Seriously, toy collectors and gamers are some of the kindest and most wholesome people out there.

It's about spreading that passion, right? Having a passion for something makes me happy. Maybe it will make others happy.

I love photography, I got myself a fancy camera when I was 16. I went to one punk show with my camera and took a couple of pictures(for fun). The venue owner loved them, so he paid for me to print them, and he put them up at the coat check. Some other artist saw them and asked for my info so I could get some pictures at a hip hop show. I met another photographer at the hip hop show, we became friends and he showed me tons of tricks and tips... to be supported and encouraged by these people was an incredible feeling. Let's keep the feeling going!
