About me:
|
I'm 19 years old and from Pennsylvania, Usa. I'm a skinhead. Now before you jump the gun and bill me a racist LISTEN!!!
Being a skinhead does not mean you are a racist. Being a skinhead is about doing what's right, pride, honesty, hard work,
music, and beer. The skinhead movement began as part of 1960's Jamaica, later the Jamaican "Rude Boys" spread the
culture to the working class of Britain. Thus, was born the skinhead. A working class rebel, A fighter, someone against the
grain. Racist skinheads are known as "boneheads" in our subculture. There are many anti-racist skinhead organizations out
there, SHARP and The ARA, as well as many more. These people dedicate a large part of their life combatting fascism and
bigotry throughout the scene. I myself am an independent skin, meaning I don't involve myself with politics.
For more information read "Spirit Of '69" or the Skinhead FAQ
About the pic: This was taken 3 months ago, Not that it matters but the reason my hair wasn't cropped short in this was
because I was halfway through the transitional phase between a punk and a skin. I know it looks like I'm some militant
psychotic with that haircut though. That's why I used to like it. Now my hair is shaved, I use a number three guide so its not
completely bald.
The other two people in this are my friend Paul and the former girl of my dreams/friend, Kellie.

Jo:
|
I met her only two short days ago and it already seems like I've known her my entire life. She's everything I have ever
wanted in a mate. She's intelligent, caring, warm-hearted, beautiful, incredibly sexual, funny, loves us bootboys, listens to
great bands, enjoys my writings, she's just too incredible to be true.
I'm so lucky to have met her. I think I'm going to end up marrying her, eventually settling down, and raising a family.
She's saved me from a 5 month period of self-doubt and self-hatred. My love life has gotten me down so much in the past. I
had thought I was so in love with Kellie(see above pic), I wanted to be with her forever... I asked her out one day and she
told me "I'm too good for her" and that "I have too many problems now for a relationship". Standard I don't like you as more
than a friend bullshit. Then I hooked up with this punk rock whore named Jen. We met and became great friends... eventually
we became lovers and I thought we were in love. She asked me out and 3 days later I caught her fucking some jock at a
party. Whatta skank...
Now that I've met Jo I don't care about anyone else. I can't even think about anyone else. She's my all, my everything, my
dream, and my idol...too bad she lives across the Atlantic Ocean...
