A weary world full of boredom raised it's hands to the heavens pleading to the gods for one single blessing. It was on this day that Urban Cook Jr. was born. And, the world wept with Thanksgiving.

My name is Urban, take that name down, it'll be worth something one day.
I'm 20yrs old.
I'm fairly tall (6'3).
I have quite a few friends, but there are only a few of them that I'm really close to. I'd rather have five close friends rather than twenty-five aquaintances.
I'm currently studying acting at AMDA (The American Musical and Dramatic Academy) in New York, NY and loving every minute of it :).
The bible says that my being the way I am is an abomination. Yeah, I read that chapter. It's in Leviticus, no too far from the chapter discussing the abomination that is the consumption of shellfish, but that doesn't stop the local preacher from chowing down on a crab leg. Hypocrisy, much? I'm not bitter with Christianity. I love being a Christian. It's the bastardization of God and Christanity that I'm bitter with.
I hope to become a Broadway Actor, that's going to take alot of training and work to become, but that's my goal. I believe that in this world you're only as good as believe you can be. And, I hate being proven wrong, so I think it's a good thing that I'm setting a high goal, so that I can prove someone else wrong.
I'm a very sporadic person.
I have my good days and I have my bad days. But, I normally carry a smile on my face.
I'm a very outspoken person.
I'm a very big worry-er (is that even a word!?).
I'm kinda OCD in many situations, but hey get over it.
I try to be outspoken, without being moronic. No one wants to hang around with a loud-mouth who doesn't know when to shut up.
Uhm... I'm afraid of heights, bugs, penguins, clowns, bats, open water, and somtimes the dark.
I LOVE my friends! They are very special people and I'm willing to stand up for them.
I sometimes have a condescending sense of humor, 98% of the time, I don't really mean it.
I've grown to have a profound respect for the Catholic faith, thanks to April. :)
I HATE Cashews!
I Like Family Guy, Futurama, and Robot Chicken!
My mom hung the moon, in my eyes
Cape Cod is one of the most Beautiful places I've ever seen!
I like old school junk like Zelda, Mario Bros., Rocko's Modern Life, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, etc.
I can't drink anything without counting my sips/gulps.
I'm the clumbsiest person I know. I once caught my aunt's hair on fire while cooking. I'm practically an example of Murphy's law.
Seeing the colors black and brown within a foot of each other(as in one person wearing them at the same time) makes me very angry... Like HULK angry... Just... Don't do it, okay?
sweet! congratz urban =) and im good... livin with my aunt and everett at the moment.. tony's good, hes about to quit a job though and get a different one... the kids are crazy, black, out of control, and black... lol, its hard to explain... but i support him... so, hows college life?
