About Me



Okay, well I think it is a little difficult to write about yourself, but I'll try. I graduated from FSU in April 2005 (Okay, that part wasn't hard because it was factual). I moved to Germany in the beginning of August, 2005 to teach English. I studied German in high school and in college, so I decided to move there to work on my fluency and experience the culture for more than a 3 week period on vacation. My major at FSU was Psychology and I didn't really know what to do after school, so I thought that would be a good opportunity. I had to get it out of my system while I was young! I think I am a fun person to hang out with and pretty funny too. I love laughing, and I find inappropriate humor especially amusing! Sometimes I can be a little vulgar or gross. But my friends know that that's just me (and sometimes it can be very addictive). Hang around me too long and you'll find yourself shouting out gross obscenities for no reason. But I must say that I think I am a good friend. I've learned over the years the meaning of true friendship, and I don't take my friends for granted. I've made some really good friends in my life, and you guys know who you are! Okay, so enough sappy shit about friends. Living abroad made me realize that Florida isn't so bad and the warm weather and the BEACH are great! Finally, I think it is important to take risks in life. Do things that people only talk about, or that you don't think you would normally do. Even if it doesn't work out the way you planned, you gain experience and knowledge. In the future, you would be surprised at how proud of yourself you are for taking these risks. Okay, I sound like an old man now. I need to stop. I'm rambling!

My Interests

I like learning German. Obviously, since I moved to Germany. I like to read, but don't do it enough. I love sailing and being out on the water. I like doing pretty much anything as long as I'm with friends or family. We always make things exciting. Even if we aren't doing anything. OHH! And how could I forget?! My favorite thing to do EVER is play pool. I could play non-stop. Drinking beer and playing pool with friends (friends who can actually play) is like Heaven for me!

Music:

I am a huge Classic Rock fan. Tom Petty, The Doors, The Eagles, Bob Seger ("Turn the Page" is probably the best song of all times), Guns & Roses. I like Elton John, Eric Clapton. I also like younger artists like Beyoncé, Pink, Robbie Williams. It's just too hard to think of all of them when you have to!

Movies:

I love me some foreign films! It is rare that I see a foreign film that I don't like. I'm not sure what it is, but they always seem to be well done. For example, my favorite is a German film called "The Warrior and the Princess ("Der Krieger und die Kaiserin")." Other than that, I like suspense and Thriller films that are well done. "Misery" for example, or even the remake of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre." As gory as it was, the acting was great and it really makes you feel genuinely horrified. Now I sound like a freak. Also, one of my favorites is "Requiem for a Dream." Anyway, I do like films that are sensless sometimes. Movies that you can just sit down and veg-out and laugh to. "40 Year-old Virgin" is HYSTERICAL! I do NOT, however, like fantasy movies, or sci-fi. Sorry, but "Harry Potter," "Lord of the Rings," and "X-Men" just DO NOT do it for me! P.S. If you say I look like Harry Potter, I'll punch you in the face!

Television:

I don't watch too much TV. I like shows like "Nip/Tuck," but my work schedule never allows me to get into them. I found that I actually like the show "Becker." I don't know how that happened. "Reba" is funny. Basically, if I watch TV, I watch the CW18 (formerly WB18) line-up. Except I don't watch shows like "One Tree Hill." Those bore me...

Books:

"Fahrenheit 451" is my favorite book. "Of Mice and Men" is really good, too.
