Its not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.

About Me

I have things I want to say about myself, but then I think I'd be full of myself if I said it all. I'll say a little bit. I think I'm a pretty dorky and funny guy. I'm all about being positive and happy as much as I can be. I know no one can always be happy about everything and positive about every situation, but I try the best I can, and it makes my life a whole lot better. My life is going pretty awesome right now. I moved from San Diego up to San Francisco for a few weeks, then back here to good ol' Mesquite. A lot of people hate it here, but I love it. Half the people I talk to say they hate it, but they don't move. I was in San Diego of all places and enjoy it better here, go figure.
Right when I moved back, I got my old job back, along with more hours than I used to have. Now I'm working at State Farm for the agent here in Mesquite. I'm really enjoying it. I never thought I would enjoy something like this, but I am! The main thing you do is help people. Yeah, there's the technical insurance stuff you learn, but after that it's just about being there for your people when they need you. I may do this the rest of my life, I may not. But I'm having fun right now. It's not about the destination, it's about the journey.
I dunno... every day is another reminder of something. Every situation is another lesson to be learned. Where do we stop? When do we learn what we need to learn and stop? And, if we get there, what do we do afterwards? Is there true love? Or is it a choice? Emotional infatuation is too unstable to trust. Love needs to be based on something more reliable. But then, doesn't that take the fun out of it? If I love the person I'm with, how do I know I'm not missing something? I think if you put your whole heart into a relationship and try to stop thinking about those things, you will have the time of your life. Love at first sight? Not hardly. How could there be such a thing? Without knowing the person at least to some degree other than looks and a smile... And if you believe in love at first sight, then you find that person isn't who you thought they were, will you be too scared to admit you made a mistake? If things are obviously going horribly wrong, and you need to get out of the situation, will your belief in true love blind you into fear of staying with that person? These questions of life are hard to answer. The only answer I can give is to ask God to give you your own answer, the one that works for you in that moment.
We argue with each other, yet we're all right, and we're all wrong. The more I know I know, the more I know I don't know. "I am wiser than some, because I know that I do not know." - Socrates

My Interests

Watching movies, hanging out with friends and family, and trying to enjoy what I have. What I really want to do is buy a house soon and start saving up to invest. I'm thinking of getting in real estate investments, but the market is scary right now. But I have to start somewhere.


.. You scored as Natural Causes. Your death will be by natural causes, though not by any diseaese, because that is another option on this test. You will probably just silently pass away in the night from old age, and people you love won't realize until the next morning, when you are all purple and cold and icky. So be happy, you won't be murdered.

How Will You Die??
created with QuizFarm.com

I'd like to meet:

Whoever comes my way. But if I were to choose, I want to meet people who are on and aware of their spiritual journey in life. There is a lot of wisdom out there that is being wasted. But then again, if I meet people who aren't doing to well, maybe I'm in there life at that moment to help them on their journey.

The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful...

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted. What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Music:

Cold, Chevelle, The Used, Linkin Park, Trapt, Adema, Hoobastank, Alien Ant Farm, Saliva, Jimmy Eat World, P.O.D., Good Charlotte, Aphasia, Akon, Eminem, and T-Pain. There's a lot more, but who can remember them all?

Movies:

Batman Returns, Talladega Nights, The Matrix... I could go on for a long time. Any movie that has a great meaning that can keep me interested or that can make me laugh to the point of pissing my pants.
Your Icecream Flavour is... Chocolate! You are the all time favorite, chocolate! Turning white kids black since the 1800s. Staining carpets, car seats, and bed sheets for centuries. One thing is for sure, you will never go out of style. You can't go wrong with chocolate! What is your Icecream Flavour?

Television:

Lost and Nip/Tuck. I used to not watch TV, but my brother got cable. I admit I got a little sucked into it at first, but I'm trying to get away from it. Now I limit myself to the two shows I watch and of course football.

Your Pimp Name Is...
His Majesty Dynamite What's Your Pimp Name?

Books:

The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons, Deception Point and Digital Fortress. Those are the last few books I read, which was a while ago. I'm not much of a reader anymore other than Maxim and Men's Health.

Heroes:

Jesus and my mom top out the list - also anybody out there that can put their insecurities aside and ask God for help. And those single dads and single moms who have to go through life caring for someone else without any help are true inspiration. All the single moms and dads out there: you don't have to be perfect! Ask God to help you, and do the best you can. The situation you're in now will make you a much stronger person.

Wow.  I realized how much I feel like I need to be in control of certain situations.  Like, for instance, I rarely ever tell a girl how I feel because then I think she's in control.  We...
