I moved to Bologna from Los Angeles last year to attend veterinary school. Just like the trauma of a displaced animal, i had my share of acceptance and adjustments to make from the comfy life i've had here in the US. I lived in 4 continents. Started and captained my own soccer team to victory (which is not easy for an octopus like me). I worked in the film industry in LA and overseas. Studied multiple disciplines for at least a year, worked as an analyst in medical research before i felt enough sun on my wings to fly with a purpose... My curiosity is vast and it gets the better of me (till i get satisfied...or...burned). although with time you become an experienced cat and you know that prayer only works while you are moving your feet. i don't fit any particular mold, and i wake up everyday on the brink of war between toying with life, and thinking seriously about the meaning of it all. I get restless sometimes, i eat chocolate often (no it does not cause pimples!). i am happy to be on my career track. i enjoy simple things. my mind may be absent at times while i am dwelling in my imagination. capture my imagination and you'll have access to things you didn't perceive.

A student of veterinary at Bologna (Italy). In my down time, and given the means, i like to travel, read, scuba dive, learn photography, cook, play tennis, and sometimes just chill! Not much of the bar or night club hopper. I am fun in my own ways, and i do prefer low key events to hype.

I've interned in Sacramento this past summer and it opened new doors for my career. I love what i do (Other than slapping dogs out of anesthesia and hypnotizing cats for medication)...but i cannot skip the exams. I can skip many lectures however and this means that i will be going back and forth often. I do intend to spend as much time as possible in sacramento and i am working on making that possible starting february of 2010 if i don't catch any italian rabbies.

I do have some down time which I spend studying and snooping around, I do like to make new friends who can share a good time, go to places, and add a flavor or two to this recipe we call life.

Arguing! I make a great lawyer!
Ironing...Ironically of course.
Claiming any claimed and unclaimed chocolate.
Sleeping like a bear, hunting like a tiger, screaming like a mad mafioso, and crying like a bambino that just did it in his diaperzzzzz!
It's all true except the last one. I do cry however...but only when cutting onions!

That i exist? because i sometimes forget that i do until someone says hi!

What people see depends on what they look for. You'd be surprised what you pickup if you meet things with a fresh perspective.

I like progressive trance, acoustic guitar, flamenco, lounge, some ethnic, some rock, some pop, some rap, and silence!

Some of my favorite movies are: Heat, Shawshank Redemption, Gran Torino, Black cat white cat, paradise now, le tigre e la neve, yes man, chocolat, Angela, children of heaven, guy ritchie movies ...and generally independent and foreign films

Like Mediterranean, arabic/persian, and Asian Fusion cuisine. Grilled meats and potatoes are fine. Seafood is my favorite and nothing beast a well seasoned burger.

Chocolate
Lung Action, a release
A good laugh
The human touch
A challenge
Imagination

mind-reading cats...they are just so impossible to figure out!
i also ruminate about bridging my life cross continents and the next episode of hard work, stability, and happiness.

Kicking it at my balcony reading on various things...with a glass of wine. but that's when i am in italy. here...no wine, no balcony, just mending the weekly wounds i have accumulated from those mean chihuahuas in practice.
Inviting friends over while trying some recipe.
Chatting over a drink/dinner somewhere.
Watching paint dry.

That your life is more valuable than knowning the color of my underwear?

It takes time to get to know me, I am shy at heart (although i might not show it) and my emotional side is buried but rich and sweet.

You understand that perfection doesn't exist. and that addiction to online dating is similar to the gambling syndrome. Tchatchings give you a temp high only! yes i know you agree.

But more importantly, that something that lasts starts in the head and finds its way to the heart for me.

You are genuinely curious and the idea of a cultured man doesn't make you run for your cowboy boots. Yipiyayo no more! and loving pasta doesn't make you Italian either!

You are an intuitive and nurturing person that eyes fun but is also seeking something serious in this life. Intelligence is a big turn on for me. You prime yourself on understanding, and learning. And you care to initiate and reciprocate with zest as part of developing a passionate chemical bond.

You and bridgett Jones have different concepts of love? and your fight/flight mode isn't stuck on the on position. =P
