I'm from northern California, and I am very much a geek. I love everything from The Society for Creative Anachronism to Dungeons and Dragons to World of Warcraft and other games to all sorts of science fiction, fantasy, and other books. I also love piercings, tattoos, and cuddling! I comment on movies bad or good, laugh very hard during horror movies, and winter is by far my favorite time of the year. I enjoy cooking for
my loved ones and laughing so hard my stomach hurts at the end of the day.

I'm extremely passionate about most of my favorite things in life and a great way to get me to open up is to have a common interest with me, have an interest about participating or learning about some of my favorite activities, or have something you think I would like, such a books or bands. I'd really love to find someone to explore new things with. I want to watch more movies and shows, but I want to have someone there to enjoy those things with me.

I'm currently attending Cal Poly, majoring in aerospace engineering. After I get my degree, I'm hoping to work on civilian satellites or other non-combat related satellites. Failing a satellite job, I'd like to work on alternative energy.

Mathematics. Absolutely beautiful.
Reading. I have a lot of practice with it.
Cooking. I love to cook and try new things. I'm currently trying to find a good recipe for chow mein.
Laughing. I love to laugh, so I do it often.
Gardening... when I remember to water my plants.

I am quiet until you find a way to engage me in conversation and then I talk with my hands.

I'm starting to get into dubstep, some of it I like quite a bt, but I've also found some that I cannot stand at all.

My collection of books, my computer, my family, those people who are like family, my intelligence, and my pets.

I spend a huge amount of time thinking about music. Other than that, I think about whatever I'm reading at the moment, things I'm learning in class, and the people I care about. I'm also a practiced day-dreamer.

Hanging out with my SCA group, watching ridiculous internet videos with friends, playing WoW, or watching movies.

I love having my hands kissed.

You're literate and have seen something you'd like to chat about and get to know me through. I encourage rapier-like wit and bantering.

I saw this on another person's profile and thought it was a great idea, so if you've read my entire profile, thank you! When you send a message, it would be great if you could put the phrase "valar morghulis" somewhere in the message to show that you read everything. I also love it when people try to strike up a conversation in the message, so try to find something we can talk about.
