I enjoy working out, eating, good friends, and generally having a good time. I'm a pretty open person and enjoy meeting new people. I like watching basketball, playing basketball and my favorite team is the Lakers. I speak Arabic, but it's not because I am ethnically Arab or anything like that. I learned Arabic when I was in the Marines to be an Arabic translator, and translate I did. I got the opportunity to work with and develop the Iraqi Army in Al Anbar province for a couple of years (2005-2007).

I am great, outgoing, and awesome

I spent 5 years in the military and now I am reaping the benefits of my hard work. I finished up my B.A. at U.C. Berkeley. I am currently majored in Near Eastern Languages and Literature (Arabic) My goal is to come back to Berkeley and get my M.A. in Classical Arabic Literature, and from there I want to either go for the PhD, or teach at a small university or junior college.

1.) Translating Arabic.
2.) Memorizing things.
2.) I'm pretty good at basketball.
4.) Flicking pennies and bottle caps.

My good smile :).

My favorite book is The Poetic Ideal: Al Mutanabbi. (he's considered the stallion of Arabic Poetry by the way). I also enjoyed 100 Years of Solitude (even though it was such a dense read), and Arabian Nights and Days by Najib Mahfudh
Movies... I like comedy. Anchorman, Blades of Glory, Borat and the like.
Music.. I like just about everything. I don't prefer one genre over another.
