Hey, I'm Kio. I have a lot to say, but in all honesty, i hate to type. So.. Here are the basics:

I was born in Texas, Currently residing in Ohio. I was born into a family who, on both sides, are against Body Modification (with the exception of tattoos that cannot be covered up with a t-shirt). Both of my grandfathers were and are preachers in the Pentecostal church, yet I, ironically, subscribe to no organized religion.I love music, I listen to everything. I rap. I love playing my guitar. I am super into body modification, it is so expressive. It is actually a spiritual thing to me, not just something I do because I think it is cool or trendy. It is a part of me, and my modifications are a direct representation of the unity of my mind, body, and soul. I am a member of The Church of Body Modification. I am an arrogant, self absorbed asshole. I am absurd and suspicious. Full of conspiracy. A conspirator. Ridiculous. I have betrayed and have been betrayed. I am too trusting. But I am also doubtful. I will work my ass off. Yet I am lazy. I can turn a completely cold shoulder on you, but rarely without reason. Though it is known to happen. Fuck you. Fuck me? If I find that you are in my way, or holding me back, I will not hesitate to remove you from my life with barely a second glance back. I can love and care for you with all my heart. Or I cannot. I am cynical and blunt. Yet I am metaphorical and elusive. My reasoning for my actions will probably escape you and not make sense even if I explain it. Like I care. I can be outgoing as any. And I will be. If you ask, I will help you. Happily. I am a lover and fighter. A hater. I will give you everything I can of myself. I am Shay. This is me. Call me what you will. But I know who I am. What can I do for you? I wish to become a professional piercer, this is my dream. I study every article I can find on anything having to do with the subject. Everything from anatomy to aftercare to proper procedures. This is who i am, i trust that i will feel right at home in this community. Any helpful tips or advice that may help further my journey through this life of Modification would be greatly appreciated. =]
