I love living life and making each day count. I can be the active outdoorsy type or the stay-at-home wrapped in a blanket guy, either way I'm passionate and fun loving! I like knowledge, but more importantly good discussion about ideas and what people think. I'm a romantic for the most part and lately I've been getting back into one of my old passions of, jogging, lifting, and reading in my spare time.

I am a student at UW Madison studying Secondary Education and English. For a bit I will be a teacher, but will most likely move onto a Masters quite soon and perhaps onto a PhD after. I want to go into either administration, higher education, or (and most likely) into the educational technology field doing anything from development, to sales, to curriculum. I am fascinated with the theories behind education, not to say I don't have other passions in life! If the right opportunity caught me right in anything tech related, I would get on that bandwagon in a second, as well.

I don't like the phrase "I'm really good at"...it seems a bit too forward to me. How about we use "I enjoy" or "I'm confidant in my ability to" lol....Reading, photography, writing, poetry, cooking, running, singing, computers, video games, making tea

My voice (it can be boisterous at times and I'm told I am a good singer) and my smile.

For books I would have to say Victor Hugo, The Mars Trilogy, LotR, Angels in America: Part I and II by Tony Kushner, The Great Gatsby, To Kill A Mocking Bird, Harry Potter,Emerson and other Transcendentalist Writings, Alexander Dumas, Writings on Buddhism, Books Pertaining to Sexuality, European Literature, Poe, Hawthorne......It also turns out that this semester has taught me that Victorian poetry is actually pretty cool and that British literature kinda schools American, lol

I adore film and all kinds of movie, both new and old. I try and keep it short! So....yea....The Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, 13 Days, Requiem for a Dream, Battle Royale, American Beauty, Children of Men, American History X, Finding Neverland, Pay It Forward, Gladiator, Citizen Cane, Casablanca, Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Producers (the original), Rushmore, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Beautiful Thing, The Village (I actually liked it, unlike most people), Lost in Translation, V for Vendetta, Superman: The Movie, What About Bob?, Schindler's List, SO MANY MORE (Seriously, I want to put at least 100 here, but I won't waste either your time or mine)

For music there is: NPR!!!!, Classical, Broadway, 30's through 80's, Indie, Post-Rock, Ambient, Soundtracks, Little Bit 'O Folk, (basically anything that requires actual musical talent and doesn't use a computer to 'enhance' the sound)

I love going out to eat and cooking. When I'm in a healthy mood I would say I enjoy Japanese the most. For the not-so-smart side of me I like Italian and late night Chinese takeout :)

1) My friends and family
2) Music
3) Pen and paper
4) My computer
5) The New York Times
6) Good conversation and company

Spiritualism and transcendentalism, life itself, beauty, boys (occasionally), politics, my immediate surroundings, where I'm going in life...

At a small party with mostly friends, playing video games with some of the guys, or having dinner with someone I enjoy spending time with.

I kind of find outie belly buttons attractive. Not in a fetish-y sort of way, just a "hmm, that's kinda cute" way. :P

you're a genuinely nice person who's looking for someone who's loving and compassionate.
