Vision of a child's heart

About Me


My story is much like anyone else's: it has the same start and it will have the same end. What really makes one's story unique is how it's lived out. I'm a Walter Disney's Disneyland fan (I can't help but smile at the Dream which is the "Happiest Place on Earth"), but unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to go nearly as much as I would like. I'm a fan of movies, and I'm almost always up for a movie night. I run an after-school program in at a Sunnyvale elementary school, and I love it! I adore working with children, and I still substitute in a Tiny Tots program in Los Altos (I used to work with Los Altos and San Jose youths in a variety of community recreation programs as well).
I'm still a child at heart with a lot of passion for both life and people who can't standup for themselves. I don't like uneducated ignorance, nor people that like to make fun of people just to get a cheap laugh because they feel insecure about themselves. I'm a guy that will never let my heart "grow up." I believe that some of the best conversations have been the ones without words. I like to realize the past and swim to the future; every moment is the moment you make it. I like to cuddle in the morning and get lost in my dreams at night; now is the appropriate time for everything. I like to lay on the grass and look up at the sky, dreaming of my next wish. I like to lift up fallen hopes, and bring new light into people's hearts. I like the smell of roses, love letters, and just after the rain stops falling. I adore kissing in the rain; it only heightens the ardor of l'amour. I like to be young at heart, and old in mind, passion inspires me. I like the way destiny lets us pick the path to our ending. "Let me pick the path, destiny, because I already know how it's going to end."
When not in school or earning a living, I love taking friends with me to sappy romantic comedies, cheesy suspense/horror movies, and animated movies that remind me of the child I once was. I also like going to see stand-up comedy at the San Jose Improv, and Gabriel Iglesias is always a favorite, and Geoff Keith was pretty funny in the three minutes he was up on stage. Though, if there's no parking near the Improv, we're going to Chili's and then watching Labyrinth on DVD (it's a great movie, I promise).

I'd like to meet:


I'm looking for friends who challenge me but know when to let me be. I love hanging out with small groups of friends, but I also enjoy my privacy and value personal time. I'm looking for someone who basically knows what they want, understands who they are, and doesn't exploit themselves to get what they want. I admire those who not only have respect for other people, but who first and foremost have respect for themselves and, unlike a lot of people whom I've encountered on MySpace, don't exhibit the common attribute of shallowness. I like people who are more interested in helping others rather than harming them, or selfishly helping themselves.

The only way to really get along and have a nurturing relationship is if both are completely secure, honest, and trust one another whole heartedly. I'm being very open here; I can't handle girls who get terribly upset about what their family members said, or did, what grade they got on a paper, or the color of drinking water. We all have personal stuff to deal with, and I will support you the best way I can, but life's too short to focus on the little things.

Within a woman, I'm looking for an exceptionally well-mannered non-smoker who has both a passion for life and people; a dreamer who understands reality, is family oriented. A woman who understands too much makeup often diminishes true beauty. Must be a child at heart, but not childish, with respect for those around her. Who likes conversations, long walks, star gazing, helping others, and Disneyland! A well tempered woman who understands that yelling only makes an argument into a fight.
