Meskel

I want to live life to its fullest. I want to laugh , because kindness and laughter are contagious and good for the soul. I want to love , because most of life's problems would be solved if we all spent more time giving, spreading and making love. I want to learn from the many experiences life has to offer.
When it rains it pours, so let the good times rain down upon us.
I'm a musician and enjoy playing my saxophone. I enjoy a good cup a coffee. I love living the green but rainy Pacific Northwest. I enjoy a good microbrew beer. I like stimulating conversation, literature, the performing arts, and good wine. At the same time I love lowbrow humor. I'm a bit of a treehugger. I'm very interested in studying world religions and cultures.
I enjoy being downtown in the middle of everything happening and people watching. I also like to travel through the various neighborhoods of Portland and seeing all the sights the city has to offer. I enjoy being out of the city in the country or up in the mountains and taking in the peace that it has to offer, or looking onto everything from up high and breathing in the serenity of being far away from everything yet being close enough to feel the energy of civilization.
In my free time I hang out with my friends. I tend to surround myself with fellow musicians and other artists (who tend to be a bit on the eccentric side), but I'm a friendly person and enjoy sounding myself with an ecelctic mixture of people.
While I have little faith in our country's administration and oppose the war in Iraq as well as being an advocate for peace, I'm proud to be a soldier and serve the people of the US by being in the US Army.
I'm a music student who is working toward becoming a teacher.
I support equal rights for all people regardless of sexual preference, race, religion, gender or social status.

Chocolate or Vanilla peanut butter
Hot Chocolate or Coffee: What sort of a stupid question is that?
Kiss or Hug: both at the same time.
Dog or Cat: Dogs are my favorite, but I am not opposed to cats. The cool thing about cats is that they are the answer to finding a clean form of energy. You see, if you take a buttered piece of toast (which always lands butter side down) and strap it to the back of a cat (which always lands feet first) it will hover and spin above the ground. This energy can be harnessed and used to supply the earth with pollution free energy.

Love or Money: Money won't give you true happiness. Love (platonic, familial, romantic, etc.) is the best thing in life. However, I'm really broke right now and could use some money. Maybe I can sell some lovin' for money. Any takers?

Style: I like any style as long as it isn't the whole "I went to the mall today to buy a skirt then get my nails done, get my hair bleached, buy more makeup then spend 4 hours in a tanning bed" look. It is a turn off when women are fake looking (I like natural beauty). I also don't dig the whole wearing a skirt over jeans thing. It just confuses me, I don't understand it.
