I am 25 years old, creative, and rather unique.
My Self-Summary
My name's Andrew, I'm 25 and have been living in Orlando for the
past 5 years. I moved here from south Florida, but I'm originally
from Massachusetts. I'm Colombian ...about 5'10 ...I graduated from
UCF with a marketing degree about 2 years ago, but after a little
over a year in that field I got a really strong urge to do
something that could help people (plus I was going insane being
pent up in a cubicle all day). I went back to school and also got a
job doing business admin. for a physical therapy office. While
working there and taking some anatomy & physiology classes I
realized I wanted to be a physical therapist, so for the next few
years I'll be working towards that.
I'm a pretty laid back guy with a kind of sarcastic sense of humor.
My friends and family say I have a huge heart and I guess I've been
known to wear it on my sleeve. I'm a very strong believer in karma
and treating people the way you'd like to be treated. I LOVE art.
If you're an artist and think I'd respect your work you should msg
me. Graffiti makes me smile. I've never been religious, but
recently I've been getting into
Buddhism. I love the idea of turning
any negative experience into a positive outcome. I think everything
happens for a reason, getting through rough times makes you a
stronger person. Politically I'm very liberal, conservatives and
republicans tend to annoy me. I'm also VERY into
musicand love to
dance,specifically a style called
popping (it can be a little difficult to describe, but if you want
to see what I'm talking about here ya go:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqDgpAYcjj8 ...I'm the second guy) I
really can't imagine my life without music and dancing. I'd like to
find more friends that have the same passion and appreciation for
it. Music, and dancing in particular, have probably saved my life,
they kept me out of a lot of trouble while I was living around
Miami and Ft.Lauderdale. Over the recent years I've been competing
and teaching for fun. ...and no, I don't like any of those dance
shows on TV or any of those dance movies! They make real street
dancers and b-boys look soft. ...but enough about that. Besides
music and dancing I really like to travel. I've been known to fly
off for a couple of days at the drop of hat if I get the major need
for a change in scenery (Red Light specials on Spirit Airlines kick
ass).
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently working as a massage therapist. I finished up massage
therapy school about a month ago and just got my license. I'm
anxious to get started, I gotta keep saving for grad school! ...I'm
also taking a few college classes that i need to complete before I
can apply to grad schools. I plan on getting my master's and
doctorate in physical therapy and there are just a few more science
classes I need to knock out. ...I also give dance lessons to a few
students I've managed to pick up over the last few years.
I’m really good at
...keeping dance floors funky : P
...drawing, although I don't get around to it nearly as much I as I
used to, I wanted to be a cartoonist for a long time so I still
have a lot of fun drawing cartoons.
...getting lost. I have a horrible sense of direction, but it tends
to work in my favor. I've met some really cool people while trying
to find my way around different cities.
The first things people usually notice about me
Hmm ...not really sure. You never really know how you look through
someone else's eyes.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I listen to a lot of different styles of music, just depends what
kind of mood I'm in. I listen to a lot of chilled out lounge type
of stuff, electro, breaks, funk, electro-funk, old-skool hip hop,
dub step, some drum&bass, and I also still listen to a lot of
the punk bands I was into when I was in high school. A few of my
favorite bands are Thievery Corporation, The Glitch Mob, Minus the
Bear, Death Cab, and Pennywise.
Some of my favorite movies are Shawshank Redemption, Snatch, Almost
Famous, Fight Club, Big Fish, What Dreams May Come, Into the Wild,
Romeo & Juliet, Eternal Sunshine, Anchor Man, Clerks, Mall
Rats. ...and my favorite TV shows are The Office and 30 Rock.
...and if I have to pick one favorite food it'd probably be cheese
steaks, I love those things!
The six things I could never do without
Music is def. #1.
I also can't go a day without dancing for at least a few
minutes.
My cat.
Sunshine ...I love just laying around at the beach or by the
pool.
Yoga ...if i go more than a few days without stretching I feel
weird.
...and cheese steaks
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Different travel spots I need to hit up, I probably spend way too
much time day dreaming about future trips. ...I eventually want to
spend a year just traveling around the world. ...but my next
international trip is def. to Paris!
On a typical Friday night I am
Having a good time.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
If I told everyone here than it wouldn't really be very private
would it?
You should message me if
...you think you're a bit weird (but in a good way). ...I also like
girls that are smarter than me, a sharp girl with a good sense of
humor always keeps my attention.
