I am awkward, nerdy, and playful.
My Self-Summary
Hey, I'm Jason. I'm looking for friends. I like to get to know
someone before I... well, I like to get to know a guy.
I feel like the rest of the profile does a pretty good job of
describing me, in a cursory sort of way.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently working at a law firm in downtown SF. This is,
thankfully, temporary (another 6 months or so). My actual plan is
law school (fingers crossed for Berkeley). After that... things get
a little crazy.
In between quitting my job and starting law school, I'm going to be
visiting Italy for 4-6 months. It's my favorite place on earth.
I’m really good at
Hmm, enduring awkward silences. Heh.
I'm quite a good marksman. I'm ranked in junior and senior NRA
marksman rankings. I find shooting targets quite enjoyable. I'm
also not bad with a bow and arrow.
I'm pretty good at swimming (I was competitive all through High
School and in College), though I don't get to do it much anymore
(SF doesn't really have a ton of options in that area).
I'm decent at bowling, but it varies. I always have fun with it
though.
I'm good with computers. I love technology. We'll just it leave it
at that for now, haha.
Finally, language. I love learning new languages and I'm quite good
at it.
The first things people usually notice about me
How totally awkward I am. Usually it comes off as funny/endearing,
but I'm absolutely convinced it's just awkward. I've embraced it,
really.
Also, I've been told I have a nice smile and intense eyes when I
dance with someone.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books:
I'm reading 4 books right now: Brida (Paolo Coelho, because The
Alchemist is probably my favorite book), The Wind Up Bird
Chronicles (Haruki Murakami, because it was recommended), God Is
Not Great (Christopher Hitchens, because I'd like to know why he is
such an angry, albeit generally correct, man), and Pride and
Prejudice and Zombies (Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith,
because... well... it's Jane Austen + Zombies. I mean,
c'mon!).
Movies:
This is a difficult question. I'm pretty easy-going when it comes
to movies. I like everything from ditzy rom-coms to hardcore action
and adventure. The only genre I dislike is scary movies. I don't
think I can pick a favorite.
Music:
I'm currently on a Barenaked Ladies kick. I like Ben Folds,
Counting Crows, Third Eye Blind, Outkast, Missy Elliott, BNL,
Tiziano Ferro... to name a few. I REALLY like Italian music and
collegiate a capella (yeah, I know).
Food:
Real Italian food and my mom's Jewish food tie for first place. A
close 3rd is Japanese.
My favorite singular food item is the Doughnut.
The six things I could never do without
1) My Friends and Family. Cliche for a reason.
2) My laptop
3) Avocados
4) Wine
5) A good workout
6) The ability to do without
Also, puppies. I love dogs.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
My job, which new road bike I'm going to purchase, law
school.
Also, why more people don't use the subjunctive mood.
On a typical Friday night I am
Out with my friends. Friday night generally = friends night for me.
We go out dancing, drinking, playing trivia, to a movie, exploring
new places in the city.
I love my friends.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I'm afraid of whole fruit. Inquire within.
