13 Random Facts
1) I am completely addicted to Korean Dramas. They have fascinating love stories. The dramas get kind of nerve wrecking with the families, parents, and everybody against the main couple and does everything short of murder to keep them apart. Still, I get caught up in the romance.

“I was just a normal guy from a normal family planted right dead smack in the middle of Normal Town, U.S.A.”
