A lot has changed for me since I first came to this site. I quit my university program, decided to go to the college in the same town now for something incredibly different. The fact that I wasted 3 years of my time and thousands of dollars doesn't even bother me. I'm happier now than I have ever been, also more broke than I have ever been. I have learned over time that I don't need much to make me happy, just good friends and good company, and knowing that I am going on to do something meaningful with my life.

I grew up in a little hick town in the middle of nowhere. Gone through a bunch of s**t over the last couple years I guess...and that's exactly where most of my writing comes from. As my friend Mike told me a long time ago... you have to write about what you know.

We've all been through the same stuff... thought we've been in love, loved and lost, hated, etc. These are just my views on everything. Take them or leave them, but don't hate me for them.

I got a tattoo the first year I moved to school. It meant a lot at the time. But now, as I have grown older and wiser, I have decided it is time to cover the old piece with something that is new and meaningful. Now, in some ways covering my old piece seems dumb, but at the same time, I've evolved and healed. And the new piece will reflect it. And to me, by placing it over my existing artwork, it shows me becoming whole again.

I might be psychotic, irrational, a lover, a fighter for my beliefs, chasing after an impossible dream, and possibly the most random person you'll ever meet. But at the end of the day, I am me. Whole, complete, and unaltered. Take me as I am, cause I don't change for anyone.
