i just found this. it’s kind of hilarious and awesome:

This is directly copy & pasted from the From First to Last website from Dereks bio.

“I lived with a 6 and a half foot tall schizophrenic mexican indian from chicago who was really into del the funky homosapien, and a girl from south florida who’s underwear usually ended up in the other guys closet, and not mind you, by any kind of consentual sexual contact. Anyways, two failed classes by both of my roommates and a restraining order later, I moved out of that apartment and into a one bedroom, where I spent the majority of my time listening to black metal and eating taco bell almost religiously. The other two went back to where they came from.” 

AND that is not exactly what happened OR how it happened. Hi, I’m the chick from South Florida he’s speaking of here. First of all, *I* never failed any classes at Full Sail, I left the school 5 months into the course because one of my lab instructors was a record producer who worked with big name bands (Red Hot Chili Peppers being one of them) and he couldn’t find work - he was doing labs at Full Sail to get work - which is when I realized that there was NO demand for recording engineers in the music industry and I wasting my time & money. It was a smart move on my part because everyone I kept in touch with from FS feel like that were shafted because their degrees are useless to them in the real world, no matter how much fun was had at that school. Secondly, the restraining order - Derek helped me get the restraining order on the 6 foot tall schizophrenic mexican indiana (or as my friends called him “pyscho mullet” because this guy had the biggest mullet you could ever imagine!) because the guy was obsessed with me in a major way. Derek & I got him evicted from our apartment and then got a restraining order. But after that whole ordeal, Dereks girlfriend of the time, Erin from Dereks home town, and my best friend from South Florida moved in to the apartment. It wasn’t until 7 months AFTER getting the restraining order that we all moved out. Erin & Derek broke up and she went back to California, and Tiffany and I had enough of the bullshit and moved back home. There were some good times in that apartment but Derek was hardly ever home because he was always out practicing in some godaweful noise band. He borrowed my 4 track and my guitar and when he came home to let us hear what he’d been working on it was literally just a bunch of noise. Loud noise. Derek & I were never friends, but we were roommates. And my best friend is the one who told me what he wrote in his band page bio, which is not totally accurate to how it went down. LOL. 


Yeah, I know that some of you chicks probably think I’m some stupid fan girl …Not the case. But I do think it’s funny that my ex-roommate is a “rockstar” now, though I kinda always thought he get some success because I’ve never known someone to be so deticated to practicing music ALL the friggin’ time. However, I’m not really into the music nor do I care about keeping tabs on what he’s up to these days. But when I was going through a picture box the other day I found two picture disks with pictures from Orlando and life at the apartment. And…Since Derek fans are probably the only people interested in these pictures or anything having to do with Derek, I thought I’d share them with you.

This was Erin & Derek after they dyed their hair black. When he moved in he was dirty blonde.

 

Well, that’s all. Have a good day, kids.
