I am bright, nerdy, and particular.

My Self-Summary

I like to think that I'm fairly well balanced at least no one has called me crazy lately. However, when anyone tells me I'm not normal, I usually say thanks, have you seen what passes for normal? Maybe it would be better to just give a list of my interests and hobbies rather than a detailed description. Here's the list in no particular order: Physics, astrophysics, astronomy, quantum mechanics, chemistry, biology, science fiction, health care, advances in electronics, genetics, global warming, the environment, alternate energy technology and cooking. Hobbies:metal working (I can run a lathe and milling machine), welding (MIG, TIG, stick and gas) and even a little wood working (I've made an oak dining room table that I'm rather proud of).
I like building things and for the most part I don't mind repairing things, however I don't like to fix cars unless I have to, thay are a pain to work on.
I would like to build an energy self-sufficient house after I get out of school.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm currently working on my pharmD degree (pharmacy). I'll graduate in 2011.

I’m really good at

I don't know that there is one thing that I'm really good at, I'm more of a Jack of all trades.

The first things people usually notice about me

I really don't know. I'm too afraid to ask, don't know if my ego can take that much abuse.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: Science Fiction and fantasy. Movies: I like science fiction, fantasy, action, comedies, and the random romance. Music: mostly classic rock but I tend to listen to a bit of everything if I like the tune/lyrics. I have even been known to listen to some country and western songs. Food: I have been trying to explore new foods in the last year or so. I've been sampling Asian, Thai and a few others. It's interesting that a lot of what people eat is very dependent on what they ate as a child. For instance I was hesitant to try fish sauce but one of my favorite foods is traditionally a raw fermented beef/pork product that is hung at about room temperature for about 30 days (pepperoni). I've developed a liking for fish sauce, when used properly it does a great job of accenting flavors.

The six things I could never do without

I'm kind of fond of air, water, food, friends, family and a place to stay.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

I do spend a lot of time thinking but it's not on just one topic (see self summary above). I even spend time trying to figure out women (the question was what do you think about, not did you come up with any answers).

On a typical Friday night I am

Unwinding and or studying for the next test, depending on my schedule. Yes, it's depressing.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I can't spell, until spell checkers came along I had the choice of sticking to the words I could spell or misspelling everything. The first choice made it look like I only have a 4th grade vocabulary and the other makes me look like an idiot.
I spent a lot of time looking up the spelling so this profile wouldn't look too bad. I wonder if we could talk OkCupid into adding a spell checker to this site?

You should message me if

I'm looking for a long term relationship. If you like my profile or we are a good match based on my question answers message me.
NOTE: I know my answers indicate that I'm "more desiring of sex" but I'm not into casual sex.
