I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

hmmm... about me. let's see now. I used to think that i am a pretty careful person who pays attention to everything. but now i have come to realize that being careful all the time isn't exactly healthy. sometimes you just need to break out of the mould and do something crazy.

My Interests

I am a "Semi" atheletic person. used to play basketball, but since of the massive weight gain, i no longer am able to play with out huffing and puffing. so now i am down to playing tennis (soft tennis to be precise).I like movies that make you go "hmmm... interesting" some of my favorite movies are "The Usualy suspect", and "Memento", and of course "Citizen Kain".I love to read, but most of my collection is from the classics. nothing contemporary (for now). Favorite book is "The stranger from a strange land" and "The cat who walks through walls". I highly reconmend tem to anyone who has not read it.I like hanging out with my friends, expect the ones that make me sick in Vegas (you know who you are) j/k.

I'd like to meet:

People who i can be myself with. so few and rare.

Music:

I love classical music (eventhough i can't name any of the pieces). Hip/Hop and Rap is a must (eventhough i mostly listen to it for the beats). Alternative music was introduced while in College (listen to it cus it;s main stream). Dance music gets my moods agoing (recent discovery thanks to a special someone). Jazz is a given. (what else can transcend the culture and generational gaps better than Jazz)

Movies:

look above.... for those too lazy to look up here is a short list: The Usualy Suspect, Memento, Fight Club, Citizen Kain, Some Like It Hot, One flew over the cuckoo's nest, Chinatown, and the ultimate Scarface. Newer movies: Bourne Identity, Bourne Supremacy, I, Robot, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Amelie, The Spanish Apartment... will add when more comes to mind.

Television:

The Simpsons (doesn't everyone), Family Guy, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, Food Network (IRON CHEF, Alton Brown), Anything that has to do with animals.

Books:

books? again look above or here: Stanger in a strange land, The cat who walks through walls, Anything by sir author conan doyle, Snow Crash, Harry Potter (yes i do like reading harry potter books). I've been trying to read Atlas Shrugged and Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, but the begining proves to be somewhat difficult.

Heroes:

one one hero: you know who you are. your altruism is something that i will always try to achieve and maybe one day i can be as selfless and willing to sacrafice for someone else as you are.
