What Does Your Name Mean?
What's up? My name's Daniel (Dano for short). I'm a very independent person. I live by myself, but I'm never alone. I pretty much keep to myself most of the time. So if you really want to get to know me just come talk to me. I'm not one who likes to be up in everyone's business. I Now have a dog named Rocky. He goes wherever I go. I like to surround myself with the things I love. Be it friends, music or a hobby. I'm always up for a good time, and I'm always on the go, but there are times when I like to kick back put me feet up and just relax.
When I moved out on my own it was a decision that I had to make on my own. It's quite possibly the best one I have made in my life. You learn alot living by yourself. About you, about others, and about the world.
I seperate my work life from home life. Right now i'm working two part time jobs just because i haven't done that before. I like both of my jobs. Both are sales jobs, which is ok, but i really want to look into pursuing a future, a job that i would love to go to everyday.
I've always heard that you learn from your mistakes, but if you learn from it is it really a mistake. I think not. I think it's a learning experience. A way to teach us to grow as a person. Failure is just an opportunity to learn something new.
I enjoy the peace and serenity I get from life. Then there are the days that you get the other end of the spectrum. I tend to ignore it, but when it comes to dealing with it, I will stand up and fight for what I believe is right. Life always has a strange way of throwing you a bone.
I'm a Cancer at heart. But, being born close to the Gemini/Cancer cusp, I find myself more of a Gemini on the outside, being twisted and tourtured by the forces of both good and evil. I do have my little Cancerian shell that I do climb into from time to time. Mostly when I have a lot going on and need to get things straightened out.
Things i like to do: Fish, hunt (yes, i kill things, for sport and dinner), ride my bicycle, ride my motorcycle, fixing my motorcycle, hang with my peeps, meet new people, Playing video games, watch movies, eating food, drinking (water, pepsi, tea, coffee, beer, liquor,), being merry, enjoy life (as much as i can).

My Interests

Being independent, believing in my own views, accepting the views of others even if I dont agree with them (because who is really right or wrong), surviving on your own, honesty, integrity, open minded people, strong willed people, valor.

If Dano were a drink they would be:
4 parts affectionate 8 parts loyalty 3 parts athletic

I'd like to meet:

People. Just people. From all walks of life. Any race, religion, heritage, or strange wacky fucked up cult. It doesn't matter. We are still all human. Well, most of us anyway. And i'd like to meet myself in person.
