I am geeky, goofy, and sincere.
My Self-Summary
I am a gamer
geek and
a history
nerd that
also loves certain sports and the outdoors. Pleasantly goofy,
reliable, honest, intelligent, cautiously curious, and randomly
creative. I've never been a cheater or a bad boy. Most people would
probably consider me terminally unhip my entire life but I'm fine
with that because I'm not like most people. I make corny jokes and
use referential humor. I'm not a big partier or drinker. I've been
to Magic The Gathering tournaments, anime conventions, Megacon, and
a renaissance fair. I dress casually whenever possible. Sorted into
Ravenclaw,
Chaotic Good aligned, and mostly an INFJ personality. I voted for
Obama.
Some things I really enjoy:
gaming,
football (Miami Dolphins),
soccer,
kayaking, watching movies, reading
books,
history,
UFC,
minigolf,
traveling,
geocaching, camping, sci-fi, fantasy,
and going for a walk in the woods.
I think the personality awards OKC has given me in the Personality
section are actually pretty accurate.
What I’m doing with my life
I have an apartment by myself and work a full-time job that
includes the perk of being able to wear a t-shirt and jeans to
work. I don't have a career yet.
I'm taking a history course in the spring at FAU to test the waters
and see if I want to back for a history degree. I admit I don't
know know what I'd do with a history degree (I know I don't want to
become a teacher) but at this point I feel inclined to go the "do
what you love and try to find a way to make money at it".
I've started
geocaching.
I’m really good at
I knowing a large amount of trivia and random odd facts. Someone
once told me I "have alot of unusual information inside my
head".
I'm good at navigating; I pretty much never get lost.
I'm good at planning ahead. I improvise and do things on a whim
sometimes. But if I'm say going on a trip I'm pretty good about
being organized and prepared for it.
The first things people usually notice about me
I would guess it's sometimes my height but more often my shirt; I
usually wear either a Hawaiian shirt or a t-shirt promoting
something that interests me.
Probably also my mustache, as almost nobody my age seems to have
one.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: non-fiction, mostly
history, especially military history.
Other stuff I've particularly enjoyed includes
Chuck Klosterman,
Tim Dorsey,
Hitchhiker's
Guide to the Galaxy, and
Harry Potter.
Movies:
Lord
of the Rings trilogy extended edition, The
Matrix,
Tomb Raider,
The Mummy &
The Mummy Returns,
Batman Begins &
The Dark
Knight,
Serenity,
Underworld,
Shoot Em Up,
V for Vendetta,
The Princess Bride,
Iron Man.
TV:
House,
Mystery
Science Theater 3000,
Simpsons,
Family Guy,
Firefly,
Mythbusters,
Robot Chicken, The History
Channel, football. I don't watch much TV.
Music: Mostly rock, metal (only the coherent, non-screaming kind!)
and techno/trance. Some of my favorite bands:
Iron Maiden,
Metallica,
Anberlin,
Blue Oyster Cult,
Blind Guardian,
Linkin Park, U2, Flogging Molly.
Food: I love various forms of chicken and most Italian food with
red sauce, especially pizza. I don't eat alot of foreign
food.
Webcomics: xkcd, CTRL+ALT+DEL, Penny Arcade, Indexed, Unshelved,
Dr. McNinja.
The six things I could never do without
books: to feed my curiosity & kill time waiting or eating
alone
music: because life needs a soundtrack
gaming: Ludo Ergo Sum (I Game Therefore I Am)
puzzles: I feel the need to solve them.
outdoors: because a walk in the woods or paddling down a nice
stream brings me closer to zen.
pizza: because it's just so tasty!
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Trying to set goals and understand life. I'm introspective. I also
have lots of random mental tangents. Random things trigger my
curiosity. My brain is so active it sometimes makes it difficult
for me to fall asleep. I keep a notepad with me most times to jot
down random things of interest for later.
On a typical Friday night I am
Friday nights I am usually either watching
movies, gaming with friends, or going to
Friday Night Magic.
Saturday nights there's also the possibility of going to a sports
bar with friends to catch a UFC PPV.
If all else fails I'll just sit at home on my computer; I can live
with not every Friday night being exciting, especially if I'm worn
out from the week.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I have never wanted to have children and I believe that will never
change.
You should message me if
I would love to hear from a girl who is geeky, confident without
being cocky, and shares some of my interests and can respect the
rest. A girl that's a bit tomboyish and doesn't feel the need to
dress up alot or use alot of makeup.
Glasses and long hair are a bonus.
Smoking, drug use, and having kids are dealbreakers. I also don't
care for most tattoos or piercings (tongue & lip piercings in
particular are a major turnoff).
