About Me

I'm left-handed, but I do sports and some other stuff right-handed. I'm addicted to Threadless . A lot of people tell me I look like Ben Stiller, but I don't see it. I am not often early for things. I like to cuddle. I like to pay for music, but it doesn't always work that way. I love Curious George. Yeah, I'm kind of a big kid, I'll probably never really grow up. I drive an RSX Type-S that I love. There are a lot of times where I can't help myself from smiling, even if I'm upset. I went to school for advertising and marketing. I know a lot about computers as well. I can't sit perfectly still for more than fifteen minutes, if that. I tend to have a lot of energy. I find that nice guys finish last (prove me wrong). I'm in no rush to grow up, but I'm not some immature idiot. I'm lactose intolerant. I hate milk, except in my cereal, but I love cheese and other dairy stuff. I love Giordano's pizza in Chicago. I'm kinda bad with directions, I prefer landmarks in favor of roads. I get bored easily, yet I'm also easily amused. I really enjoy talking with people. I hate cold and wet weather. I love to drive. I recycle and so should you. Stickers and t-shirts are supercool. I think I'm pretty down-to-earth. I have a lot of stuff and it's all pretty cluttered, but I'm a really clean person. I really like the word "turbo," even though it's not really a word. I hate getting ready for bed. In fact, I don't really like sleep (until I have to get out of bed in the morning) and I wouldn't do it if it wasn't necessary. It drives me nuts when people chew their food loudly. I enjoy hands-on things like working on cars and fun art projects. Well, you already know quite a bit from all this other stuff I managed to fill in here. Feel free to message me and we'll get to chatting and it'll be awesome and if you like, you can learn a thing or two about me. Also, check out my photos on Flickr , they're rad. I have a portfolio/resume site for my advertising stuff as well, www.OhLookItsBrett.com .
