I didn't think my old summery gave a good feel of who I am, so now I'm trying something new. Just a list of words and phrases that other people have used to describe me. The list will grow as I take more polls, or find more references to myself.

"The smartest person you know"
"The one that won't take your crap"
"caring, smart, funny"
"clever, open-minded"
"friendly, a good cook!"
"Good taste in TV and movies"
"not afraid to say what you think or feel"
"honest, a sweetheart, helpful, down to earth"
"goodhearted, well rounded"

I've almost completed a computer science major at SCSU with a minor in math. I enjoy the problem solving aspect of programming. I like things to do with logic and have some interest in philosophy as well. I also do some tutoring in math and computer science when I have time.

I'm very good at fixing computers, though I can't stand it when people use that skill to define me(being know as "the computer guy" can suck sometimes). I'm also pretty good at martial arts. I have a first degree black belt in Tang Soo Do and some experience in jujitsu. I've also been learning to cook, my roommates tend to give me rave reviews, although they may just be happy to not be eating ramen. I'm also pretty good at video games,origami and waiting out awkward silences, sitting in silence just doesn't seem to bother me as much as it does other people. Oh ya, and Guitar Hero. I rock. The game told me so.

I have no idea. I'm not a mind reader, nor do I poll people about their observations of me in our first moments of meeting. If i had to guess, physically my height may be the first thing they notice and non-physical, probably that I am quiet or shy.

Books:

The Ender's Game series, Hitchhikers Guide series, and His Dark Materials are some of my favorites. I mostly gravitate in the direction of fantasy and sci-fi, or just something that will make me laugh. Tao Te Ching as well.

Movies:

Boondock Saints, Watchmen, Dark Knight, Pirates of the Caribbean, Down Periscope, Be Cool, Hook, Final Fantasy: Advent Children, Aladdin (and other old school animated disney stuff), V for Vendetta, The Notebook (ya, I'm a softy), The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Emperor's New Groove.

I'll watch almost anything that is well made and has a decent plot. I especially enjoy movies that have clever dialog or just pleasing voices, so that I can listen to it while also working on other things. Movies like Scary movie, American Pie, and their ilk don't particularly appeal to me.

TV:

Mentalist, Castle, House, Dexter, Lost, Prison Break, Psych, Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, Firefly, Venture Brothers, The Ultimate Fighter, 24, Dr. Who, Heroes, Pushing Daisies

Music:

I'll listen to pretty much anything, not so much of a fan of country or rap, but even they're not all bad either.

Food:

I make delicious chicken marsala. It is my best dish I've made so far, and one of my favorites.

six things I could never do without... hmm... wouldn't you like to know. I'm not about to post my weaknesses on the interweb, that would be foolish. If any of my enemies found out that I need things like air and water to live I would be doomed. Damn, said too much.

The past, the future (immediate and long term), friends, family, food

typical used to be going to karate, but if anything better comes up I'm always up for a change. I am not a big party person though. I prefer a quiet night in with friends or someone special, maybe a movie or some intelligent conversation, though less-intelligent conversation can be entertaining too.

I miss being in a serious relationship. I like to cuddle and I'm not into the one night stand or friends with benefits thing. Also, I was once stabbed in the hand with a sword. Not really private... but interesting all the same. It was an accident. It was unpleasant. I don't suggest it.

Well... you've read this far. So you must be thinking about it. Go on. Just do it. Don't be shy.
