About

I try to make my life go the way I want it to go, but that doesn't always work out. I want to make myself a professional musician someday. I think its a possibility, but that will take much more time and effort on my part than what I'm putting in now. If I really made my life go the way I wanted, I probably wouldn't be in school right now, because I don't thrive in the type of environment I'm in and in turn, I do poorly. Couple that with lack of focus and motivational skills, and there really isn't much of a reason for me to be there. But I still am, because if I can't make a career out of music, I know I have to do something else, and if I don't finish high school, then I won't have any opportunities for my future. I don't put much trust in people anymore, because I've realized that no one can be honest with you 100% of the time, even if it's for your own good. I'd love to go out and see different places. Until I can drive, however, that probably won't happen too much, and I'll probably just sit at the computer for hours on end every single day. I hate chaos and crisis situations because I tend to crack under pressure, and make really poor decisions. Any other time, I think I make good choices and I believe that I'm fairly rational. I'm interested in getting tattoos, maybe for my seventeenth birthday if one of my parents will take me, even though I don't know exactly what I want yet. I like looking at the sky at night, its very calming to me. I might not have as many values as most people do, but the ones I do have I believe in fully. I am not a religious person. I believe in inner-strength and having the ability to overcome whatever happens in life without having a system of guidelines to follow. I like having a beard. Its alot easier to just keep facial hair than to shave it all the time. I enjoy watching horror movies, they give a great rush of adrenaline, and even if they are repetative, they never get old. I am one of the pickiest eaters in the world. I practically live off of carbohydrates, water, and occasional vegetables. I don't eat meat, but I don't consider myself a vegetarian anymore, because I'm not morally against it. My favorite animals are penguins and cats. I'm not really sure why, I just like them. I want to get out of where I'm living now, and go somewhere warmer, or maybe just more interesting. I don't even know why I'm still writing this. I guess I really just have nothing better to do with my time.
