Hip hop. Gummy bears. Books. My family lineage. Shirin Neshat. One of the most amazing photographers I have ever encountered. Taco Tuesday in Lawrence. My iPod. The pursuit of education. Shoes. Hip hop shows. Motives of girls who take their clothes off with no positive reinforcement in sight. Fish Tacos from Mariscos La Playa in Santa Fe. "MySpace Whores" who think it's cute to take nasty pictures so everyone can see them. Ew. Grow up. Root Beer in a glass bottle. Flat enchiladas, not rolled ones. Fried eggs and red chile.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME WITH THE INTENTION OF HITTING ON ME OR SENDING ME MESSAGES THAT READ LIKE YING YANG TWINS LYRICS (YO MA, WHAT IT BE, HOLLA ATCHA BOI...ETC...)
I'M NOT ON MYSPACE TO MEET BOYS, GIRLS, "MEN", ETC. I HAVE PLENTY OF FRIENDS, SO IF YOU DON'T KNOW ME OR ARE JUST INTERESTED IN TRYING TO SEND "CLEVER" MESSAGES BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU'RE JUST SO ADORABLE THAT I'LL EMAIL YOU BACK WITH A "LET'S HANG OUT" MESSAGE, JUST STOP YOURSELF.
IT'S NOT CUTE, AND YOU WILL ONLY BE WASTING YOUR TIME AS I DON'T RESPOND TO THESE MESSAGES. MORE LIKELY THAN NOT, I'LL EMAIL YOU BACK A RESPONSE YOU WON'T APPRECIATE, AS I'M SURE IT WILL PROBABLY BRUISE YOUR EGO. THANKS!!

I absolutely adore my little brother. He is my hero for so many reasons, and I don't think it's possible for me to love another human quite like I love him. He's always there for me through anything. He defends me and supports everything I do to the fullest. I love you Chris.
