    I've always been interested in the 60s for as long as I remember. My parents were born in the late 1940s so I grew up on 60s music and so forth.

    I don't consider myself a hippie. Hell, I'm not even sure what that it is, it seems it can mean different things to different people. Plus, I hate labelling myself 'cuz all the little connotations might not fit, and I don't want to try and force myself into a certain role.

    I just really like the kind of people here, and the attitude. I'm way liberal, easy-going, open-minded, love connecting with people and seeing others get connected, I love nature, I can be deep, creative and philosophical, etc. I believe life is meant to be enjoyed, and to help other people enjoy it, just live and let live. I also like fancy technology, extreme sports, and dressing stylish and sharp, which aren't things that seem really hippie-ish to me.

    I just try to be who I naturally feel like being, you know?

    I wish everyone was like this. Including myself.

    I dont necessarily consider myself a hippy, but most who see me would disagree. I have my way of thinking - my own set of beliefs, some similar to others who claim to be hippies, others not - I have my own personal fashion, some similar to others, but not quite... there seems to be a borderline in every part of who I am in comparrason to others. Whether or not I am hippy really doesnt matter, but my beliefs, my thoughts, my dreams, my hopes, my desires, all make me who I am, and that is what matters... is that I have my own beliefs, my own thoughts, my own dreams, my own hopes, and my own desires, or else, I am not me.

    And, I forgot to mention, I started becoming me the second I was conceived - there wasnt a day that I decided to start being me. Maybe times when I questioned myself, or wondered why I was me, but I was always.
