Bio

What's up? I am a junior at The University of Oregon and am studying Electronic Media in their Journalism school. I have made alot of videos for fun in the past, including skateboarding segments and funny shorts which lead me to working on an Electronic Media career for the future I am also a budding musician with several years of professional percussion training. I professionally produce alot of my own music with the help of my friends. I work as a professional white water rafting guide on the Deschutes River during the summer and posses an immense passion for the outdoors. I have a tendency to get a little "extreme" at times, even though that word has quickly grown cliché. I have learned over my years that the human body is only bound by the human mind; and once boundaries of the mind are shattered, this concept becomes a reality. Ultimately I'm seeking a career I can truly enjoy; resulting in a happy and fulfilling life. I am currently looking for opportunities to expand my portfolio. I am always encouraging of others to share their work and ideas with me, because I will gladly do the same. With peace, love, understanding, tolerance, eagerness, creativity, and happiness we can change ourselves and continue on to change the world. ~Tyler Macklin

Oregon knows how to keep it GREEN

Oregon knows how to keep it GREEN
While the academics of the class room are important, it seems much more fitting to find yourself and who you are in nature the way it was intended. Oregon hosts some of the most beautiful outdoor recreation destinations in the world and this is one After a long day snowshoeing around the glacier, Oregonians enjoy a relaxing sunset with the deer. Days like this help bring life into perspective (This picture is of some wild deer running through a field by Mt. Hood. It is important for people our age (college students who the future is comprised of) to really start examining what is important in this life. Love, beauty, nature, and friendship)

What did you do last week? Memories of Drinking? Parties? Exams? Paying the rent with your dead end fast-food job?

Life is too short to waste on such stupid shit. Get up, Get out, and Get yourself some reality. Find happiness and don't let it go.

FOUR TWENTY IS COMING

FOUR TWENTY IS COMING
Ahhhh four twenty.  It is a term often used, yet more often misunderstood.  Everyone knows that "Four Twenty" has something to do with drug culture, but most people have their own opinion about why or how the term got into existence.  The term supposedly started at San Rafael High School in 1971 with a small grou

Spencer's Butte Chilling

Spencer's Butte Chilling
Spencer's Butte is only a 10 minute drive from campus, so it is a GREAT place to get away from the pressures of school.  Hike up a few miles of trail, and you will find yourself able to distinguish pretty much every Eugene landmark and see till the sea.

here my friend chillaxs on a rock bench enjoying the great spring day.

Cigar in the Ear trick

Cigar in the Ear trick
Body piercing and tattoos seem to get more and more popular by the month, at least in college towns such as Eugene, Oregon.  I made it just over a year living here before I put 10 gauge holes in my own ears.

Here my friend sticks a cigar in his ear showing of his own gauges
