About Me


For those who care:
Greetings, my name is Nick and welcome to my MySpace profile. I want to start off by saying that I do not envy one person on this earth nor do I wish to be any different than what I am today. Everything I could truly want or need, I already have: a great family, the best assortment of friends, good health, keen intellect, and a strong devotion to my God. I don’t believe in perceiving life as a pessimist or an optimist, I simply expect the worst and hope for the best. I can’t survive without the love I share with those around me. A simple hug from a close friend has more impact in my life than most can imagine. I believe there is a solution for every problem, and for every negative a positive. There is never enough knowledge a person can have. Life is not black and white, and I despise anyone who tries to see it in that perspective. I love those who think for themselves. I like to be alone every now and then and have some time to myself. I take pleasure in my daily prayers and pseudo-meditation, because, although life is fast, it is nice to slow it down somewhat and set aside time for yourself. Thinking out of the box is definitely a plus. I do not place any meaning in nor get offended when one uses a “curse word”, words are simply words no matter how they are used and it’s trivial to believe that one is worse than another. To get mad at me for using one of these wicked words is petty because you are basing what I say off of some false perception that there are levels of sin or evilness. I fear that too many people I know do not see the big picture, that they base their lives around various, insignificant tasks and activities that do not contribute to their well-being, moral character, knowledge, or overall progression in life. I love talking, just start a conversation with me and you’ll see. I love giving advice; especially if it’s with something I have not yet experienced, so don’t be afraid to ask for some. I suppose I have a good side and bad side, and I would like to think that the good outweighs the bad. I can admit that I have an anger problem, which stems from a short patience. Although I have gone off on a good number of people, I have never fully lashed out at someone. I can hate people (to those who say they can’t really hate anyone) and have probably abused that privilege. Love is a messy thing. I love a handful of people with all my heart: Jessica Murphy, Amanda Herrman, Kara Kimbro, and Molly McDaniel (let’s just call them my “Fab 4”). I do not possess any romantic love for a person, however. I love those 4 because they all make me a better person, each in their own unique way: Jessica – my source of love, Amanda – my source of knowledge and intellect, Kara – my source of moral and spiritual growth, and Molly – my source of comfort and well-being. Although I will not be around those 4 in college, I will not let them go..ever. I foresee myself not getting married in the future, because I have no want or desire to at the moment. I’d much rather take the role of a best friend than a boyfriend, fiancé, or husband. Communication is my most important feature in a relationship (next comes trust). I love laughing and being obnoxious and making people laugh, I especially take pride in seeing someone smile and knowing that I was the cause of it. I take life seriously, but not too seriously. Life is more of a stepping stone to eternal afterlife for me. I enjoy the world I live in, which adds more to my idea of heaven, because if I can somehow find peace and happiness in this world of corruption and sin, then I can’t even begin to describe heaven. I am beginning a life of no fear, because I feel fear goes through the stages of anger and hate before, ultimately, leading to destruction. I am also traveling a new path called college, after departing from my 13 year journey from grade school. I am very open to hearing and trying new ideas and activities, but it doesn’t mean that I will always embrace them as one of my own. Unfortunately, I can’t write forever on this section so I will come to a brief closure point. If you read this entire section, you’ve gained my admiration and my favor, and I must’ve made you read this or you were incredibly bored, because I find it hard to believe anyone has the natural curiosity to know more about me.
For those who don’t really care or know me:
I’m Nick. I’m 5’10 and have blonde hair and blue eyes (as indicated by my pics). I’m going to be attending Tennessee Technological University this fall with a few of my friends and it’ll be my first semester at college, so it should be exciting. I love God, my parents, my friends and family, 24, hockey, games, and music.
