Starving Artist ("Will Work for Art Supplies" [copyrighted Primal Instincts 1997], "Blank Surface, Must Draw!" [copyrighted Primal Instincts], "Don't Drink and Draw" [copyrighted Fred Babb]), Love to draw, large, small, You name it. Designed many tats for friends and coworkers. I enjoy Painting as well. Have a decent Camera Set up, lots of photo inspiration, many ideas yet to realize in print. I find Sculpture very, very relaxing and also have many ideas for that. Want to get more involved in Carving, haven't done much lately. Also Digital Art, and collage/montages. Wide Eyed Optimist. Want to get more into Rock Climbing, Love Nature (hiking, relaxed swimming, just sitting in the sun, camping, ALTHOUGH- all of these i have not had much time to do). LOVE ROAD TRIPS!!!!!
I love to meet people with skill, a good strong sense of humor (I prefer laughing, less sarcastic) and who are open minded. Why that last part? I sometimes break conventional rules, and I need open minded people around me who can accept me like that. I very much believe in friendships. It is a level of dedication that can last years. I'm not looking for someone to support me, but I don't seek to support a guy either (Not that I could afford to right now). People who have energy are great to have around. I like adventuresome people as well. And guys, wake up! Girls don't always have to make the first move. A little insight into my Dream guy- Talented, creative (thats a biggie) driven, likes to travel, knows how to use his hands, can be gentle, but also knows how to use his strengths. Can give a little direction as to what he is thinking, and tell me without a doubt what he wants when I am unsure of where to go. HONEST, VERY HONEST... If there is no truth, then the whole foundation is false. I'll still be there for someone after a break up, I'm still friends with nearly every ex I have. I was recently told (and not for the first time) that I am just about everything my guy could want, but somehow it's not what he wants. I keep thinking of that song "Everything You Want"... I have also been told (several times) that I drive my friends and loved ones to seek to excel in their own lives, to improve and become better. When people keep tell me I deserve so much better, I wonder how to respond to that, particularly if I hear that from someone I am dating.Advanced Global Personality Test Results

What Is Your Seduction Style?
Linkin Park, Evanessence, 99.1 WHFS (Oh how I miss it!- made it to most of the HFStivals), DC101, 98 rock, in that order. I love live music (yes- even cover bands)- Deadlock, Juiced, Jah Works, Reagan Years, Thrill (have you ever seen the way the singer from thrill plays to the crowd and microphone? very charismatic), Crushing Day, Steam Roller Picnic, Stiff Richard. I go to Padonia Station a lot for the live bands on Sat Nights. Love Techno, Electronica, Dance Music, recently turned on to industrial. Not too long ago, one of my friends, Ray turned me onto Depeche Mode...I gotta get "Strangelove" by them...
Wedding Crashers, Crazy People, Couch Trip, Memento, Silence of the Lambs, The Usual Suspects, The Ring, Identity (Can you tell I love thrillers, and anything with Kevin Spacey, and laugh-so-hard-you-snort comedies?), Also love Nothing to lose, Whole Nine Yards, and Whole Ten Yards, and some other Matthew Perry movies, bad boys I and II, Jackie Chan movies, Shawshank Redemption, Steve Martin, YES I like Vin Diesel (especially in that one "Pitch Black" I think its called, very awesome), Rebecca Demornay, Gweneth Paltrow, I like some Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, in general I love most movies, but aim toward ones that have somethign extra to offer, such as a mind-twist.
Scrubs (Oh Oh Oh I love scrubs), Sex and the City ("He's just not that into you!" and yes Ben I know you can barely forgive me for liking that one), Friends, 24, Nip/Tuck, Prison Break, and always Discovery Channel and even the History Channel.
I read a ton, and probably have enough books to start a small library. I also research things when im interested, so a lot of reference material too. I study cultures and languages, particularly love Italy. I love Robert Heinlein, Grisholm, thank the powers that be for MAXIM, awesome magazine, wish they had something comparable for women. Also read a lot of Mythology, all kinds, and read up on oh, just about everything else too.
Leonardo DaVinci (amazing and rather insane man), Angelina Jolie (I know it sounds cliche to like her but I like her for her oddness and self-determination, she knows she's not perfect but she keeps trying to be amazing and keeps trying to live up to her own high life-standards), Katherine Hepburn, Ayla, Kathryn Chase (fictional), Gwendolyn Sadie Novak Ames (also fictional). I don't judge people so much by their negative deeds, and I am aware some of the people I mentioned did some rotten things. I think there is a level of redemption (in the non-religious sense) when someone can bring great amounts of good with the bad. Typically the good lasts a longer time, and the bad (except in some cases) ends and can be surpassed.
