About Me



Loli-Train... only in Japan
;-P

I enjoy going on random adventures to far away places

I enjoy occasionally going to shows, but I can't drop everything on a weekday just to go to one like I used to when I was still in school

I currently work full time for an international corporation, and I'm trying to pay off my undergraduate college debts so that I can go back to school for a graduate degree

I've always been a dreamer, and it seems to get me into more ill-fated situations than I care to admit

If you wrong me in any way, I'm not afraid to tell you straight to your face how you made me feel

I'm not a musician

I'm not an artist

I don't pretend to be something I'm not

…I am me. If you were to give me a chance, you may be pleasantly surprised at how much you would enjoy yourself around me. You can ask any of the people in my top 8… they've known me for years and they can vouch for me. I've been told that I'm a nice guy. Honestly I think I'm friendly, trustworthy, fun-loving and open-minded, but don't just take my word for it. Talk to me and find out. I like meeting new people, so add me to your profile or send me a message.

In case you didn't notice it when you first clicked on my profile, I'm 26 years old. No joke.

cxc for life. (It's an inside joke.)

Ninjas or Pirates

Which group would win in an epic "Gangs of New York" type of battle? Ninjas or pirates? I would put my money on ninjas... but that's only my opinion.
