My name is Gabe. I'm not the best at self-summaries, but I would say I'm pretty untypical. I enjoy conversation for what it's worth, and not just throwing out compliments back and forth. I can be pretty nerdy when it comes to books (hence my username), video games, and the internetz. :P

I'm on my senior year of working on my BA in English, with a minor in Criminal Justice (already completed). I intend to teach English under the college level while I work on my MFA in Creative Writing, whereupon I aspire to teach college-level English/Poetry upon the end of my educational career. I currently have a part-time job at a copy center, and am an English tutor for K-12. Outside of my academia I do keep a pretty strong focus of my social life, though my education is pretty much priority.

Conversation. You should talk to me so we can both talk about what it is we're good at :P

My eyes tend to be of popular interest. Also, I don't shave my chest like a lot of other men. I don't label myself, but I'm probably closer to a "bear" than a "twink". xD (this doesn't mean I have a preference of one over the other)

Dating site essays? No just kidding xD I like to think about the good things in life, normally present-day stuff.

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery; today is a gift, that's why it's called the present" -- Kung Fu Panda (childish film, but this quote is pretty genius).

Most likely out with friends. The club scene isn't my thing, so it's usually a friend's house, the movies, walking the beach (Hallandale, usually), a mall, arcade, etc. Lounges are pretty awesome too, like Gatsby's for example.

I filled all of this out in one sitting xD lol, converse with me, and maybe you'll be told more ;)

You made it to this last category, and feel that we share some mutual interest(s), or could have a conversation about something, whether or not relevant to anything written above. :)
