I've felt a continued hunger to meet a fuzzy, furry, collar-wearing drummer. He must have an incessant need for uncontrollable screaming, eating, and general chaos. He must like to throw paint, mess things up, and melt stuff. The person I'm thinking of must also have starred in a Weezer video. As you read this, you're probably thinking, "oh, that sounds like Animal from The Muppets." And you'd be right. I'd like to meet him.
On a serious note: The word "meet" isn't adequate in this section, because I love to meet anyone who is different than me, which is everyone. More specifically, I'd like to become friends with anyone who knows who they are and what they want. I respect anyone who is self-aware enough to be self-confident; meaning they're confident, despite knowing both they're strengths and weaknesses. I like to meet anyone who can hold a conversation, anyone who has an opinion about something, but loves to hear others' opinions more than they like speaking their own. That's a rare find; a person who likes to hear what others have to say more than they like hearing themselves speak. The word "mature" is interpreted far too loosely in this world, so I won't say I'd to meet someone mature, because everyone likes to think they're mature...even me.
I just met and had a photo shoot with Abbie Warnock, who's now on my friends list. By the way, I recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer (you're welcome Abs). She's an amazingly interesting person; she's got an incredible balance of humor, style, and professionalism. She's the archetype of people I like to meet; someone who has found what they love to do in life, is passionate about it, and is excelling at it. My brother, dachaps is like that. He is in finances and is extremely knowledgable and passionate about it; and, by the way I also recommend him to anyone, whether you have a lot of money, or not. (You're welcome Chappy).
Does anyone else think that being fiercely loyal is important? I respect people who keep their word. It's an increasingly rare thing to find someone who does what they say they're going to do. It seems so simple and cliche, but people with honor truly are in the minority nowadays. Also cliche but true: I love optimists. It's a rare thing to hear someone talk about a bad day and find yourself wanting to hear more because of the way they packaged their words. You can say the exact same thing an infinite number of ways (we learn that in acting). So if that's the case, then be positive; it's a learned skill.
I respect people who love God more than others, others more than themselves, and who can see the truth in and apply all criticism given them, whether good or bad (we're taught that in ballroom, whether we learn it or not). I want to meet someone who is spiritually in tune, fears God more than man, and who is pursuing ambitious dreams.
