothers me. I have a hard side partnered up with an equally soft side that share the reins on my emotions.I love to read. Nothing beats laying in bed before I go to sleep and reading a great book. I am one of the few people I know who still has that passion and I find that sad. I equally love to watch movies. I can go from singing along with The Little Mermaid to being morbidly fascinated with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974, mind you).I hate doing what I'm told. If a friend points out a great shirt at the mall I won't even notice it until I've had time to browse through the entire store, then come back to the same shirt and say, "Oh, look at that cool shirt."I love my friends a lot. They are who I have now that I'm a big boy. The future's so bright I gotta...shield my eyes because I hate wearing sunglasses.
