My college roommate couldn't figure out why I wore black the following day, having heard the announcement of his heart attack during a CART race one Sunday afternoon when i was a feshman...I used to be really weird, now that I think about it.
 
Let me try and remember, some things I have not mention along the years:

1. I have diabetes since 2009, I know that diet coke is bad for me, but I can't stop drinking it, I do drink lots of water, juice, teas

2. Since I got my driver license in 2005 I have had 4 cars, 1 SUV, 1 truck. The four cars and the SUV all have had transmission problems usually within a year and half of getting them, some lasted a bit longer, and in between I have been on the bus. The truck is my current vehicle - only had it about 2 weeks

3. I don't I think I have mention, or remember mentioning: I'm from Anaheim, California so is my uncle. My grandma and mom/dad are all from Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico

6. I've never had a drop of alcohol in my life. No drugs either, or anything in that sense. I may be only 15 but apparently it's tough to get by because it's the "cool" thing to do here.

7. I like abandoned places. They're really cool.
6 - same with me, I'm 26 y.o. watching how drunk family members (same with drugs) behave makes me feel embarrased being around them, its my inspiration for staying out.

My ancestors/ family were lords of Lothian in Scotland, and had close ties with the house of Windsor. My Uncle is the last in the line of Squires of Lothian in my family. I can trace the linage all the way back almost vertically to this chap, and still share the family name.

6. My acoutsic (nylon-stringed) is always in standerd tuning, but I have no idea what my strat, squier (3/4 size strat copy), bass (squier) are tuned in.
My bass and strat have standerd strings, but I never know what tuning their in until I start playing them, and it only takes a few seconds to change the tuning (their usually in Standerd, Eb standerd, Drop D, Drop C#, very rarely drop C.
My squier has C standerd strings, so it's usually in one of the lower tunings, right now it's probably in Drop C or Drop B
 
11. my Ibenez was, at one point, in this really weird tuning that was something like: (from string 6 to 1) F, A#, D flat, G flat, B flat, E flat. basically, it's just E flat tuning, but with the E and A strings tuned up half a step instead of down. I chose this because it was used in the ozzy song shot in the dark. That and I just like messing around with tunings.
