Music, Skateboarding, Reading, Going to Concerts, (Shows, going out and smoking some hookah and eating some hummus, just chilling and watching a meaningful movie, or something that'll make me laugh, pretty much anything that makes me think, move, and is good. The Ladies, people who are respectful and true to themselves, and their families and friends, Rock Climbing, reading, writing, (Poetry), movies that are thought provoking, good hearted people, open mindedness, and other things... I am a philanthropic person, I do my best everyday, even if my best is different each day. Though I am not weak. Protesting tyrannical governmental policies, eating better, excersizing my heart and mind.

How You Are In Love
You take a while to fall in love with someone. Trust takes time.
You give and take equally in relationships.
You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time.
You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change.
You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.
..
..
Thirty spokes share the wheel's hub;
It is the center hole that makes it useful.
Shape clay into a vessel;
It is the space within that makes it useful.
Cut doors and windows for a room;
It is the holes which make it useful.
Therefore benefit comes from what is there;
Usefulness from what is not there.
Tao Te Ching, 11
You fit in with: Taoism
Your ideals mostly resemble those of the Taoist faith. Spirituality is the most important thing in your life. You strive to live by all of your ideals, and live a very intellectually focused life.
The Innovative Sound Beam; using sensory technology transforms body movements into digital imagery and sound, making instrumentation and music composition possible! With its inception in 2006 since then, the sound beam has been used in Music Comp classes and presented at Cal State University. Thanks to Keith Hefner, and the crew.
The 2006 Sound Beam Project at Mesa Community College. This was later presented to Cal State University, features AN INTERVIEW WITH MYSELF AND MY INSTRUCTOR, Keith.
Music
a bunch of music Classical, Jazz, Reggae, Ska, Hip Hop, Punk, Hardcore, Crust, Metal, some death metal, classic Rock, 20's, 30's, 40's music, swing, 50's and 60's, and pretty much everything. and tons more... I took up playing the "sound beam." More on that later... I like too many bands and too much music to name them all here. However Here's some of my Fav's: Op Ivy, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Del The Funky Homosapien, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Medeski Martin & Wood, Peter Tosh, Thievery Corporation, City And Colour, Tiger Army, The Grateful Dead, Pearl Jam, Metallica, (old) Bob Marley, Immortal Technique, Propagandhi, The Books, The Roots, NOFX, Miles Davis, Jurassic 5, and sooooo many others! MUSIC THAT MAKES ME SOCIALLY AND ENVIRONMENTALY concious and therefore active, mainly music that invites my mind to take action to resist opressive systems and courses of action that would harm the environment both politically and socially, biologicaly and economicaly. Anything else is wasteful on the mind, heart, and soul! Music is a huge part of finding peace and serenity with my life, it's my Zen! My Nirvana ( I like the band too)
The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to obedience and warmth.
In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.
You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.
You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.
Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.
Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.
You think of marriage something you've always wanted... though you haven't really thought about it.
In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.
Well, maybe I'm trying too hard, maybe I'm not trying hard enough. I shouldn't forget my roots, and remember that punk and reggae wouldn't exist without ska.
Star Wars movies, (1 through 6), UHF, Dogtown and Z-Boys (Documentary), AMERICA: FROM FREEDOM TO FACISM, Bowling For Columbine, FEREINHEIGHT 9/11, SICKO, Naked World, Bra Boys, (surfing Documentary) Space Balls, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Stike Back, What The Bleep Do We Know?, Waking Life, Music Within, The Search For Animal Chin (Bones Brigade Vol. 3), Skate videos in general.

Television
kill your television! Accept when it comes to old shows like Jackie Gleason, Laurel and hardy, Charlie Chaplin, etc....
laurel and hardy - piano
anything by Emmerson, thoreau, and socrates, any book that makes me think and is intereting. (Usually non fiction) I love: Viktor Frankl, The Holy Bible, William Golding, Howard Zinn, Thich Naht Hanh, and others... Some of my other fav books are: Lord of The Flies, Man's Search For Meaning,The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus The Christ, Sophies World, The Four Agreements, The Anatomy of Peace, The Art of Peace, The Art of Power, etc... Love to read! Anything philosophical, theological, religious, don't mind religion as a way of life, anything else is just show, AND IS A WASTE OF TIME!
RELIGION IS: A set of symbols and metaphors that are used to express the spiritual language.
You're a Wild Drunk
You can get enough drink. Seriously, you'll just go puke and start pounding them back again!
You are a pro at playing the age old game of hard to get.
Your flirting style runs hot and cold, giving just enough to keep them chasing you.
Independent and self-sufficient, you don't need any one person to make you compelte.
And that independence is exactly what makes people pursue you.
Your playful nature brings out the happy inner-child in dates
You're willing to take risks in love... and reap the rewards
You've got a killer sense of humor that gets talking with any hottie you meet
Your negative traits:
Sometimes your sarcasm comes off as biting and abrasive
You can be brutally honest, tactless, and truthful even when it hurts
You're such a free spirit that you find it hard to commit to one person
Your ideal partner:
Someone high energy who will pick up and out with you whenever
Is creative and fun - thinking of new adventures for the two of you
Is bold... and not afraid to tell you "I love you" early on
Your dating style:
Unpredictable. You never know how the night is going to end up.
Your seduction style:
Daring. You're always pushing to try something new in the bedroom.
Full of imagination. You've always got a new fantasy you're dying to try.
Spritually driven. Sex for you can be an other-worldy act.
Tips for the future:
Realize that while freedom is great - sometimes a stable relationship is better.
It's not all about you. Focus on your parnter's needs every once and a while.
Make up your mind about your parnter, and stick to it. Your fickle will ruin things otherwise.
Best place to meet someone online:
American Singles - tons of flirting and fun to suite your inner extrovert
of course my brothers and my sister Jenna, and everyone who does and has believed in me as their friend, and anyone who believes in and loves themselves and others and who doesn't seek justification for being that way. Those who do not push their cause on anyone, but they just show themselves by what they do, philanthropists, doers, People who forgive, and live strong for the greater good of all! Especially, God. those are my heroes... HOLD FAST TO FRIENDSHIPS; THE TRUE SOURCE OF JOY, STRENGTH, HOPE, AND LOVE People who make it their lives to fight for those who cannot, and die for those who will now have a chance to live because of their sacrifice, their ultimate test of love. END THE WAR IN IRAQ, END GENOCIDE of HAITIAN PEOPLE, GET CANADA OUT OF HAITI, and tell the G8 to stop policing the world; and help it's own people. End Global imperialism, buy localy, and SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL COFFEE SHOPS, CO-OPs, FARMERS, and other businesses. PEACE PLEASE!
If every man did one good deed a day, the world would be a much better place..."

About me: It isn't all about me generally, cause people matter to me, other people. In this case though here's the skinny:
I Like to write, especially poetry. I love skateboarding, still after all these years. I am currently living Outside Phoenix... For now. Where I go from here, I am not sure?
I just want to say that I am thankful to all my friends (past and present) I still love you guys...
I love to read: some of my favs: Don Miguel Ruiz, (author: The Four Agreements), Thoreau, William Golding, author pf: Lord of The Flies, Viktor Frankl, (Author of: Man's Search For Meaning, anything philosophical or religious, Emmerson, Socrates, Timothy Leary, George Santayana (The Sense of Beauty), skate mags: (I don't look at these much anymore though) Thrasher, Slap.
I love all kinds of music: Hip Hop, Punk, Ska, Jazz, Metal, hardcore, reggae, rap, classic rock, and more styles than a shaolin monk. I've taken up rock climbing again, since I started in jr. high. I am loving life the best that I can... I am not proud of every choice that I've made in my life, but I don't regret any of them because I've learned from all of them, even some of the ones that hurt!
I don't like people who spend their whole lives being total jerks to everyone, I hate to hate people, and I try not to. It's just not in my character. I love to have long intellectual conversations with both sexes, especially older women. My two best friends in the world are My bro Sage, and my sister Jenna, we've been through a lot together!
Personality: I am outgoing, have a sometimes brash sense of humor... If there was ever a comedian with teret's syndrome that'd be me. LOL I am gentle and respectful to the ladies, friendly, known to make myself and other people laugh (even when I am acting like a fool) I still do impressions. Take care all, much Love and Aloha. I am like a book; and I wear myself on my sleeve so if you would like to know more just ask.
Peace N Unity,
(Spike) and whatever you wanna call me, just dont call me a homo, unless you're homolicious?
Live in the mystery, love in the now, forgive and forget past, and set your future as it comes. Remember, The Destination isn't as important as what you learn on the journey... As it's been said: "Sometimes it is better to travel than to arrive" God be with you, he will judge where your heart is, not how well you fit in to the confines of society, love others, love yourself, and know that God loves you and judges how well you show love to all, not just a few.
"I Shall pass this way but once; any good, therefore that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again."
I AM PERFECT IN ONLY ONE THING.. MY IMPERFECTIONS; the resolve to be at peace with others often comes from when adversity strikes... the saying goes, we cannot truly know joy without knowing discontentment, but the difference lies, we can chose to accept joy, to accept discontenting times, and then adopt a heart of joy and peace even in the hard times.... it must start within us, within me, within individuals... a heart of peace... Nothing else in this world matters!
You Are 28 Years Old
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.
13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.
20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.
You tend to be a stubborn lover, holding your ground in every argument
You take your time falling in love. You aren't the type to lose perspective.
You are loyal (to a fault), and you require the same loyalty in your sweetheart.
At your best, you are a wise and inspiring partner - who sticks around.
You're stuck in the 70s - for better or worse
Crazy hair, pot soaked clothes, and tons of groupies
Your kind showed the world how to rock
Is that freedom rock?... Well turn it up man!
You're California!
In many ways, you are larger than life and almost defy description. You
certainly love to shake, rattle, and roll with the best of them. You have a generally
sunny disposition, but are capable of resorting to harsh extremes when pressed. You are
more likely than most to become rich, or famous, or perhaps both. While you have the
golden touch in so many regards, your respect for actors is a little over-zealous. This
endless faith in actors needs to be terminated. Take the State Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.
You're Australia! You're easy-going, relaxed, and yet somewhat tough and hardy all at the
same time. You can appreciate culture, scuba diving, and even safaris. This
makes you pretty interesting and intriguing to others, though also really unpredictable and
even wild. Your knowledge of nature is unthinkable to most of those around you, even
though your respect for it is sometimes less than perfect. People really like your
accent.
Take the Country Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid
You're Canada! People make fun of you a lot, but they're stupid because you've
got a much better life than they do. In fact, they're probably just jealous.
You believe in crazy things like human rights and health care and not
dying in the streets, and you end up securing these rights for yourself and
others. If it weren't for your weird affection for ice hockey, you'd be
the perfect person.
Take the Country Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid
You're Hawaii!
When they first meet you, few people can tell whether you want to say
hello or goodbye. Either way, most of them will end up saying that you're their favorite
person to visit, if only they could afford the trip. But your soft and warm image is
belied by an explosive undercurrent in your personality than can leave you drenched with
tears or boiling with anger for days on end. You are rather fond of using plants as
clothing. Take the State Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.
You do not feel nervous in social situations, and have a good impression of what others think of you, however you experience panic, confusion, and helplessness when under pressure or stress. You tend not to talk much and prefer to let others control the activities of groups. You like the security of tradition, but sometimes have a desire to bend the rules and challenge conventional thinking. You find helping other people genuinely rewarding and are generally willing to assist those who are in need. You find that doing things for others is a form of self-fulfillment rather than self-sacrifice, however you do not enjoy confrontation, but you will stand up for yourself or push your point if you feel it is important. You have a strong sense of duty and obligation, and feel a moral obligation to do the right thing.
Who I'd like to meet: People with a good soul, who use their energy to lift up, to be a light in dark places, and people with a sense of loving action (Compassion) Anyone who can be real, and straight with me; we are in a world filled with fallacies, just give me some truth, all I want is the truth... People who share in human dignity, worth, and philanthropy... Those who are honest, and I can learn with and from.... I apreciate people who are diverse, and respect those who are different, without being judgmental... People who speak the truth with love....
