I am here for Friends

About Me

Well, here I go trying to sound interesting again, why cant I just be the real thing? I am currently stuck; and I mean this in every sense of the word, in the Navy, stuck onboard the USS Essex. Which just so happens to be the worst place I've ever been. However I've been able to travel to many interesting places, meet new people who are just as boring as anyone else you've ever met. You haven't lived until you had to bite an old woman just to keep from being pulled into a brothel; or, until you've visited a country and the whole time you're thinking, "what on Earth is that SMELL????"I just so happen to be a grammar Nazi thanks to my perfectionist complex. I am nothing without a venue for expression. My dream is to be in a band that enjoys just being part of something great, without the stress to try to make it "Big." Ideally, I want to make a living in music, playing, writing, or production and recording. Also I am a very passionate writer, passion however has nothing to do with being good. Music and writing have saved my life on more than one occasion. However neither of those aspects would matter an owl's sound without my faith. That integral part of who I am that I'm constantly struggling to maintain; anyone in the military will tell you how hard it is to stay spiritually alive and make a difference in these inhospitable surroundings. ..

My Interests

I love music and writing, there really isnt anything left for me. My persuit of music has currently been put on hold to make room for my current career in the military. Alas I have three years until I can realistically persue that avenue. For now I can be content that my friend Haus and I are currently collaborating and trying to put music to words. Writing on the other hand can be persued anywhere I can fit a pad, or pen. Whether it be poetry, lyrics, prose or theological introspection, I do it with some mixed success.
