FOOTBALL! Doesn't matter what level, I just love the sport. The Tampa Bay Bucaneers, San Francisco 49ers, Golden State Warriors, Oakland A's, and any San Diego State athletic team. Painting myself for State games, you can say that I get a little to into the games sometimes. Tailgating before State games. Traveling, even if I could travel everyday of my life I still wouldn't be able to see everything I want to see. Basketball, college more so than NBA. March Madness (Best sporting event) Yes, even better than the Super Bowl, except when the Bucaneers or 49ers are in it. Swimming, tennis, you get the point sports! Vegas Trips! Creating experiences that I will never forget with the people that I care about. Learning about why we are here and why the way things are the way they are. Yoga, meditation, reiki, etc. (any spiritual pursuits). Ancient Egypt, I'm fascinated by everything about it. Ancient civilizations and history in general. They were way more advanced than we give them credit for, to summarize it. My relationships with my family and friends are the most important things in my life. Especially my relationship with my brother and sisters. Stork, super midge, and smock. My fraternity Kappa Sigma, Epsilon Iota chapter. Of course, video games and computer games never get old. Reading. I love hiking, camping, mountain biking, anything having to do with nature and the outdoors. The state of world affairs and what is going on around me. Come on people there is life outside of your little bubble and you need to be aware of the events that are taking place around you. They do effect you. (My bubble was Moraga and the Bay Area) I love Moraga and the Bay and plan to go back there but the best thing I ever did was leave my comfort zone and expand my horizons, so to speak. Educating and Enlightening myself. Experiencing new cultures, meeting new and interesting people from all over the world, and learning new things, anything! Living in the moment. Consciously creating my own reality!
I'd like to meet:
Old friends Ive lost touch with. People who like what they've read here. Anyone that can offer me some intellectually stimulating conversation or thoughts.This is important to remember, especially now."THOSE WHO WOULD SACRIFICE LIBERTY FOR SECURITY DESERVE NEITHER AND WILL LOSE BOTH." Benjamin Franklin
Music:
I like pretty much all types of music. Not a big fan of country though, sorry. The mood I'm in usually dictates what kind of music I want to listen to. Frank Sinatra is one of my favorites. Anybody who's been in my car knows that already though. Fort Minor is a great group as well and they have some great songs. Feels like home, be somebody, and kenji. Along with the great beats and flow the message in their songs makes their music stand out above all the others Ive heard. Check it out. Sashamon, Cafe Del Mar, Atmosphere, Living Legends.... The Trish Harris Band! Check her out on myspace music or look for her touring the country.

Books:
I have a new found passion for reading ever since I graduated from college and don't have to read finance books anymore. Thank God! My favorite book is Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield. I don't usually like fiction books, but this one is amazing. It is historical fiction and based on the battle of thermopalye and the spartan 300. I find it extremely interesting because I am a huge history buff and this battle changed the course of history. Anyways its an amazing book and I highly recommend it. I love reading books on current events, spirituality, or anything having to do with history. A few good books are Guns, Germs, and Steel, The Hiram Key, The Book of Hiram, Uriel's Machine, The House of Bush House of Saud, The Secret of Shambahla, The Celestine Prophecy, The Things they Carried, and Rule by Secrecy. The Seekers. It is an amazing book and I highly recommend everyone read it. Freedom, by Osho, is another great book with some great concepts and outlooks on life."The goal of life is living in agreement with nature" Zeno Greece circa 300 B.C."We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it." Edward R. Murrow"You don't get another life like this one. You will never again play this role and experience this life as it's been given to you. You will never again experience the world as in this life, in this set of circumstances in quite this way, with these parents, children, and families. You will never have quite this set of friends again. You will never expereience the earth with all its wonders in this time again. Don't wait for one last look at the ocean, the sky, the stars, or a loved one. Go look now."
Heroes:
Anybody who helps improve the quality of life on this planet. Both for human beings and all the other organisms we share it with! My Oma (that is grandmother in Dutch for those of you who didnt know)
