BioFRIENDS ONLY. COMMENT TO BE ADDED. (I'll probably add you because I'm nice like that.)
A lot of how a person writes is in how they perceive themselves. Therefore, I'm going to briefly describe to you who I am so you get an idea of my style of writing.
I'm a sixteen year-old, free-thinking, agnostic, bisexual music freak.
Free-thinking. I hate structured English classes.
People say that bisexuality doesn't exist. That's ridiculous. How can someone say something they don't know anything about doesn't exist?
Music freak. I'm the son of two musicians and have taught myself piano and guitar. I listen to so much music of different styles, it's sometimes difficult to follow. For example, I could listen to Puccini and then listen to The Sex Pistols.
Most of the music I listen to is older and what people would consider "classic rock," as much as I hate that term. (What a lot of people call "classic rock" is just music that people would normally say sucked, but with the addition of "classic," it becomes an antique- beyond judgment.) I prefer to use the actual genre / sub-genre of music. Such as San Fransisco psychedelia vs. Los Angeles psychedelia. A lot of old stuff, mostly late sixties. But not like the kids that only know who Jim Morrison or Jimi Hendrix is because they've seen them on shirts at Hot Topic. Morrison was an pretentious asshole and I can't quite get into Hendrix. Clapton is God. I'm pretty well-informed.
Don't get me started on music; I won't shut up.
I love to laugh, so I always include a sense of wry humor in my writing. If you don't have a sense of humor when you write, why are you even reading it? You can't always sit crying in the corner. Sometimes you need to get up and let yourself be an ass.
My heroes range from Groucho Marx to Karl Marx. I love the word "pop."
I want to major in musical theatre.
I've always kind-of had the notion that I was going to die young. Therefore, I try to live like I want to live. I write a song if I want to write a song. If I don't like something I'll try to change it. I'm relatively outgoing and love to sing. No idea why I've always thought that though.
Christ, I sound like an eHarmony ad.
A lot of the time, I feel isolated from the world, rather Holden Caulfield if you will. So I write about what I think.
*****
However, my writing seems to have sparked a compilation of quite a bit of criticism in this time. Among its finer reviews, critics have said:
"These people just never shut up... especially Will."
-Leah Bubeck, The New York Post
"I had forgotten how much I enjoy reading[...] how Will writes down every aspect of his day."
-Jenny Unis, The Chicago Tribune
"Reading your crazy ranting is uber fun."
-Anonymous, The Village Voice
"I loved this almost as much as I've loved every single movie I've ever seen."
-Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
*****
So, whether you are interested in my style of writing, my opinions and views about things, or just need something to do when you're bored at work, feel free to add me. I update quite a lot, but you don't need to read a every word I type. Just a word or two occasionally.
I can't guarantee that I'll always be commenting on things, but I'll try to keep you posted. Usually, I pretty much always read everything, but I rarely get around to commenting. Sorry if you are offended by that. But really, if you are offended by it, I probably won't be interested in adding you back.

"My god is rock'n'roll." -Lou Reed
"At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality....
The leaders of the revolution have children just beginning to talk, who are not learning to call their fathers by name; wives, from whom they have to be separated as part of the general sacrifice of their lives to bring the revolution to its fulfilment; the circle of their friends is limited strictly to the number of fellow revolutionists. There is no life outside of the revolution.
In these circumstances one must have a great deal of humanity and a strong sense of justice and truth in order not to fall into extreme dogmatism and cold scholasticism, into isolation from the masses. We must strive every day so that this love of living humanity will be transformed into actual deeds, into acts that serve as examples, as a moving force." -Che Guevara
I usually have a deeper motivation for doing something than it appears. Feel free to debate anything I've said.
See ya...

| You are a Self-Discoverer |
 You're not religious, but you've created your own kind of spirituality. Introspective and thoughtful, you tend to look inward for the divine. You are distrusting of all forms of organized religion. You especially dislike religious gurus and leaders, who you feel are charlatans. |
