19. earliest memory

I actually remember seeing graffiti on a wall by a trackside when I was in the back seat of my parent’s car and wondering what the scribble meant.

20.  any upcoming projects- shouts – final words !

well, I plan on writing my name on a ton of shit that doesn’t belong to me next year. I’m also returning to school to try get a lil edumacation, and hopefully travel a bit.
