ABOUT ME

I don't love to travel, I'm closed-minded and I don't like to meet new people. I live now instead of tomorrow or yesterday. I'm a self-centered hypocrite and you could describe me as being the one that makes to many sarcastic and ironic jokes that nobody understands. Beside that, I love music somewhat like; Fats Domino, MGMT, Edith Piaf, Floggin Molly, Radiohead, Chopin, The Offspring, Simon & Garfunkel and Rancid. I try to see life from a different perspective in witch I fail over and over again. Always up for a good or really bad party and in for things that are 'out of the ordinary'. Furthermore, I dislike people who listen to Justin Bieber and people who donate to Greenpeace.

PHILOSOPHY

The past is practice, don't moan, and never feel like shit, because its a waste of time
