music - i'm in a band with Xander. he sings, i play guitar. you can see our profile and hear our music by clicking here.
writing - Somewhere in middle school, I decided I was creative enough to be an author. That being said, I got to Chapter 9 in a book and scrapped it(it's still on fictionpress if you want to find it, I'm not giving you the link). However, during 8th and 9th grade, I managed a 100 page collection of ultra-short "horror/comedy" stories ranging from half a page to 10 pages long. At first the stories were totally unrelated, but after awhile in, I found there was a very amazing way to link them in the end and have the surviving central characters of each story come together. Of course, there were a few stories that didn't make sense to the overall plot I'd created and had to take them out. I decided these stories, strung together properly, badly in need of editing, detail and elaboration would make my perfect book I hope to one day finish and get published. But I think it's safe to say, I have a lot of trouble finishing long things like that, so if it does get published, it'll probably be my only novel. I also write bad/moderately entertaining poetry.. I don't think I'll give you the link that either.
reading - I read a lot, but not as much as I used to.
photography - During my first year of photography, I found out I was magnificent. Unfortunately during year II, I struggled for my creative control with my teacher. Halfway through year III, I quit. I would still love to do it free lance, but blah, I don't have the money right now.

Well,think it over once or twice,
What lasts the longest in this life,
Character, or rock hard thighs?
And in the end do you believe,
That beauty lies in what you see?
Cause if you do, then baby
You've been deceived

Do you really want to know about me? I'm an nineteen-year-old dealing with everything that's thrown at me on a day-to-day basis. I don't rely on stability and I'm prepared to do what I have to, no matter how hard, in order to survive. I'm thankful for a lot of things in my life, but probably not as much I resent a lot that has happened to me. But I'm through letting things get me down. I'm going to love everything I have and I'm going to survive. The love of my life, Xander, is one of the most important things to me. I would not trade him for anyone else. My bestest friend is Keeli. I love her more than aaannyyything(inside joke) and she's always there for me. There are few friends that are now-a-days. But you know who you are. So thanks. =]
I think a lot of these lyrics can describe me better than I can:
"Precious Illusions"
You'll rescue me right?
In the exact same way they never did..
I'll be happy right?
When your healing powers kick in
You'll complete me right?
Then my life can finally begin
I'll be worthy right?
Only when you realize the gem I am?
But this won't work now the way it once did
And I won't keep it up even though I would love to
Once I know who I'm not then I'll know who I am
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim
These precious illusions in my head
Did not let me down when I was defenseless
And parting with them is like parting
With invisible best friends
This ring will help me yet as will you knight in shining armor
This pill will help me yet as will these boys gone through like water
But this won't work as well as the way it once did
Cuz I want to decide between survival and bliss
And though I know who I'm not I still don't know who I am
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim
These precious illusions in my head
Did not let me down when I was a kid
And parting with them is like parting
With a childhood best friend
I've spent so long firmly looking outside me
I've spent so much time living in survival mode
This won't work now the way it once did
Cuz I want to decide between survival and bliss
And though I know who I'm not
I still don't know who I am
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim
These precious illusions in my head
Did not let me down when I was defenseless
And parting with them is like parting
With invisible best friends
These precious illusions in my head
Did not let me down when I was a kid
And parting with them is like parting
With childhood best friends
"Forgiven"
You know how us catholic girls can be
We make up for so much time a little too late
I never forgot it, confusing as it was
No fun with no guilt feelings
The sinners, the saviors, the loverless priests
Ill see you next sunday
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
I sang alleluia in the choir
I confessed my darkest deeds to an envious man
My brothers they never went blind for what they did
But I may as well have
In the name of the father, the skeptic and the son
I had one more stupid question
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
What I learned I rejected but I believe again
I will suffer the consequence of this inquisition
If I jump in this fountain, will I be forgiven
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
We all had delusions in our head
We all had our minds made up for us
We had to belive in something
So we did
"Underneath"
Look at us break our bonds in this kitchen
Look at us rallying all our defenses
Look at us waging war in our bedroom
Look at us jumping ship in our dialogues
There is no difference in what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
Right here all underneath
Look at us form our cliques in our sandbox
Look at us being cruel kids with both our hearts blocked
Look at us turn away from all the rough spots
Look at dictatorship on my own block
There is no difference in what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
Right here all underneath
How I've spun my wheels
With carts before my horse
And shine on the outside springs from bloom
Spotlight on these? seeds of simpler reasons
And score bourne into form, starts in my living room
There is no difference in what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
Right here all underneath
Jonny you are a force to be reckoned with I was on the Dead Pink myspace and you guys are just fuckin phenomenal, "So What For" is brilliant poetic and I want to bow down to your ability to be a muse. It's so strange to think that we've known each other over the internet in the early 2000's and now as this decade is almost over you are becoming a solid rock star and I'm a wannabe. You are my hero.
