I'd like to meet:
I'd like to meet someone of any gender who is creative, excited about whatever they do, and is not opposed to giving out or recieving hugs often. I'd like to meet someone who reads, wants to become an expert on something, and DOESN'T enjoy beating crap up with baseball bats at drunken frat parties. If you are bilingual (includes programming languages!), you're awesome++. If you are a writer, artist, musician, or a fan of henry james, you've got bonus points.
Message me with something other than "How r U" or "omg, hot kitty" and strike up an intelligent conversation about something you think I'll think is cool, and you win! feel free to IM me on my already spam-plagued-but-still-active MSN account: [email protected]
