Profile:
I'm Josh or "Plague" to others. I'm just a normal person with multiple talents looking to live life to the fullest. I am self-taught in HTML/XHTML, CSS, XML and learning Flash, Javascript, PHP, ASP and other generic programming. I have no college education at all and plan to get my education by joining the United States Army under Infantry/Combat Medic unless someone was to persuade me into a different path however my intelligence stops me from my goals and need to take an alternate route to succeed. I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed nor a book that shouldn't be judged by it's cover but I have skills/talents that outweigh others. Being into computers and web design I am also into music, art and photography.

I have been a musician since I was nine years old, having been playing guitar for 12 years now and playing other instruments such as the bass, drums, keyboard and also electronics/fx and signing. I also score, compose, write and mix my own music and studied musical theory and other musicians such as Yngwie Malmsteen, Michael Amott, Vinnie Vincent, George Lynch, Daniel Erlandson, Jaco pastorius, Jens Johanson, Jimi Hendrix, Randy Rhoads, Zakk Wylde, Dimebag Darrell, Ace Frehley/Paul Stanley and various other musicians. I got into music because of my step-father, he could sing and play multiple instruments and it inspired me to learn how to make music, create it and to tour. At the age of 18 when I learned "pinch harmonics" my step-dad asked how I did it, and I spent 10 minutes teaching him how to nail it and where the best harmonic spots on the guitar neck were. That day he told me when we were in a jam session that I has become a better guitar player than him, for me to hear that from my biggest father figure and musical inspiration; it meant alot to me.

I just Recently got into photography, I used a cheap digital camera and capture what I see through it that I find sensual to take. Besides photography, music and art I like to work out and stay in shape. I will normally be in the gym for an hour and at most maybe four hours depending on the intensity of each muscle workout and sets made.

I like alot of things ranging from meeting new people to teaching others things that I couldn't possibly learn in which makes me so ambitious to learn new things and try things I never thought I could do.
  • Myfriends/loved ones:
    • They always come first to me before anything. They were there with me in the good and bad times and I owe it all to them that they helped me as I helped them.
  • Meeting new people:
    • I like to meet new people with intellect and intelligence. People must always leave a good first impression with me if they would like me to respond to them or keep in touch with me.

Abby Has helped me out alot when I was going through my rough time. From my grandfather kicking me out of his house after I spent two years taking care of him and saved him from a heart attack; to coming to Texas only to get my heart broken beyond repair and to the death of my grandmother in which my grandfather didn't give her a service/funeral, it was hard for me and was contemplating things I never wanted to get into again. My birthday with this burden on me only made things worst, no girlfriend and no friends to party with, I thought I was gonna drink myself to sleep for my 21st birthday and no one would care but I didn't. Instead Abby spent the whole night talking with me, she helped me alot with keeping myself positive and keeping my head up when it got hard for me. I owe alot to her, I love her honesty and maturity. I could ask her something and get the better opinion of things from her. Since my strike of depression, Abby has been my light and got me out of it, I'm never gonna forget her helping me. I owe alot to her for it.

The people who I'd die for...

It takes alot for me to dislike you. I do however dislike alot of things from past experience.
  • Disloyalty
    • Backstabbing can be related to this. I have had my heart broken, friends betray me and my trust. from past experience of disloyalty I feel as if my heart has nothing anymore.
  • Dishonesty
    • This of course can relate to a broken heart. I hate being lied to or "played"by other people and friends. I was played alot by other schoolmates in sixth grade, they dared other girls to go out with me while they used to kick my ass everyday which hences my frequent suicide attempts back than.
  • Ignorance
    • Lack of intelligence and displaying no intelligence is absurd. If you cannot use proper grammar when speaking to me, I will not talk to you. I will admit I do if often however when I use it, it's legible to read.
  • Rivalry
    • Although rivalry is great for competing at seeing who's best I dislike it. It can bring out immaturity from both sides of the playing field and lets the fans see you for who you truly are.
  • Deception
    • talking people into false things and misleading them to me is unacceptable, the most common thing I see to deception is charging for vampirefreaks layouts. You cannot market a simple template for a profile on a community site that over a million people use and why charge when you can code them a template for free and earn their respect and referencing. Only when a template for a website that someone asks for that isn't related to whole profile, than that would be the time to market it because wit a template there is css, html, scripting and SEO as it's basic standards to any site. You combine these together along with some programming knowledge the money will be well worth it. I'd rather spend time learning new things than charge members of a community website five dollars or more for a simple template that will get you no where in reality but keep you stuck on a community website.
Music has always been apart of my life, I will listen to just about everything with the exceptions of country music and rap. I can tolerate it but cannot listen to it daily or own it.
