Never Under-Estimate Me

Before i start this blog, i wanna shout out to my lovely lady, Steph. She has been an awesome girlfriend for four months and one day. Shes super supportive of me and my passion's, and im glad that i am able to share my life with her. She puts up with my stupid crap about tattoos and being a rockstar(I think she even encourages it :-P). I go to sleep everynight, thinking how lucky i am to have her...thank-you for everything.

Onto the blog, i was thinking about this for a while, so here it goes...

I realised, that life is fully of doubters and non-believers. Agree? Who remembers when doing a science project, they had an idea which turned out to be too hard to complete? Well, i have an idea, a plan or dream if you may, and i believe i can succeed. I dont want people telling me, that, its a hard dream to achieve or any of that bullshit. If i believe ( i can fly), in my dreams then i will be able to achieve them. Fuck the people who dont support you in your passions.

Ive been lucky in life. Ive been raised in a family who believe, that my life decisions should be made by me and no one else. But my parents have always tried to steer me to the correct moral paths, which i think theyve succeeded, coz i cant step on an ant without feeling bad. I also have friends who will support any decision i make, because they like me for who i am, and want to help me out in rough times, and share the good times with me. (F.F.F.E.)

I belive, im going to be a rockstar. To everyone who thinks it wont happen. FUCK YOU!!! Ill prove you wrong. Ill show you, what a nineteen year old, guitarist/lyric...guy can do. When i die, weather next year (God Forbid) or in 100 years, im going to be remembered as the person who believed in himself, and took every oppurtunity he was given to strive to his goals. Why start with small, pissy objectives. Ive set my mind of where i want to be, how i want to be, and want i want achieved in my life.

Being a rockstar, isnt my only dream. My whole life, ive wanted to fly. In year 10, i wanted to be an aero-engineer for a commercial airliner. I remember when i was super young, my grandma would take me to the Sydney Airport, because i would watch the planes for hours and hours (it seemed). I remember that day so well. To this day, if i hear a plane fly over, i have to see were it is, and if i dont, i get pissed off cause im curious about where it was going, and what kind of plane it was. When i stay at my grandmas, a jumbo jet flies over about 10 times a day, and i always watch everyone. I took my friend to the airport in November last year, and when she got onto the plane and left, i just stayed for about 90 mins, just watching the planes...(OH CRAP IM GETTING SIDE TRACKED!!!!)

To conclude this blog, sometimes i get very arrogant, and this blog is evidence of that. I have the oppurtunities in life to succeed and achieve my dreams, and im not going to let them slip and slide away from me. I want to be challenged in life, and this is how im going to do it. Everyone who knows me, Burnouts For God, will be evidence of how far im willing to take my dreams. Ill take Burnouts For God for as far as it goes, then push the boundaries to make it go further.

Thanks for your time.

Whats with all the Blink 182?


Hello pepps, i have finally updated my blog because of some nagging.
Anyway, i guess my friends, espically the ones who dont know me well, will ask, why does T-imsky like Blink 182 so much? Well, its easy to explain.

Back in 1997, i was watching Rage, and the film clip 'josie' came on, i laughed and laughed and laughed. The next week, i taped rage so i could watch it over and over. The following week, i bought the Josie single. It contained the josie, and 4 live tracks, i would laugh at all their jokes, and turnthe music up louder, knowing my mum hates them. This was the beginning.

A few years later, i had a $20 gift certificate for Target, and i saw the Mark, Tom and Travis Show selling for $23. It was a steal!!! A new cd costing $23 ( This is in 2000 by the way). I bought it. I couldnt afford to buy other cds at the time, coz my parents wouldnt give me the money, but i would hope. I listened to the cd, for i reckon, for about 2 years straight. It was the only thing i would listen to. (Im pathetic) It was truly, what i think, is a great CD. It had everything, songs (good songs), humor and pictures.

Before i go anyfurther, yes, i have a Blink-182 tattoo. Why? Two reasons, for remembering a band which changed my life. I have an apprication for music, for without them, i would of never developed. I went to my first rock concert, March 10th 2004. (Blink 182, Brand New and Gyroscope) and i can say, it was the best night of my life!!! Id waited seven years to see them, and i had a blast. I think about that night everyday (no joke) and i wish i could live it again! Secondly, Ive never been popular, always quiet, and the two who formed the band, were quiet and different from there friends, and they didnt give a FUCK they only had each other. They would hang out with each other, at school, after school and on the weekends. I know, they made me realise that i dont have to be popular to have fun. If i only have one friend in life, i will be grateful.

So, people can give me shit about liking Blink-182. But i couldnt care less. Its my life, and ill do what i want with it. I can relate to their music and theyve inspired me to create my own music as a passage for my emotions.

Ive added pics of Blink 182 and there band members which make me want to become as famous as them.
