I am quirky, mindful, and kinesthetic.
My Self-Summary
My name is Eli. Just moved to San Francisco this past June.
Previously lived in San Jose. Born and raised in the Chicago
suburbs.
I'm a young guy but I'm looking forward to where my life is headed
and the different directions it's going to take me. I think a lot
of people are solely interested in moving up the ladder - I'm
interested in going diagonally, upside-down, spiraling, and
exploring other avenues and options that life might offer, even if
it's just a taste. And that's not to say I don't have aspirations.
I have plenty long-term goals on my plate, but I accept that it
might mean taking an unconventional route to get there.
Is a relationship in my future? I definitely think so - however
it's not my biggest priority at the moment. If it happens it
happens and if it doesn't I'm not in a rush to force anything.
What I’m doing with my life
Getting into professional
contemporary dancing. Clothing
retail to make rent.
I’m really good at
Modern dance. Noticing particular
details but missing the big picture.
Unknowingly being funny.
The first things people usually notice about me
Typically
apparel
related I suppose? I get a lot of "I like your red eyeglasses" or
"very stylish scarf" kind of things.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Favorites can be so binding...
I generally like things that make me
laugh. I'm a sucker for romantic comedies,
even if they are incredibly predictable.
Favorite music tends to reflect my mood. Typical genres of interest
would include acoustic pop or alternative, electronica, world, but
really I'll explore almost any music. I would definitely NOT be so
much into death metal or rap.
Food? I love carbs. But I guess to be more specific, things like
pasta and breads I could eat for days.
The six things I could never do without
A safe place to sleep (security), a life-driving force (passion),
phone/internet (connection), human interaction (warmth), my brain
(logic/rationale), dancing/food/water (health/activity)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
The adventure of achieving my short and long-term
goals.
Dance - choreography in particular. I'm already envisioning my
future as a dance teacher and choreographer, even if I don't have
the means to realize it in the present quite yet.
My
aesthetic. I
do like how clothing has the ability to speak for someone's
personality. I don't have a great variety of clothing in the
moment, but I try and make sure that the pieces I have speak to my
aesthetic and are pieces that I really enjoy as opposed to just
having.
On a typical Friday night I am
My schedule isn't super typical - it hasn't quite become very
routine yet...which I suppose is a blessing.
You should message me if
I intrigue you enough for you to say "Hi".
