Hey, I'm just a laid back guy looking for other laid back people to spend time with. I'm tall, I'm smart, I ride a motorcycle, I'm headed for med school in a year or two. I have run a half-marathon and have earned awards for soccer and tennis, including a HS state championship. I take my studies too seriously and everything else a little too lightly. I joke around alot. I am torn between being a natural night owl and morning classes. You want to hang around me, because I'm awesome and it's contagious.

I'm always looking for new activity partners. Hiking, running, tennis, etc. I like to go up one of the hills in the valley at least once a week.

Studying hard so I can get into med school. I'll be graduating from ASU West this summer and applying to med schools for next year.

Just about everything I've set my mind to. And that's not even an exaggeration. I just pick up new abilities quickly, always have. If I'm not good enough to be competitive, I'm not trying. Except art, I've never been super artistic, in spite of the enjoyment it brings me.

I'm tall, or I have long eyelashes... it's almost always one of those two. I've gotten used to being tall, but for some reason, when someone comments on my eye leashes (which is almost always a girl, lol), I don't really know how to react.

After that, it's usually my humor or intellect.

Books: Lord of the Rings, Eragon, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, etc. Most of the books I read are or were fairly popular.

I don't have favorite movies or shows, I've seen too many. There's more just a flavor of the month feel to what I like at any given time. I don't watch most movies more than once or twice.

It's hard to find music I don't enjoy. That said, Linkin Park and Daft Punk have an inordinate amount of representation in my library.

Pizza is my guilty pleasure. So are Oreos, I had to stop buying them. I eat a lot of meats and cheeses, fruits and veggies. I don't indulge my sweet tooth much anymore. There are many Taco Bell runs in my house. I love smelling bacon in the morning.

* My friends and family
* A computer with internet
* My phone
* A good pair of running shoes
* Late night conversations
* Air conditioning in the summer

Honestly? I have no idea. Some days, it's nothing but chemical equations and how iron could be used to safely cure cancer. Other times, it's how to beat my family at Sorry! Yes, we play board games pretty often. Still other times, it's humor, philosophy, politics, etc.

Studying or playing a game with my family. I'm not huge on barhopping/clubbing.

Even though he was a great man, I don't want to be like my father at all. He was harsh, strict, and intimidating. I want to be a gentle, understanding man. I think I'm actually doing well so far.

you think we have anything in common or could have some fun together. I try to write back as often as I can.

IF I messaged you first, please take it as a huge compliment and show of genuine interest. Writing messages to strangers is always a little awkward.
