My name's Nick. I'm too refined. I live in Buffalo, New York. Born on the 11th of June. I'm currently attending Buffalo State College for communication design/art history (probably should decide..)

I love Buffy the Vampire Slayer, True Blood, Angel, Avatar, Le Sexoflex, The Hush Sound, Forgive Durden, volleyball and the Buffalo Sabres.

Expect me to post a lot about Sam Worthington. He is my boyfriend.
