Update: Recently met a wonderful woman here on Okcupid! So, to anyone who is still 'looking', don't give up cause you might meet someone special when you're least expecting it.

I am mature, open-minded, independent, worldly and career-minded. I consider myself a complex and well-rounded man. If after reading my profile you feel we might have a connection and you want to know more about me, please ask some questions because I love to get mail even if it's just to talk about a mutual interest.

Please take my test "Are You Long-term Relationship Material Test". Thank you for visiting my profile.

I am witty, independent, and thoughtful

UPDATE: Just graduated on May 23 with Master of Arts in International Affairs-Sub-concentration Governance and Human Rights. If anyone is interested in networking as far as job resources are concerned, send me a message as it never hurts to have more than one set of eyes helping in the job search.

After spending a third stint living overseas in Japan now I'm back in the U.S. Originally from a small town in the Midwestern United States, I applied and was accepted into a graduate program in NYC. So, being the adventurous type I couldn't pass up the chance to study in the Big Apple and I accepted. Moving to the east coast has been challenging to say the least. But I'm always up to any challenge, especially when I've made my mind up to succeed. Although life can be tough here, I'm finding it interesting if nothing else and I'm hoping it will open up the door so I can find my special someone in life. So, I'm attending grad school and looking for the one in the concrete jungle of NYC.

更新：５月２３日にNYCのThe New Schoolと呼ばれる大学院から卒業しました。本当に嬉しい。今特に国際関係の就職を探していますので誰かさんもこんな就職のタイップを探せばお互いに協力すればもっと楽勝でしょう？一緒にネットワークの開発に気に入るなら是非ご連絡して下さい。

三回目で日本に住んでいた後アメリカに帰国すると決めた。出身はアメリカの中西部地方だと言うのにNYCである大学院に応募してそして入学した。冒険的な僕はBig Appleと言う町で勉強する機会があるから機会を見捨てるのは許さない。だからNYCまで移動しました。生活が時々苦しんで少なくとも面白い日々ばかりです。きっとNYCに暮らす間に適切な恋人が見つけるを望んでいる。だから現在大学院生として宿題を集中して恋人も募集中だ。

Writing, speaking Japanese, drawing, making friends and cooking etc.　小説を書いたり；日本語を生かしたり；絵を描いたり；、友達を作ったり；料理したりなど。。

people usually first notice my friendly personality and thoughtfulness

I'm a sci-fi fan so I love Star Trek, books about foreign language, I love Japanese and Italian cuisine. I like artists such as Sade (the 80s singer), Tori Amos, The Cranberries, Utada Hikaru (Go Hikki, you're beautiful and talented), Crystal Kay, Akeboshi, Bush, Sarah McLachlan and much more...

God is number 1 always; goals and dreams; family; freedom; friends

神様は何時も一番大切なことです；目標と夢；家族；自由；友達

My future career goals. I am very ambitious about my future. Also think a lot about finding the right woman to be my serious "sidekick" in life, if you know what I mean LOL. I promise she'll have equal spotlight to everything else in my life when I finally find her. As they say though, the hardest part is finding the one who fits the part best.

I like to stay home and watch a movie or play a video game. However, I will go out and be social when I feel the urge to be around people. I'm a pretty private person, but I do share my life with friends and family.　家で映画を見るとかテレビゲームとかする。しかし時々人々に包囲されたいとき町に出る。実際に内気な人だけどいつでも家族と友達と時を過ごす時間がある。

1 If you are serious about a friendship, i.e. you will e-mail at least once a　month.

2 If you have a profile that tells me something meaningful about yourself. ( I will no longer respond to people who leave their profiles completely blank).

3 If you have something meaningful to share and talk with me about, i.e. similar interests, hobbies, career goals, opinions etc.

4 If you are serious about the possibility of something more later (what ever that might be).

Note: These are not mutually exclusive, and if you know what that means, even more reason we'd get along ^_^ Don' be shy, I won't bite. I crack myself up!
