"The Unholy Trinity"
My Journal

† Everyone wears a MASK , mine comes off when my MAKE-UP goes on. †
I love photography, though I do not capture the world around me, I create my own world and then document it.
I'm not here to be pretty, I'm not about that. I'm here to express myself.
When I am dead and gone, if you still remember me and are not doing anything to stretch the limits, to open people's minds, or doing anything revolutionary, then just forget me, for I have not met my purpose.
I like it when people steal my ideas, mimic my photos, and plagiarize my words, because it means that they believe I have done so well that they cannot do any better. I can always make more; they can only copy.
I love it when people talk behind my back, when I am hacked, when people make up lies, when I am called ugly, told I am hated, and that I am a fag. I love it because it means I have made such an impact, left such an impression, that they cannot get me out of their mind. They become obsessed, and spend their time and energy to try to bring me down, but never are successful.
I'm a walking, talking artwork,
take a picture before I wash it away.
I love girls with heavy eye make-up and tight outfits, who can drink like fish and cuss like sailors.
I love boys with heavy eye make-up and tight outfits, who can drink like fish and cuss like sailors.
Just because I am gay, it does not make me weak, a wuss, or insecure. I may not be the captain for football or in the military any longer, yet I am still just as strong, confident, and empowered.
People who think artists are ignorant - or that they can only create, that they do not comprehend complex ideas and subjects - are the ignorant ones. Artists are some of the most intelligent and open-minded people I have ever met in my life.
I am eclectic: I listen to ALL types of music; I wear ALL styles of clothes, I take inspiration from ALL walks of life.
Your perfection lies within your imperfections.
I'm upset with humanity because apparently the genes to create an intelligent, motivated, caring, interesting, and attractive person does not exist. I don't need a genius, I don't need a model, I don't need the next Donald Trump, I just need a well-rounded man with a future other than drunken nights and random hookups.
I'm very sarcastic. Don't take anything too seriously.
I have no problem with the industry's obsession with the emaciated look. Even with the influence of the media and peer pressure, each individual has the ability to make the correct decision for them self. You have to remember that not everyone has that body type, most that petite are naturally that size. So be happy with your body - you can work it at any size.
I'm a mess...
and I like it that way.
I appreciate all forms of body modification: plastic surgery, tattoos, piercings, scarring, hair dye, and tribal practices that have become popular in Western culture. They are all forms of expression, not reasons to avoid befriending someone.
I would DIE without my friends.
I was appointed to the three most exclusive, most challenging, and most prestigious institutions in our nation AND I turned them down. I know who I am, I know what I want to be, and I will not be misled.
I don't need Myspace to feel loved or important; it's a website, not life. I find it ridiculous that people alter who they are to become "popular". Express yourself, don't regress yourself.
If I don't know a word, I look it up. If I don't know how to spell something, I check. If I do not have information, citations, and logical rationale to back up my claims, I do not make them. The world would be a lot more sane if everyone did the same.
A person's eyes are a window into their soul...
...what do you see in mine?
My eyes change their shade of blue depending on my mood.
I have a very morbid sense of humor, and I think gruesome things can be hilarious or attractive.I have a heart of stone. Nothing can make me cry... at least not in public.
I'm a make out whore, I don't want to take your boyfriends and girlfriends, just borrow them for a short while.
I am apathetic to drama, I find it really immature.
Your body is a masterpiece,
show it to the world.
People who are older do not automatically deserve respect; everyone should have to earn it.
I don't beat around the bush. I'm blunt and upfront.
I am not standoffish as people assume; you can easily approach me and I'd gladly chatter your ear off.
I am without a religion, yet I am not atheist. I have no faith, yet I am not without theology, virtues, or morality. I do not claim to know the truth regarding the afterlife, yet that does not stop me from trying to deduce what the answer is.
I go into my own world a lot. Sometimes I need to be awoken from it.
On a secretarial note, I get hundreds of messages, comments, friend requests, and event invites every day. If you sent me one of the aforementioned then please do not expect a response. I am glad that I've received them, and they all do get read, but I do not have the time to send everyone a reply. I do my best, please don't take it personally, I'm just being practical.
I try to be articulate, and appreciate others who take the time to do the same.
I always have something to complain about - there is A LOT that needs to be changed in the world today.
You're ruining my life. Please leave.
I don't talk about people behind their backs; I'm mature enough to approach you with my problems.
I like the idea of karma, just not for myself. I have done some things in the past that were not so benevolent, however I have learned from them.
My eyes tend to get green a little too easily; I really need to get that checked out.
I have a very sensitive neck and ears. Kiss them and I belong to you.
Is anyone else getting sick of all the "I" statements? I'm even getting annoyed typing all of them. However that is the point of an about me, correct?
You will rarely find me at "the water cooler" of clubs or other gatherings because of the stereotypical drama - the who's with who, if you will. I don't feel like going through another round of middle school every time I go out, I'd rather do things that are productive.
Along with that note, I hate the stereotype that all LGBTQ men and women are full of drama, only a few ruin it for all of us. I hate the stereotype that African Americans are lazy, that Mexican Americans are dirty, that Asian Americans are just human calculators, etc. I just hate stereotypes all together.
Just because you paint your nails black, get some piercings, put on a band tee, and do something "crazy" with your hair, it does not make you an individual. The original grunge, alternative, gothic, etc. (Yes, I'm lumping them all together) looks were about individuality and expressing yourself. Today even that concept has been commercialized by Hot Topic and the like. You are not a non-conformist when you conform to a mass produced style, no matter what it is supposed to represent.
I don't really hold grudges that long, but if you were being an ass, I'll make you uncomfortable at least for a little while.
Beauty isn't just skin deep,
inner is much more attractive than outer.
I have problems with authority, major problems. I have become jaded at an early age and do not trust that our world's leaders (political, social, corporate, and religious) always have the best intentions. Everyone is biased in some fashion.
I think all drugs should be legal. What is the difference between those that are prohibited and those allowed (e.g. alcohol) other than the degree of risk? How can someone properly decide what to legalize based upon the mere degree of risk? It is a very vauge and ambiguous matter to make legislation upon. Once again I may choose to not do something, but I still believe you have the right to do it.
Going along with that subject, I believe that seatbelt laws and other regulations that deal with health are ridiculous (excluding those that affect people other than the individual). It's a person's own judgment to make the correct decisions for them self.
From "Birthday for a Ghost" photoshoot with Vaughn Michael
I am a horrible driver. I've already totaled two cars and had numerous crashes... the law requires me to wear a seatbelt, yes, but I would have made the decision to wear it anyway.
I am an open book. Ask me anything, I'll give you the answer.
I get bored easily. I need to live in a city; the suburbs do not provide enough entertainment.
You know that little guy in that back of your head that tells you when things are dangerous? I think he quit on me.
I hate the word tolerate. I don't want people to just pretend like things are okay when they are blowing up inside. Acceptance through education is key.
Does anyone mature exist anymore? Anywhere? I didn't think so.
I don't care who your parents are, how much money you have, who you have slept with, what your connections are, or how extensive your resume is. If you do not impress me on a personal level, then no, I do not want to work with you, date you, or otherwise be your friend.
I am addicted to expressive color.
The more vibrant, the better.
People do not read enough. The only people I hate are those who make assumptions without doing some thinking and research first.
If you're going to message me then make it worthwhile, be original and actually put thought into what you say. I cannot tell you how many messages that I get saying the same things repeatedly. So please read the FAQs before sending one my way.
Weak and lazy people can make me angry. Those who bitch, complain, and cry about their life do not earn my sympathy. There is ALWAYS something you can do to improve your situation; you just may not like doing it. Hell, people overcome cancer, come to terms with paralysis, and get past deaths of loved ones daily. I am sure you can get over your problems too.
I really don't care if I offend people, I'm trying to broaden people's vision; I can't do that conservatively.
All I want is to live, to love, and to learn.
