originality and talent. and kindness.
As of right now I'm 24 years old. I'm picky. (well, 'choosy' is a better word. I'm a neat freak (when I have the chance to be). I'm over America's media-centered culture. I love true culture. I have live plants in my room. I love bonsai trees. I make sushi. I love cats. I LOVE cats.I can proudly say that I can appreciate beauty in most all forms: art, reason, human appearance, and rare life moments. I believe that the God talked about in the Bible exists and is active among those who quiet themselves and listen/submit to him. Such claims are not derived from my human desperation, but from personal experience, of what most atheists would call 'extreme coincidence'. Now, having an every-day, personal, working relationship with this God, I still haven't quite figured out yet.I was raised a christian. Although I have found my own faith. Biblical christianity makes the most practical sense to me. I still I do things I know that I shouldn't, which I conclude as a weakness. I question the definition of sanity. I question our culture's definition of success and happiness. I respectfully question authority as well. I have a long way to go until I'm all grown up, but I'm excited to finally get there. I'm the youngest of 4 boys. I observe and discern more than is healthy for me. My mind tends to warp reality. Sometimes I have to take a step back and gain true perspective. I often pay too much attention to detail. I am a work in progress :pI only keep a few close friends, but am loyal to death and am forever forgiving to them. Deep down inside, I am a family man. I have an acute sense of style. Some call this fashion sense. My closet is color coordinated. I probably have more shoes than you do. I always match. I'm love designer jeans/pants. Screw the materialism of it all. I NEVER EVER pay full price. . Goodwill = Vintage. I do this to express myself. I'm an introvert, except when I am doing what I am most prolific at. Or simply if I decide otherwise.Physical appearance is only a small piece of the pie. I feel that our society is so incredibly numbed to the dangers and hopelessness of lust. I'm a night owl. I would maybe consider myself, at times, to have insomnia. I'm classy, or at least I attempt to be. Silver is my favorite color. I'm a computer nerd. I'm naturally gifted, but have a tendency to rely upon it, and not work at getting better. I have a Roth IRA account. I drive a 1987 Honda Prelude. It's the dopest crappy car ever.This is the box where my most recent updates go
So I've come to a few recent conclusions. I am private person. I am a peace-maker. I am a people pleaser. Don't take advantage of me or you won't ever see me again. I'm a life learner. I will treat you with respect until you prove to me otherwise. I don't like to waste my time investing in something that won't work... with people, relationships, jobs, bands... It takes me awhile to warm up to poeple. Takes me a while to trust someone new. I can be a bit ADD / absent minded at times. Okay alot of the time. Stupidity irritates me. So do lucky people... not fair..I feel that I have met enough individuals to last me this lifetime. I hope to be able to keep up with all these relationships I've had the burden of starting, if not, I apologize... I'm trying!I LOVE CATS:
