Now, onto the juicy stuff!
My Bio? eh. That's what the "cool kids" call it these days?
To be honest, I dislike "cool kids". They were the kids who picked on me through primary school because I actually knew how to long-divide. Unfortunately I find myself always around these "cool kids" to the stage where I eventually become one.
Now you'd expect me to say that I hate myself. What do you think this is? MySpace? No. I'm awesome. Way more then your sorry little self will ever be. No go cry over at that corner that your mind placed me in so stereotypically.
Yeah, now YOU know how it feels!
Anyhoo, PERSONALS! Name is Albert. I give the impression of a person who is older than what I actually am (the big yellow thing up top is a dead giveaway, by the way). I like to watch music being played in front of me. The livelier the better. Just don't go overboard. Over The Top - yes. Stripping and eating guitars - in context only. Clearly showing you are on an acid trip - get the fuck out.
I like to also proclaim myself as a cinefile. Get out your urban dictionary and find out what it means. Finally, I live in a quite infamous suburb due to a certain youtube video. Unfortunately I've never met "trent" and frankly, a character like Trent wouldn't survive around punchbowl station anyway. I suspect that if he does exist, his in exile with the people who made that video as all the gangsters lust for his blood back here.
If you're still around after all that, you should probably try find a job or set a career path in a field that involves stalking peoples lives. I have, it's called journalism.
