I am passionate, understanding, and friggin' funny.
My Self-Summary
I'm very laid-back and open to all kinds of experiences as long as
it's with the right people (or person.) I love learning about
people and what makes them tick. I'm not much of a party guy, I
feel like I've grown out of it. Now I just like relaxing with good
people and having good conversations.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently in my last year of grad school earning my master's
degree in psychology at Phillip's Graduate Institute in their
Marriage and Family Therapy program. Yes, I'm training to be a
therapist... no that doesn't mean I'm going to analyze you. I keep
my private life and work life separate. My clients are not my
friends and my friends are not my clients.
It's absolutely essential for me to get outside and do something
active on a regular basis. I'm not much of an athlete, but if I go
too long without some kind of outdoor activity, I start to feel
bogged down. Ideally, I like to get as far away from civilization
as possible. Camping, Hikes, road trips out into the middle of
nowhere... I love it.
I’m really good at
Vegging out, random doodles when I'm bored, memorizing lyrics,
cooking (sometimes), my work, texting quickly, making people laugh,
public speaking, singing in falsetto, computer stuff, some kinds of
acting/performing.
The first things people usually notice about me
My sense of humor, my dashing good looks.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: The Power of Now, The Traveler's Gift, Stumbling on
Happiness, The Four Agreements, A New Earth, Drinking: A Love
Story.
Movies: Memento, The 40-Year Old Virgin, 300, The Birdcage, South
Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, The Money Pit, Pee-Wee's Big
Adventure, The Incredibles, Grease. (This is just a miniature
list)
Music: Anything from new age to death metal. My current favorite
bands are Radiohead, Air, Keane, The Killers, Arcade Fire, Regina
Spektor, MGMT.
The six things I could never do without
--Music
--A car
--Friends
--Bottled water
--My cell phone
--Nature
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Really deep, existential, philosophical things... and food.
On a typical Friday night I am
Out with a friend (or friends) watching a movie or having a nice
meal... or both.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I wear boxer briefs... but I still own one pair of tighty whities.
They're fine for certain occasions.
