I am amusing, clever, and quirky.
My Self-Summary
Disclaimer Part A-Yes I know how bad/silly my screen name is on
here, but that's what I use on stage and really should have gone
with what I use for most of my other online profiles(mikeybot) and
honestly I ripped the last name from Richard Hell of Television for
how it flows. I'd have liked to have gone with Mikey Mayhem, but
that sounds like Model Mayhem...Part B This is hardly indicative of
my writing style or ability, I'm merely writing things as they come
to me as I've never been very good at this type of thing.
I'm a constantly evolving person that is always searching for new
and interesting things to assimilate into my life. I sometimes seem
contradictory, though without being hypocritical(not taking your
own advice does not count). I'm very loyal to my friends, family
and those deserving of loyalty. I on rare occasions can be a little
too trusting, but once someone has lost my trust, it's extremely
difficult to get back. I love
music, I wish I were better at creating
visual arts and I always try to have something creative going on,
even if it is in the conceptual stage. I don't like to argue if I'm
not as informed on an issue as I'd like to be. I can come of as a
snob or an elitist at times, but that's mostly from the fact that I
can be shy at times and it exhibits itself as being stand-offish. I
guess the fact that I'm a bit of a
misanthrope doesn't help either. I'm
also a
Libra, and
from what I've been told(and subsequently read) quite a typical one
at that. While things aren't always in balance for me, they'll
usually wind up evening out in some way or finding some sort of
center point, even if it starts at an extreme.
Finally, this is something that frequently gets me negative
commentary/responses from people. I make a great effort to keep
myself in the physical shape that I do through eating, and
exercising(gym and running at least 5 times a week combined), so as
far as anything more than a friendship is concerned, I admit that I
can't get past a person's physical attractiveness to a point.
That's not to say I expect someone to be physically perfect by any
means. There is a certain amount of give and take when it comes to
that as far as person's personality goes. I don't care how
attractive someone is physically if they're vapid and have no
personality.
What I’m doing with my life
Currently working towards UNIX and Oracle certification.
Attempting to find time to work on some clothing design ideas I
have.
Playing with My Parasites(myspace.com/myparasites), possibly
joining another already established band(who happens to share
members with My Parasites) and working on yet another, unnamed
musical project(all of which I play guitar for)
I’m really good at
I don't know I could say I'm really good, but I know I don't suck
at playing guitar at least.
The first things people usually notice about me
I guess I'll say my eyes as that seems to be what I'm most
complimented on. I think that I'd immediately ignore/cease
conversation with anyone that pointed out my head is shaved.
Another thing that gets noticed is if my nails are painted, which
usually leads to an uncomfortable situation for the other person.
Sample conversation: "What's with your nails?" "They're painted"
[Insert awkward silence from other person]

tomatoes.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Many various things, I'm kind of on random constantly.
On a typical Friday night I am
Out somewhere hopefully having a good time(either bar, club or some
form of social activity)
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I think I might have a very slight case of OCD(eg, all my music has
to be organized)
You should message me if
You've read all of this and actually agree with most of it.
