Some little girl on here was told me I looked 33 going on 53, I had
to chuckle at that one... She also told me that I have a really bad
tan. I need to appologize for that, I am 50% Cherokee and 50%
Irish, so I tan in a weird reddish color. My camera is a 12
megapixel deal, and it can't seam to make me look good.... Of
course I find it funny that she was so into the physical that
instead of attacking anything else, she had to go for
appearance.
I am pretty successful in what I do, so why couldn't I be just as
successful in a long distance relationship. Also, be a little bit
honest ok? If your name has the word, cutie, honey or sexy in it,
make sure you match those traits... OKCUPID is alot like American
Idol, some people have been told they are super gorgeous there
entire life, but really they are just average. I mean, I am no
cream of the crop, but I am not calling myself, SEXYHUNKLY_BRADLEY
either....
I guess you can say I am just that typical nice guy who doesn't
seem to have a Mrs. Right in my life right now. I had plenty of
girlfriends in the past, but I was too selfish to keep them... now
I am a changed man, and I want to find someone who wants to just
have some good experiences with me and wants to have fun and always
be learning. I don't take myself too seriously and the person I am
with shouldn't do that either. I love the arts, and
entertainment...
Some say that I am a
dreamer and that I find too much good in
people around me. They are impressed by how I give everyone a fair
shot. The way I work is everyone gets one chance to show me they
are not like everyone else says. The thing about it is, I look at
people differently then most. I have been on all sides of this
world, and I have seen so many different types of life, that I
understand why some people live like they do...
My life is best summed up by the song, 'Wear Sunscreen' here are
those lyrics...
======================================================================
Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '97... wear sunscreen.
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would
be IT.
The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists
whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my
own meandering experience.
I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind. You will not
understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have
faded. But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of
yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much
possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really
looked.
You are NOT as fat as you imagine.
Don't worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is
as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing
bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that
never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm
on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Sing.
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts, don't put up with
people who are reckless with yours.
Floss.
Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead,
sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's
only with yourself.
Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you
succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank
statements.
Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your
life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what
they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40
year olds I know still don't.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone.
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't, maybe you'll have children,
maybe you won't, maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the
funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do,
don't congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself, either.
Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's. Enjoy your
body, use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it, or what
other people think of it, it's the greatest instrument you'll ever
own.
Dance. Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living
room.
Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel
ugly.
Get to know your parents, you never know when they'll be gone for
good.
Be nice to your siblings; they are your best link to your past and
the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you
should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in
lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people
you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard;
live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you
soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians
will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you'll
fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable,
politicians were noble and children respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust
fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when
either one might run out.
Don't mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it
will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who
supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of
fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over
the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen.
I started a
children's theatre in Iowa.
I love
acting,
directing and
working with
kids, so this was a dream job for me. IT is fairly new, but I
know this is where I will be 20 years from now.
Other than that I am just living my life day by day. If I began to
worry about the future then I think I would go crazy. Basically,
why worry? Did you know that Simon Cowell moved back in with his
parents when he was 33? He lived with them for two years and was
penniless. Now he is the riches, and I believe most powerful person
in entertainment. Simon makes and breaks careers just with his
insight.
I think it will be funny ten years from now when I am looking back
at this lonely and building time in my life. I will be with my
spouse and we will just laugh and laugh.
I am also doing P90X now, WOW, what a workout! If anyone has every
really wanted to lose weight, I really recommend P90X!
I also love to just push buttons. If you start to flirt with me,
I'll just flirt back to push your buttons. SO don't try and be too
much of a tease, I don't break easily..
nothing, because I am out there doing stuff! I know that sounds a
little cliche, but it is true. If more people spent as much menergy
on doing things as they did on wishing about doing things, there
would be so much more in this world and we would be farther than
ever before. The reason society has developed so much in the last
30 years is because people have actually been given more of a
choice to think outload and outside the box.
out at the local bar in town, hanging out with my friends.. Maybe I
will catch a movie by myself. I have been known to go the casino
and spend a few hours there.
I am afraid of Dolls.... mostly just China dolls..
and ventriloquist dummies.
I also watch ghost stories on Discovery Channel and then scare
myself into having to have a light on...
you just want to get to know someone who is a great guy and wants
to show you respect and fun.
