They say when you die, your whole life flashes before your eyes. My motto is that you better make it something worth watching.

I’m not going to say something cheesy here like “I don’t believe a person can be summed up by one of these profiles.” Because from what I’ve seen on some other profiles some people apparently can be. Let’s just say I’m not one of those people but I’ll give it the old college try just for you.

First of all I believe in taking responsibility for life because ultimately it is what you make it. So I work pretty hard and stay pretty busy keeping my life from being boring and crappy. I hope you are the same way.

My favorite things are traveling to exciting and interesting places, cooking for my friends, discovering awesome places to grab a bite or hang out, learning new things and playing with my nieces. Getting cozy and watching a good movie is always a welcome treat as well especially with the right people or special person. I also love animals of all sorts, going to the zoo or aquarium is always a thrill.

[As an amendment to my last statement I’d like to exclude the following animals:
Sharks, Snakes, Bees and God’s joke the Platypus]

I believe in enjoying life and not wasting it doing things that you don’t like or that bore you. I enjoy travelling whenever I can and have plans to see and visit all of the coolest and most interesting things in the world.

When it comes to paying the bills I like to enjoy what I do. Why spend 1/3 of your life doing something boring that you hate, life’s just too short. It took a while but I finally figured out that I’m an entrepreneur at heart so building a business is my calling. I’m currently working mainly on web development.

I also am starting volunteering at the SPCA in my spare time to help walk and take care of poor homeless puppies.

Cooking. I’ll cook you an Italian dinner that will make you want to kiss me. Just bring some breath mints because I probably won’t want to kiss you if your breath reeks of garlic.

Achieving any goals I set my mind to. Whenever I want to achieve something I do. I’ve learned that perseverance mixed with a little research and willingness to take the risks needed ultimately always lead to the success you desire sooner or later.

I will melt your face in Guitar Hero or Rock Band. Let me know if you want to challenge me (Maybe I’ll go easy on you.)

Poker, 60% of the time I win every time!

I’m a great artist, possibly the next Picasso ask to see my work!

Food: I love all types of foods. BBQ is my extra special favorite. Go Salt Lick! I’m somewhat of a foodie especially when traveling. I like to get an idea of the culture of a place through the local food and hunt for best restaurants in the world.

My adorable nieces who bring me such joy.

My family. It may be trite to list family here but I really couldn’t live without them.

My laptop computer to keep up with my business.

Soothing music to keep me focused, relaxed and to enhance my mood.

Great food with which to enhance any situation.

A special woman to share life with.

1) My zombie escape plan (which happens to be quite similar to my crazy stalker escape plan). All I can say is ShamWow.

2) Names for my the puppy I'm getting soon.

5) Why there is semen everywhere on TV crime shows. I mean come on where are these criminals finding the time?

Chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool and all.

Continuing my quest to find the best restaurant in the world.

Rick rollin' kareoke halls.

I might be just a little bit of a geek. I studied computers in college and worked in the video game industry for a while, good times. But don’t take that to mean I’ll fix your computer for you after you click on those sketchy links you know you shouldn’t have. :P

You’re not a crazy stalker, ax murderer or obsessive weirdo. You’re not super flakey or a drama queen. You can hold a conversation with a bit more depth than what Britney Spears eats for brunch or what shoes Paris Hilton wore to some awards show.

Well since you’ve gotten all the way down here it’s obvious you want to message me, so just do it. Don’t be a wuss it’s not flattering. And if you think you’re not my type, well that’s for me to decide. I promise the worst I’ll do is ignore you :P

Oh but don't bother if you're going to insist on emailing endlessly for months and never meeting for a quick simple coffee or drinks which would be 100x more effective. I'm just going to get bored and you'll waste both our time.

Extra points if you find all of the television and movie quotes in my profile!
