I am here for Friends

About Me

What to say about me.. hmmmm *scratches head* I guess I'll start by introducing myself... My name is Dan, I'm 23 and I live in Holland which kinda sucks because my lovely girlfriend Phuong is in Vietnam... She's arguably the coolest person I've ever met and my bestest friend in the whole world. My dad is Italian and my mom is Vietnamese and I've spent the past 20 + years of my life traveling. My dad works for an oil company so I've been blessed with the privilage of having lived all over the world. I've got a ton of funny anecdotes to share so if you're game drop me a message and we'll exchange war stories. Those who know me will agree that I'm silly, kinda crazy, extremely cheerful and that I like to make people laugh by being my goofy ass self =D although I can be serious when the occasion calls for it. I love to talk, I love to listen and I'll try most things once and I definitely want to scuba dive, bunji jump and sky dive before I die. Did I mention I'm a Jesus freak? yup... that's right I'm one of those people that's not ashamed of going up to random strangers to ask them in a southern hick accent "excuse me, do you know Jesus?". It's actually pretty funny to see how people react. On the same note I think religious intollerance is stupid and Christians (including myself) need to get their crap togeather and start spreading love and not hatred for a change. It's not called the Good News for nothing... Jesus didn't come to condemn the unrighteous... He came to uplift them and to bring peace love and joy in their lives, like He brought peace life and joy in my life... It's all about the love! Jesus loves y'all :) Myspace Layouts and SO much more from WhateverLife.com! ♥

Daniel... God is my Judge...

I found out some time ago that my name, Daniel, actually holds a deep and somewhat mystical meaning behind the string of vowels and consonants that come together to form it. Daniel in Hebrew means "Go...
