Reading books that may or may not have pictures; PITTSBURGH STEELERS; being sarcastic, hating other people who are sarcastic, only hanging out with people who happen to be sarcastic, hating myself and everyone else around me because we are all so damn sarcastic; trying to be a better person than I am, pretending that trying to be a better person isn't that important to me; liking punk rock, hating punks; wishing I was emo, thanking God I'm not; thanking God less than I should; being pretentious without pretense

Heroes
Any person who knows how to act on the hand that they have been given. Any person who isn't scared to face down the uncomfortableness of being a person. The few who know that life is nothing more than actions and reactions. Those with strength enough to live life optimistically.
I've been a lot of things to a lot of people. But mostly, I just would like to be myself.
"Would you believe that I'm not even that big of a hockey fan?"
