I am Altruistic, Genuine, and Patient.
My Self-Summary
Oh self summaries are always fun (not really because I am terrible
at describing myself, its just better to get to know me via
messaging).
I'm an average guy looking to meet some one that is close to where
I live or go to college at. I am kind of seen as a quiet type of
person, but I really am not. That's just one of the first
impressions I seem to give off to people so when they get to know
me they are surprised to find that they were wrong (pleasantly so
though). I'm a cautious person when it comes to meeting new people,
but I think that is a good thing.
I am the type of person that supports my friends in all of their
decisions in life, but if they do something wrong I tell them my
opinion on the matter. I try to be very honest at all times, though
if something that I need to tell someone is harsh, then I do my
best to gently get my message across. At one point I think someone
called me a moral compass that always points north... I wasn't sure
how to take that one, but they said it was a compliment.
Well that at least, is a section of my self summary...
What I’m doing with my life
I am a full time student in college trying to get a doctorate in
pharmacy. I am currently in my third year (of 6). I plan to live
somewhere on the eastern side of the USA. Other than that I will
focus my time on having fun with my friends, relaxing, trying new
things, and enjoying life. I am pretty open to change.
Update (3-17-2009):
My life is kind of changing more so than I thought it would at this
point. My college is now requiring "rotations" at different
pharmacy practice locations during the summers now, so I may be
living in Albany over the summer now as well. I'm kind of glad of
that and not. Glad because my house is kind of a stressful place to
be because I am "so different" from my family (quote from my
mother). Good though because I will be on my own and doing what I
want to do and not having to worry about others/family and the
complexity of my old life. Though I will really miss my friends,
but the important ones I know will come to visit if I can't go and
visit them.
Update #2 (7-4-09)
I'm through my second week of rotations. It wasn't as bad as I
thought it was going to be. Glad of that as well. The pharmacy tech
crew and pharmacists have finally accepted me into their "group" so
to speak, so being there is a lot more enjoyable. This 4th is going
to be not as fun as last year because the college i'm dorming in is
closed so most everyone had to go home, but since I'm an RA I
didn't have to and plus couldn't because of my rotation. So i'm the
only one on campus basically and my friends off campus when away
for the holiday. Most interesting thing that has happened thus far
was I almost started a fire in the kitchen this morning... *sigh*
Don't ask... lol.
I’m really good at
Listening to others and just being there for people. I am told that
I am a loyal individual, but I just see that also as being
respectful and nice to people. I treat others how I would like to
be treated and I guess I must have higher standards in that area
since people keep commenting about my loyality... Hmmm wonder if
that is even a word, lol.
It has also been brought to my attention that I am fun to be with.
May that be because I am a fun individual, good at telling jokes,
or a great subject to make fun of, who knows. Probably a little bit
of each, but its all good. Oh and I can be very sarcastic at times,
but that's only if someone gets me going in that direction. I'm not
normally that way, I need guided to that area, but it always ends
up being a good time for all. Some peoples goal in life it seems,
is to try and get me to turn to the dark side, as they say, lol.
They really want me to become evil, speak my mind even when its
very negative, and just forget about others feelings. I take that
as a compliment because to me that means I am nice, well they would
say too nice, but is there such a thing? Maybe...
I also write things on occasion. If you are wondering what that may
be, just ask.
The first things people usually notice about me
Hmmm. It's these parts of surveys or questions that I am really bad
about. Most people don't tell me what their first
impressions/things they notice are. Well i'll try to recall
some.
1. That I am a very nice appearing guy. They didn't really say
anything beyond that when I questioned them if it was intended to
mean, nice to be with, nice to look at, or anything. They just
replied with, "just nice."
2. Quiet. But as described above, that's a common misconception,
though I am more quiet than the normal guy that is very
bostful.
3. That I am taller. I'm not that tall, but then again, I'm used to
my 6 foot 4 in. father and other tall people around me. So 6' 1" to
6' 2" doesn't really seem that tall when I still have people
towering me.
4. What do you think...? (Seriously, let me know and send me a
message. I'm a very curious person.)
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Movies:
Gladiator is my favorite movie of all time.
Horror
Comedy
Actions
All of the above.
I prefer fantasy kind of lore things, but also don't mind serious
books. (3-17-09)
Recently I haven't been able to sit down and read because my life
is too busy and i'd take interacting with people/humans than
interacting with books.
In
music, its just
about anything (Third Eye Blind, Coldplay, The Who, Linkin Park,
Blue Oct., AC/DC, The Killers, Three Days Grace). I don't like jass
or the blues though.
Food, same thing as
music, I only dislike very few things.
The six things I could never do without
I personally don't like this question. I don't like putting
limitations on the so many things that I really enjoy. I guess I'll
put a few down, but there is too much to place into six...
1) People (friends, fam, etc)
2) Peace (nature, meditation/just quiet time)
3) Recreation (Listening to music/watching movies/game/food)
4) Health (I could do with out this, but its very important)
5) Air?
6) Water?
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Life in general, such as what happened in a day or what I want to
do later. Usually my thoughts revolve around other people/friends
(figuring out how to fit in some visitation time with them).
I also think a lot about my past and how things affected who I am
today and how things might have been if I had made other choices.
High school is one of the major things that I think about while
bored (probably because I had a lot of good times with my friends
there and that I don't get to see them that much now that I am out
of state in college).
(3-17-09)
I spend a lot of my time thinking about my current life and if I am
happy with it or not and how it will affect me in the future. I
also think about the things I would like to be going on now in life
that I have had in the past. When I do this it leads me into
thoughts of my past... Not that my past was bad or anything. I'd
never change anything in it. It has made who I am today and I like
who I am. Sometimes I wish that I could have parts of my past back
though.
But ya, that's basically what I do. I took you on a small journey
right there, but I cut it short for convential purposes.
On a typical Friday night I am
(3-17-09) Watching some
anime and eating chinese with a friend. I
used to be playing video games as well, but I no longer have that
extra time due to college classes. (yes... I do like anime but I'm
not a nut about it). That or I am getting in some studying because
I have exams in the following week (excluding quizzes... can't wait
for the summer).
Now, if I had my way about what I could do on my friday nights,
this would be a little different. But do to where I am in my life
now (college and the such), this is what I do.
(11-1-09) Typically on more recent friday nights, I am trying to
relax from the stressful week. More just visiting with people,
maybe playing video games, or if the upcoming week looks pretty
bad, studying for what ever exam I have next. Life at my college is
rough right now. The Residence Life department said that the
student body moral is at an all time low and they are trying to
figure out how to make life here better. Wow, this has been a very
negative entry... oh well. This is my typical friday night atm.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I guess that I am a very sensitive person and usually can relate to
girls more than
guys, feelings wise in certain situations. I've always been able to
understand girls better than guys most of the time because guys are
not always so willing to open up to other people.
(3-17-09)
Eh, i'd tell more, but it would only be privately. That's just how
I work. I have no problem talking to people about things if its one
on one. There are just somethings that aren't ment for the public,
you know? Plus telling things in private causes room for trust and
friendship to grow, along with other things.
You should message me if
(7-4-09) You are interested in getting to know who I am, if this
profile shows a glimpse of something you may want in your life
(friendship wise or possibly more). Or if you're just lonely and
want someone to talk to. Most likely, I will listen. I'm good at
that and do it often.
