About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find a reason for all of this.

ABOUT ME

I am a musician, artist, construction worker, IT geek, and a member of a highly active social fraternity. My interests conflict many of todays "cliques". I matured early in life, and always felt out of place. I had issues with girlfriends and other friends when i was younger, because of this. I wanted to have a intellectually stimulating conversation, and all they wanted to talk about was the next football game or which locker we were going to meet up at. :P Anyway, that has changed now, being out of the public sector really has made all the difference. But most importantly, I love everyone, even if I don't like spending time with you :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have done would be swimming with wild dolphins. I was off the coast of the Turk islands, and we were scuba diving. The sights were so beautiful. One issue though, was that there was a huge barracuda about 40 feet away from me. I noticed it too late to get out of its territory and it looked very pissed. Then a school of dolphins who were swimming up the reef swam by, and one of them actually charged the barracuda, saving me from what would have been a interesting, to say the least, encounter. Then the school ( about 5 ) swam around me, and even got close enough for me to touch! They are amazing creatures, and have human level, if not more advanced intuition.
That truly was amazing.
