About me:
The Existential Quandaries of Modern, uh, Postmodern Reality, Ya Dig?
For starters, I make passes at girls who wear glasses...
This is a waste of time.
What else? I'm a pretty nerdy fellow. Not the "'Dungeons and Dragons', I escape into my own pathetic little world of fantasy and science-fiction" nerd, but the can't who can't get enough of playing with my "toys" (and no, not talking about that toy). What can I say, I love taking things apart and putting them back together; especially electronics. I love the arts, in particular the pageantry arts. I marched in a drum corps colorguard (Lehigh Valley Knights - best colorguard in DCI DivIII '03 and '04) for three years. It's my passion, and I follow it avidly. I taught a HS colorguard for a summer, and plan to continue this while I'm still capable. I have been experimenting with writing drill, and may one day make a profitable hobby off this. I love to dance, and I love watching dance. Bar-hopping is fun, and I consider myself an amateur hobbyist at that. I'm a huge music nut (see my "music" section). I like everything from classical and baroque to post-punk and post-rock. I like concerts and I like shows. Occasionally, you can get me to the theatre (movie or stage) and take in a good film or play.
I like to run. If that doesn't work, then a nice, long walk is a good substitute.
I'm a huge history/geography buff as well. I could get lost in a good museum for days (the perks of living in the 'burbs of DC is they're all free).
I like to talk philosophy and politics like ka-ray-zee. I'm an avid socialist, and very opinionated on current events.
If you want to know me better, ask away!
There! That was very square-like...
|
Who I'd like to meet:
People unafraid to form their own opinions...and coincidently, happen to be awesome (and yes, this was just an excuse to fill in this blank until I think of something more clever)!
Essentially, know your shit; and if you don't, have an open mind. I'll try to do the same!
