About me:

Everything happens for a reason. From the second you are born into this world until the second you leave it, and quite possibly beyond, we all live in the scribes of an unknown author. Call it fate, call it God, call it karma or whatever you want, but something somewhere has a plan for us all. So far I can't complain with the life I've been dealt, because through all of my ups and downs, the highs and the very lows, the cons have never outweighed the pros. I have a great family, albeit occasionally dysfunctional, great friends, even when I'm kind of a schmuck, and the most amazing, I'm happy to now be able to call her my fiancée in the world! We've been together since 12/12/04, and on 12/12/08, I asked her to marry me, and she graciously accepted, and I couldn't be happier :) Our lives are written in the stars as it seems, and I can only hope that the future grants me more positive paths towards success, so that in time, with all of my loved ones behind me, and my one true love by my side, I can be the man I am destined to become. A Godsend.

Who I'd like to meet:

Too many to name.

    Thats cool with me. I've always found the gay side to be kind of like the dark side. In some point in time you get fucked by your master (or you fuck him) and the dark side (like the gay side) has cookies. But not to bore you anymore with my comparing of the gay side to the dark side i'm doing good.
    How bout' yourself?

    Yeah, I think that's it.
    The maker's from a theatre, and they put their work on an onlineshop:

    http://www. ravenwoodmasks. com/animal-masquerade-mask. htm

    I found it for a CODSby kid, Jordan. I noticed he asked Ripchord on his page where he could get a replica.


    But when I saw the price, I fell back dude.
    LOL

    Wow, that's a huge bill.
    But the current pricing on the masks is a lot cheaper now, even if it is $225!

    That doesn't add up to the original bill. I guess it was so big because of the craftmanship cost. I guess she has molds for them now.


    She mentions Omega on one page on there.


    I was actually thinking of buying NTL's mask. The one with blood coming out of the eyes.


    For halloween or something. Streaks beneath the eyes are my thing, I always wear such things when on stage. (I go through bands in CA) It's some kind of KISS influence. Loved their make up.


    Now that I know that they originally cost a lot more, I am so motivated to get it!

    These are SO cool!

    =D! I am so happy for you!


    Oh also I wanted to ask you something?

    The masks worn, how did you obtain those?

    I mean I found the shop, and the designer who did them. They're worth $225 at her shop now.


    I was like WOOAAHHHH HOW MUCH DID THEY PAY!

    Did all the band put together the money for them, or did each member buy theirs individually?

    They're great quality, so the price seems just about right! They are very professional.
