Trying to explain the complexity of who you are as a constantly
evolving individual in a few hundred words has always seemed a bit
silly but I'll give it a try and see what happens.
Where to start... I'm kind of a dork. =) Not a dress up in armor
and fight with fake swords kind of dork, but I like playing
video games
with my friends, weird/quirky humor, and occasionally watching
cartoons. I also like going to the beach,
snowboarding, camping, actually I
like the outdoors in general.
I also have an awesome(or terrible, depending on your perspective)
tendency to go on spontaneous adventures. (11:30 pm on a Wenesday?
Quick! Let's go to Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles!) Not exactly sure
how I developed this particular talent but it keeps life
interesting. I guess I'm just a victim of circumstance. :)
I really enjoy intelligent conversation but I spend a lot of time
talking about nonsense (if you hadn't already figured that out). I
like meeting people who go below the superficial bullshit and talk
about something that has actual meaning. I love to travel, I've
been to 12 countries and I'll hopefully go to many more. I like to
live life to the fullest so I try and experience everything.
Right now I'm going to school and will hopefully transfer to either
UCLA or UC Berkley. I'm majoring in Cognitive Science which is
basically the study of how humans think, learn, and perceive. It
combines a lot of my interest into one major, which works out
pretty nicely for me. I'm not entirely sure what I want to do after
I graduate but I'm looking into to it.
I'm also writing a web sitcom with a friend. I'm doing it just for
fun and I don't really think anything will come out of it but you
never know.
Making people laugh. Talking. Thinking. Eating cupcakes.
I have a wide range on just about all of the above.
Books: I like Thriller, Fantasy, Sci-Fi and Mystery books. I also
read a lot of nonfiction. Someone of my favorite authors are,
J.R.R. Tolkien,
Tucker Max, Frank Herbert, and
David
Sedaris. Right now I'm reading Happy Hour is for Amateurs by
Philadelphia Lawyer, its about the authors life as a lawyer and the
crazy drug-fueled excapades he went on to cope with the boredom and
irritation of his job. It sounds depressing but it's actually
rather funny and insightful.
Movies: I'll watch just about anything, (although Horror films have
been know to make me scream like a 12 year old girl). Some of my
favorites are American Beauty, Casino,
The Big Lebowski, Plup Fiction,
Snatch,
Superbad,
and Old School.
Music: I listen a lot of different types of music. Like a real lot.
People like me are the reason they still make the 160 gig iPods. It
would be practically impossible for me to narrow down my favorite
band. I listen to just about anything; from
Rock to
Hip-Hop to
Jazz to
Punk and everything in between (although I
tend to shy away from country). I love live music, I've seen at
least 40 bands in concert.
Food: I love Italian, Chinese,
Korean BBQ, Hambergers,
Sushi... Actually when it
comes to food I love just about everything. I have a particular
soft spot for
cupcakes though.
TV: I know it's not a section but if you're a big fan of
Curb Your
Enthusiasm,
Seinfeld,
Always Sunny in
Philadelphia,
Californication or
30 Rock then we'll probably
get along. :)
I'm a pretty open person so anything you'd like to know feel free
to ask and I'll most likely answer.
1. You're awesome.
2. I seem like someone you could be friends with or maybe something
more.
