I am driven, caring, and adventurous.
My Self-Summary
I love to
travel
and to be
outdoors. In my off time, that is what
I do mostly. I've been to 15 different countries now, and want to
go to them all before I die! Seeing as there are over 200, its
gonna be a good race!
Backpacking is something that I miss
doing on a regular basis ever since I moved from where it was a
short drive. I really wish I lived in the Rockies or at the very
least, the Appalachians so I could do it on a regular basis. I love
brewing beer. I am not super creative, but this is something that I
can do to make something that is different, and that I can enjoy!
Trying different beer that I have never had before is also a good
time. I am kind of a greenie. I love
recycling and get pissed when I see
people throw stuff away that can be recycled haha. Dork, I know! I
just feel that if everyone did their part, they could at least
reduce waste considerably. It is truely amazing how much stuff you
through away that can be recycled. Try it out for a week and see
for yourself!
What I’m doing with my life
I am an airline pilot based here in Louisville. I have been flying
for about 7 years, ever since I was in high school. As of lately, I
sit around on call and don't fly much, so I have a lot of free time
which is nice in a way, but pretty boring. I am currently finishing
up my Masters so I can do something other than
flying whenever I get tired of it. I
don't know when that will be, but I figure it will eventually
happen. I think I want to do something environmentally related.
Something that combines flying and green initiatives. That is what
my thesis is on. Like I said above, I am kind of a greenie :) Don't
hate!
I’m really good at
Being there when my friends need me, either for fun or when they
are having problems with something. I also think I am decent at
carrying on a conversation, but only once it is started. I suck at
talking to new people. But once that first sentence is said, I am
good! No clue why, but it is annoying!
The first things people usually notice about me
I would say the first thing people notice about me is my redhair or
my green eyes. You can't miss a redhead since there are so few of
us! Go gingers ;) And I have been told that people really like my
green eyes. Seeing as I can't see them except in a mirrow, I will
take their word for it!
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books:I like to read National Geographic magazines to try to learn
about the world. I love reading classic books that I never got to
read in school. Here lately, I have only been reading papers for my
Master's thesis though. Ugh...
Movies:I love independent movies. Anything. Some of my personal
favorites are Amelie, Donnie Darko, Life is Beautiful, Gattica, and
usually anything World War 2 related.
Music: Same thing with music as movies. I love independent bands.
The Strokes is my favorite band. Currently, I listen to a lot of
The Sounds, The Bravery, We Are Scientists, MGMT, The Ting Tings,
Daft Punk, just to name a few!
Food: I love trying different ethnic foods and attempting to cook
them. Usually they don't come out nearly as good as they do in a
restaurant, but never the less. I have recently become a huge fan
of cheap, dirty taquerias! I am great at cooking italian food among
others, and overall, I just really like to cook! It is one of my
few creative abilities!
The six things I could never do without
Flying, friends, the internet, family, traveling, God
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Where I want to go on my days off. It's almost a full time job
sometimes!
On a typical Friday night I am
Hanging out with a few friends, either chilling at the house or
going out for dinner and a drink. Usually keep it pretty laid back.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I've only been in love once.
You should message me if
You live in Louisville and want to chat!
