Creativity is a difficult thing to grasp. Most of the time, I am constantly racking my brain on how to come up with something new.

About Me
- Loren
- Most of the time I am a normal person. If you knew who I was you would know that I can stand out in a crowd. However, there is a good change that you never noticed me walking down the street. I try to be very observant. And I have an odd sense of humor. Your not likely to learn everything about me here, but you may be surprised on what you learn, even about yourself.
