About Me

I'm 20 years old. I love in Hillsboro. I sell knives for a living, or will very soon. I go to PCC, cheap education is the way to go. I live for music,even some country , everything but rap really. I like the beach, even on windy days. I love to barbeque, I'm a total carnivore. Anything I can do with freinds is worth doing. My freinds, the true ones, have kept me alive. Without them I would be a very different person. I owe them almost everything.
