About Me

Sam Trout, art geek. Lover not a fighter. I find the good and the bad in everyone and posess an acute sence of perception. I believe life is a positive experience and that we can all learn whatever we're interested in. I love late nights and late mornings but don't get the chance for them very often. However I'm currently finding pleasure in occasionally going to bed before 10PM. A work-a-holic by nature, a lover of leisure by pleasure. I'm currently finding awe in the world around me, learning how to balance my life, cook, play music, be in a relationship without baggage and make some really great friends.As for career, I design clothes, promotional materials, and life around me.

My Interests

Art, music, learning, cooking, socializing, dancing, my dog, physical activity, self improvement and above all, an enjoyable living experience.

I'd like to meet:

I'm always looking for people who can inspire me or hire me. People who lead interesting lives, view the world around them in a unique way and can bring delightful conversation and exploration to any situation. People who are unafraid to try new things even if it means not doing them well. Positive, creative minds that love interaction, really good conversation and life in general.NEW WEB STORE FOR MY T-SHIRTS:http://samtrout.ecrater.com/.. -- BEGIN: Constant Contact Stylish Email Newsletter Form -- Sign up for the Sam Trout Email Newsletter .. -- END: Constant Contact Stylish Email Newsletter Form -- .. -- BEGIN: SafeSubscribe -- .. -- END: SafeSubscribe --.. -- BEGIN: Email Marketing you can trust -- For Email Marketing you can trust .. -- END: Email Marketing you can trust --
