*starts beatbox*

Where's the guy who's spontaneous and free
Yet grounded enough to be heading where he wants to be

Where's the guy who can stay up for hours and talk
And isn't on this site simply looking for a good *coughs*

*record scratching*

Where's the guy who's unique and confident enough not to be a sheep
It's not tangible things that sweep this gal off her feet

Where's the guy who's considerate enough to keep in touch
But isn't hung up on clinginess or a co-dependence and such

Where's the guy who knows how precious life is
And doesn't waste his time fighting over meaningless things

Awe yeah....break it down for me fellas!

*musical interlude*

See, I'm looking for a guy who's most certainly rare
To share life's adventures but I can't find him anywhere!

And when the candy-coated conversations are all said and done
The connection and chemistry left will tell me you're the one.

*stops beatbox*

I am a romantic with my feet on the ground and my heart in the clouds. I am also a very sensual person. I want to be with a man who brings out this side of my personality. I enjoy spontaneous kisses and affection, as well as other kinds of fun...

I strive to bring passion into every aspect of my life. I’m an optimist by default, so I tend to try to find creative solutions to every day problems. It helps me move through life’s growth-inspiring events.

Music is my outlet. I find the piano both inspiring and soothing. I sometimes play for hours when I’m alone. I play a little guitar, too. I'm a songwriter and I write instrumental music. I can be shy about my music, but I would love to play/sing for you if you’d like to listen.

There are a couple of mp3s at the bottom of my profile.

Do we share taste in music?

Death Cab For Cutie, Bright Eyes, Fiona Apple, Coldplay, Stars, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Mozart, Magnetic Fields, Pinback, Harry Connick Jr, Jimmy Eat World, The Lucksmiths, Zero 7, Sufjan Stevens, Royksopp, UNKLE, Massive Attack, Yoav, Josh Rouse, Feist, Billy Holiday, Grandaddy, Cafe Del Mar, Postal Service, Modest Mouse, Clem Snide, Goldfrapp, DNTEL, etc...

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind is one of the most humbling love stories I’ve ever seen. The Court Jester is one of the most hilarious movies I’ve ever seen… and I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve cried from laughing so hard watching it. I really shouldn’t still find it that funny, but I do! I thank my Dad for my crazy sense of humour.

I try to lead a healthy lifestyle. I'm what I call a Healthitarian. There are two rules to being a Healthitarian:

1. I eat what *I* feel is healthy for me.

2. It is healthy to break rules.

I aim for Organic or local food. I enjoy creatively cooking off the top of my head with fish or meat replacements and spices from different cultures. I avoid most dairy, but I’ll break that rule every so often.

You don't have to have the same diet. It would make cooking together easier, but there are ways around that. I'm not offended by meat. To each their own.

You have a strong sense of self. You are confident about who you are, but open to change big and small. Not the kind of change that is forced upon you, but a quiet change that naturally happens as you move through life and grow as a person. You have already done some inner work and know who you are. You enjoy what you do for a living. While you do have a sensitive side, you are more-so a masculine man; on your path and strong. You are comfortable being the guiding force/energy in the relationship. You also enjoy your significant other taking the lead. You have your own set of values, morals, and don’t need a woman to define who you are. You are looking for a woman to complement you, not complete you. You have a desire to be in a relationship, not a need. You are very much enjoying your life and want to share it with someone. You are not afraid of commitment. You are trusting and trustworthy.

If the words above resonate with you, we're off to a good start.

The songs below are works in progress that I wrote and recorded in my apartment.

"Make it Go Away" is written from a dysfunctional perspective. She wants to do everything she can to make him happy, at her sacrifice, hoping it will make the relationship happy.

The other piece is mostly an instrumental.

If you can't tell, all the instruments are midi. I can't really play that many instruments, hehe.

Both mp3s below open in a new window. They may take a few minutes to load.
