# About me
As you can see, I am a poet but the crazy thing is I have all these crazy ideas and I spend quite a lot of time trying to figure out if they are worth it so that's one good thing to know about me.I'm 17, love writing, love music, love learning about new things, love learning and questioning the need for social norms, understanding The Major Religions of the world, coming up with crazy ideas, love reading a good book(assuming I can finish one), and enjoying any good benevolence that I have within me. :)
I am a passionate music lover, as most of everyone else upon this establishment. The one music that I mostly associate with is Heavy Metal because of its freedom and assurance through my rough days. Now just because I love Heavy Metal doesn't mean that I do not have a great respect for other music. I was taught to explore different things and topics and that has developed for a great love for Underground Hip Hop because I feel that same creative credence Heavy Metal offers.
I have been idealistic since a very young age; even making my own stories when I started taking baths but I fully didn't start writing until I was 14 years old when, one day, after I read Robert Frost's "Stopping by the woods on a Snowy Evening" in my desolate prison cell of a Seventh Grade Language classroom, I was so moved by the imagery of the words that I decided 'If this guy could do it, I could do it.' So in my next hour, which was Intensive Math while my Math teacher was talking about polynomials, I remembered about what I said in my LA class. All I had on my desk was a piece of paper and a yellow pencil, five minutes later, I had my first actual poem. :D
Since those days of writing free-verse poems, I have progressed as a writer and I am not afraid to be experimental with my poetry; let's just say if I am not, it will affect me in many ways. I'm diagnosed with Bi-Polar II Disorder and I use writing as a main outlet to take my issues and turn it into a form of creative freedom. If I don't have that aspect of freedom, truth be told I can't even look at myself in the mirror without a frown. I admit that I hold onto the past for many different reasons but I like to use the things I lost in my past to my advantage so I can become a better writer and a better person in the future.
So yeah, I'm an Idealist, I like to get lost in my thoughts, I am emotional and I can be lazy on being organized but hey who isn't? I may not be be perfect but I prefer to be imperfect, I may have issues but I'd rather lose my mind before I can find it, I may be a bright and intelligent person but I know my journey is just beginning and I am willing to conquer that.
And as it says on the Shields Family Motto: Vincit qui patitur, which is Latin for:
"He conquers who endures."
Current Residence: Florida
Favourite genre of music: To be honest, No matter what music genre I love or admire, Heavy Metal will always be my Favorite genre of Music.
Favourite style of art: I look for Art that hides a secret and shows a double standard.
Operating System: Window 7
MP3 player of choice: Microsoft Zune
Favourite cartoon character: I have three: Ed, Edd n Eddy
Personal Quote: "He who conquers is who endures."
