I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

i like some people. and am curious about most. i am passionate about observing, conversing, photographing, touching and connecting with them. i love being smitten. i find certain things sensational in the tingly sort of way... such as, folding a hot t shirt straight from the dryer, eating watermelon, walking under overcast skies, escapades in the rain, buying produce, picking granola from Mothers Market, the perfect tortilla chip in the perfect salsa, "towel time", ROME, laying on the floor, old bookstores, developing black and white film in a dark room, airports, soiling eager paper with black ink, brown rice and peanut butter eaten minus clothing with chopsticks in the kitchen, socks, Ciara- enough said, wearing mittens for hours and the feeling of just taking them off, finding lips that fit perfectly with mine, and then making out for hours, chewing cinamon gum while working out, being in constant anticipation and exchanging words/emotions with Adam for 10 hours at a time, being awesome with Joe anywhere (because we make a hell of a team) and being at the TROUBADOUR. i miss the significant M's-Movies/Matt/Marix. i find it somewhat easy to be intrigued and stimulated by someone, but maintaining the interest seems to be my problem. i lose interest far too fast. i like green tea. i have just come to the realization that grapefruit is by far my most favorite fruit. by default i have said "strawberries" for the last 20 or so years. i love the past, and more so other people's pasts. i am intrigued by the cult of ISIS, ancient Egyptian and Greek civilization, culture and mythology. i can get lost in analyzation and reflection. i love traveling. i am honest to a fault. i am long winded and easily self disclosing. i am comfortable in the temporary and i fear commitment and permanence but at the same time strive for stability, marriage frightens me in the same regard making weekend plans do. i am not religious but am extremely intrigued by the concept of religion. i both fear and love the human mind and the strength and extreme weakness of a group of minds interacting together. i was a sociology major. i love writing as means of a mental purge but also the actual act of writing. i love looking at people's handwriting. i am vegetarian, kinda. i don't like birds, they are disgusting creatures. so i wont eat them, and i hate fish, but i am okay with consuming some. i am not hard to read, just extremely fluid and quite contradictory. I love movies and music, and the people who make them. I LOVE MY FAMILY which includes my friends, all the same. I tend to have temporary obsessions, and lots of them...I am a bit neurotic at times. I romanticize life. but can be a bit cynical, i like to think of it as questioning society and reality. I am not so fond of chocolate and I don't drink coffee and i must add tabasco and or cholula to ketchup. I like black and white print, and silent film. Although I am a fan of color and sound as well. photography and other mediums of art. I am interested in THE PARANOID CRITICAL TRANSFORMATION METHOD (DALI). I always want thin crust pizza with pineapple and jalapenos. I always seem to be living in liminal space, but i like it that way. I plan to live in Greece sometime in the future, break plates, and view my surroundings only with the light of fire and fall in love a few times a year...
