My name is Ryan. I look somewhat young for my age. I love argyle, roller coasters, and a being told a good joke. I love the randomness of putting my iPod on shuffle and listening to my phone ringtones.

I've grown up in Houston and am still here, well, Houston-ish. I love the fact that I am an American, but I have an appreciation for cultures and languages around the world. Russia and Germany are my favorite foreign lands of magnificence and mystery. My ancestry lies in Germany, among other European nations. I love hearing music from around the world, nothing is better than listening to someone sing in a language I can't understand. I love the Cyrillic Alphabet. Я Люблю Тебя!

I love writing, but haven't had the time or any inspiration recently. I'm not going to try to be someone I'm not for anyone, but I'm always open to new experiences. I show my emotions very easily, and tend to feel everything pretty intensely. I love taking my life day by day. I want to travel the world. I hope to visit Seattle, Moscow, Johannesburg, Sydney, Berlin and everywhere in between, but it wouldn't be complete unless I had that one person to share it with. I don't mind taking it little by little, however.

Going to school as a General History major and working to pay for it, of course. I want to do museum work eventually, I love museums. I would like to find my true love and settle down in a big city at some point, better sooner than later.

your smile :)

My favorite book is American Gods by Neil Gaiman.

My favorite movies are Contact, Run Lola Run, Goodbye Lenin!, The Ninth Gate, and Skeleton Key, yet seventies and eighties slasher films are still among the best.

I love trying any kind of new food, it's always fun.

My favorite band is AFI.

My future and what I hope to gain and do to better myself and better the world around me. Also, the day I finally meet the love of my life, if he exists. I hope he exists.

I'm afraid of sunken ships. Pictures and videos of them frighten the hell out of me. It's just a thing...

You find me interesting, or would like to know more! I love talking to new people! Nothing drives me crazier than a little bit of scruff and a good conversation.
