i play nice until someone else doesn't play nice. i'm irish and dutch which explains a bit about me.
i used to drink a lot but have slowed down considerably but still will have a few when i'm not busy.
i smoke a lot.
i like to have a man who can keep up and get along with my friends.
i'm also really independent and don't deal with clingy people or people that can be really jealous, it's just not my style.
i like to have fun because if you take life too seriously, it will seriously fuck you up.
i love my family and friends to the ends of the earth and a good way to piss me off is to try to screw one of them over.
i like zombie movies, comic books, sega genesis, concerts, alcohol, cigarettes, a good book, a good movie, laughing, star gazing and trying new things out. boredom is death.
i don't tend to get along with most girls because i don't like drama and bullshit.
i tend to be more honest than i should, but then again, i don't really give a fuck about what people think of me, they're going to judge anyways so fuck em.

I work as a "sales associate" at a clearance party store and will be going back to school in the fall. other than work, i hang out with friends when i get a chance to, which sometimes to lead me to a bar to drink/play pool/to a show but a lot of the time i find myself having a quiet night in with friends. i love to meet new people. i'm always down to expand my group of friends and as long as you're chill and can take a joke then it's all good.

Writing, reading, philosophy, pool, cards, swimming, snowboarding, skiing, driving, drinking, walking into things because i am a total clumsy bastard, pretending to give a shit about what some people talk to me about at work (the smile and nod is so useful), quoting movies, being a jackass, and i can usually make someone laugh.
