I'm a good-natured 'old soul' who grew up really old school in a traditional Italian household -- and I now need a shrink! J/K ;-)
Actually I'm down to earth, honest, sincere and a friendly person. I can kind of be on the shy side, but once you get to know me, I love to talk! I'm a sucker for a good conversation!
I'm very family oriented and love having friends and family around me, enjoying each others company and just havin' fun. I'm also very loyal, and once you befriend me, I'll fight tooth n' nail for you. I'm the type of friend who would give you the shirt off my back if you needed it (just wash it before you return it okay? :-D). I love to cook and its one of my favorite ways of getting people together! What do you want from me? I'm Italian and there's nothing like good food and good company around a table.
I've been seeing a nice Italian girl who I met in the political world. She's very nice and very sweet. In fact, I GOT ENGAGED on May 3rd and am looking forward to getting married! :-)
The only real thing I have to do is teach her to speak Italian...or my Nonna says I can't marry her :-D
Aside from the typical family bit, I'm very proud of my parents, grandparents and the rest of my family for immigrating here to the States to find their own version of the American Dream. They came here with very, very little and built a life for themselves with almost no help from anyone - I genuinely honor their sacrifice to give us a better life. As such I've been dubbed Nicholas Anthony, Nicola Antonio, Nico, Nicky, Nick, and everything in between, but they're all uniquely me!
I'm also really into government and politics, I'm a big movie and music buff, I love history (especially Roman and American History), a big automotive enthusiast and anything cultural. Yeah, I'm kind of a geek in that regards, but in a good way! :-D
I was recently accepted by Seton Hall Law School in their evening program. Unfortunately, I had to delay a year, but will be starting in August 2009. Make sure you all send me lots of love, prayers, and good wishes - I'm going to need them! :-)
Non so che piu' posso scrivere. Ovviamente, per me, i radici sono molto importante e sono un grande parte di chi sono. Sono molto fiero e orgoglioso della mia famiglia e tutto che hanno fatto di venire qui in America. E, normalmente, voglio celebrare tutto che loro mi hanno imperato, come la nostra cultura, le nostre tradizioni, e la nostra storia. Se posso trovare la gente che pensa come me, e piu' bene ancora.
Infatto, se che qualcuno che poi capire e leggere le mie parole, scrivimi una nota, va bene?
Ecco... ;-)
