Imagine Whittier's beauty crystallized through the eyes of all it's townspeople. You will be notified as Perfect, Confused, and Fake. Which one would you choose for yourself? Perfect? Because that's how you want people to see you as. Confused? Because you have yet to find out who you really are. Or fake? Because you simply haven't looked in the mirror and recognized your face? Personally I would choose none, because if I had I'd already be labeling myself as something I'm not, I'm Richard...and that's just who I am. I hate, cry, fear, laugh and I love. Compared to the skin on my body and eyes that allow me to see, the same goes for you. Why can't you see that? I will honestly never change myself for your pleasure, but that's just how I am. Don't underestimate me. If you're a sexist, racist, homophobe, or basically an asshole who dresses like (and align themselves with) all the little pieces of shit you would normally see at a concert of bands like Bring Me The Horizon and Animal Collective, don't you dare talk to me. I don't care if you like me, I hate you.
My name is Richard and what you see is what you get.
There's a history that some will never understand.
1. I'm a neurotic mess that over analyzes everything.
2. I have friends but I spend a great deal of my time alone and for me that is vital because there's an awful lot you learn about yourself when you're alone.
3. It's not important to me that people understand me, but when they do....it's pure euphoria.
4. What I tend to do is to use my own experiences to get into someone else's mind, like in Wuthering Heights.
5. I am a private person, but not obsessively so. It's more that I choose to try and have as normal a life as possible. I don't like to live in the glare of publicity.
6. I'm very opinionated. I'm so fussy and picky. What's good is that I know what I want. It's when you don't know what you want when you're in trouble.
7. Although I am vegetarian, I still eat fish
8. I don't have a very good track record with royalty. All the police know who I am and my pants fell off when I met Barack Obama, so I'm just living up to whatever reputation I have.
9. Everyone thinks I'm close to having a nervous breakdown. But I don't think I am. I just don't put up with anyone's shit anymore.
10. I have nervous habits like touching my hair, touching my face, constantly turning around...etc. In other words I have a slight case of OCD. Really.
11. I have a crippling amount of self doubt.
12. There are a lot of things I hate myself for doing, but there's nothing I regret...even things I probably should.
13. I kind of hate how sarcastic I am.
14. I've watched the most fucked up videos imaginable online...you name it I've seen it.
15. I am not gay, straight, bisexual, or asexual. I do not view it as a question of that. I love someone for the person not for the gender. If loving a woman means I'm straight based on your perception of reality then by golly I'm straight.
16. To me personally, clothes are such a strong part of who a human being is.
17. Porn is really boring and unpleasing to me because the lighting is always bad and the production value is shit....if I'm gonna be watching two people going at it I want Steven Spielberg to direct it.
18. When I was four years old, my dog Lucky bit off my ring and pinky fingers on my right hand, They're back on now, but slightly crooked.
19. ^That's also the reason why I play guitar the way a right handed person would, if I played it the left handed way those fingers would be too weak on the fretboard.
20. Yes, I do have the liberty of singing about assholes, cunts, and conniving motherfuckers who think they can play me out.
21. I have an unhealthy obsession with Kate Bush.
22. I don't want people to be afraid of being themselves, which I think is everyone's greatest fear and desire.
23. Everyone knows that looks really do matter, even I'd hate to admit it, but EVERYONE knows deep down that it's true. But if you think that beauty is something that's flawless....you have some real issues to work on.
24. HATE.
25. I always have a lot of bounce energy, even though it never really shows when I'm not on stage.
26. I wear a size 11 shoe.
27. I like to dance for the cameras on the trafficlights...and yes, I did just make that reference, but I really do.
28. I sing to myself when I'm alone, especially in fuckin' rush hour Los Angeles traffic.
29. I don't think I'm particularly good at singing, but it's my way of getting a message across so get used too it.
30. I am a member of over 30 websites.
31. I met Gerard Way's mother on eBay, and yes it was 100% really her.
32. I can bust clouds with my mind....and so can you.
33. I can also predict certain events before they happen...and it's not because I'm psychic or anything...I'm just aware of what other people are doing and what is going on in the world around us.
34. I take notebooks everywhere I go and write about absolutely everything, I don't know but.....maybe some day it'll be released as a book or something.
35. I think everyone should go to bloggerbeware.com because Troy Steele is god.
36. So supposedly I have ADD because I was never able to pay attention in school, but I know I don't and never payed attention because school had nothing for me.
37. I don't know why, but little kids are fuckin' fascinated by me, I mean like everywhere I go they always stare at me.
38. I don't believe in a specific god, nor do I have any specific religion, but I definitely believe in a higher power, there's just too many ironies in life for there not to be.
39. During the months June-September I always have terrible night terrors and sometimes even seizures, I can't begin to explain how horrible it is, but I always get through it just fine.
40. I believe in and have had experiences with extraterrestrial life.
41. I worry a lot about everyone, which sometimes leads to the demise of my own mental and physical health.
42. I am not read well, but when I do read, I read well.
43. I do not consider myself a vocalist, instrumentalist, songwriter, or artist because well...first of all, everyone is an artist.
44. Secondly, the music scene is just something people align themselves with so they can fuck each other, and I'm not any part of that.
45. There are many false rumors against me, but I really don't care. Believe whatever you want, the people that really matter on my life will already know whether it's true or not.

If you think you could use a professional recording, talk to us. If you already have one, then check us out for the future! :-) Thanks! www.jmrecordings.com
you seriously have the worst timing, haha. i have to go :(
i'll check the message from lexi's tonight, i guess. oh oh hair dye shoppin' time, yeahhhh yeah. i don't know if i want red again, or dark. welly welly well, we'll see.
I watched The View this morning and it made me think of you. Sadly, there was no style techniques and even less monitor time with Whoooopie. However, I was greatly enthused by the cast of HAIR.
Happy, happy for watching that. I'm sorry you were so distressed lastnight/this morning. It's nothing to worry about, I promise.
I don't know why I'm commenting you, because we'll talk later. And I know for sure you probably won't be online today. Oh well.
Like how I'm doing this in stanzas of threes? I do too. Lots.
Actually, no, it's kind of annoying me, so I'll stop. Well hell, no I won't, I'm on a roll. Here goes nothing.
I hold much happiness in my heart for you, young Heathcliff. Even if you are the strangest person in the entire universe. Strange but beautiful, that's what you are.
Yep yep yep. Have a good day at home not reading this. And have fun reading it when you do.
