Bedford, IN
Repping Indiana while jamming to California Girls!
Instead of "long hair, don't care", it's "short tolerance, long thoughts" for me and I'm never satisfied. I've never come home from school and had nothing to do. I constantly have a rehearsal, practice, or meeting to go to and it's squeezing in the time to do my homework between these events that's the real fun.
