I've been single for a while now and really have not put much effort in finding a romantic interest since returning to school, but I would like to start.

I have lots of interests that include sports and other outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, bike riding, and water activities. I love basketball and football and am a huge Magic and Dolphins fan.

While I am very much a guy and like sports, I also have a creative side and like to write. I have a variety of interests that go from politics (ardently independent) to art and culture. I enjoy going to art shows and museums as well as a good party. I love to travel, see new places, meet new people, and experience different cultures.

One thing I have not done much lately, but is easily among my favorite things to do, is to go see live music. I have been to a ton of concerts and music festivals over the years and want to get back into doing that more. I love going to multi-day camp-out festivals and completely immerse myself in music and dancing for several days.

I'm a writer. I'm a freelance entertainment and media technician. I recently graduated from UCF with a Bachelor's in Interdisciplinary Studies. I already had a film degree from Valencia Community College. I'm trying to concentrate on my writing so I can stop teching.

music:
I have a very eclectic taste in music. I can find something in every genre that I like and dislike, though I do like some forms more than others. One of my favorite past times is seeing live music and being turned on to new favorites. I like jam bands, hard rock, indie rock, funk, hip-hop, electronica, blue grass, jazz, and much more.

food:
I enjoy a good meal; though I am picky about certain food and I don't really like fish, except for shellfish. I love trying different ethnic foods, as long as the ingredients used are palatable to me. I love Mexican, Chinese, Italian, Homestyle, Barbecue, Cuban, Jamaican, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian, Mediteranean, and more.

story ideas that I should be writing down and developing.

Is there such thing? I could be working. I could be dancing. I could be relaxing. I should probably be writing.

I'm not much of a drinker, but I do smoke weed.
