Intellectualism with Attitude

About Me

I am an intellectual with attitude, a scholar-athlete, a warrior-nerd, a philosopher with the ability to rock out! I have graduated from the University of Idaho with a BA in History and Philosophy. I'll be studying for an MA in Philosophy starting in the fall. It's my ultimate goal to go to law school, which I view as my ticket to an intellectually exciting job. Something relatively dramatic, at least; I need a constant infusion of novelty, or I start to die the horrible death of intellectual stagnation! I'm a bit of an exercise nut, as I lift weights, run, swim, golf, and will start studying martial arts in the fall. I'm also slightly obsessive about various non-popular forms of music. Beyond that, I'm ultimately interested in infusing life with profundity and meaning.

My Interests

Music, Philosophy, Law, History, Karate, Running, Weightlifting, Profundity

I'd like to meet:

I have plenty of friends. I like meeting new ones, of course. I love to be sociable and hang out with new people, but it's not ultimately necessary. I have long since learned how to be happy on my own. Who I really want to meet is the woman who makes me want to make a fool out of myself to win her heart. And perhaps I've already met her - I know of at least three that I go head-over-heels for already.
