About Me

EDIT/// I'm engaged. I'd link it be he doesn't have a MySpace, which probably makes him smarter than the rest of us///EDIT

Okay, this is a quick snapshot of me in a really sloppy format in no particular order, though the things at the beginning are what I could think of first.

Things I like: movies, restaurants, music, drawing, photography, stand up comedy, nice clothes, warm places, coral nail polish, soundtracks, netspeak, video games (mostly Halo, Gears of War, Grand Theft, and Donkey Kong Country), TV, sleeping, driving through cities at night, road trips, camping, huge RVs, muscle cars, mansions, kitty cats, dogs, snakes, Harry Potter, Prison Break, Breaking Bad.

Things I don’t like: being frumpy, my car being a twat, really bad movies, expensive movie tickets, emo/indi shit, compromise for a particular style or fashion, not having enough money to survive on my own, being ignored by people I care about(I hate being ignored so much because I try really hard not to ignore people myself), people who are mean for no reason, being in an ornery snit, being angry and loosing my temper, not being able to go out to dinner, elitists, people who won’t get off their fucking phone.

Good things about me: Fairly intelligent, the ability to adapt (when I feel like it), artistic, caring, good listener, fairly drama free (until recently), generous (when I feel like it), accepting, daydreamer, self conscious, disease free (yay!), completely dorky, hopeful for the future.

Bad things about me: Temperamental and moody (though I try not to cause drama), ornery, sometime employs a “scorched earth” policy, kind of selfish (though if I really care this is not the case at all), sometimes lies (but it depends on who it is I am lying to, because some people I just wouldn’t), sometimes sneaky and underhanded, nasty when backed into a corner, impatient.

Things I want to do: Go back to film school, get married next year(currently engaged), explore all my creative avenues, be someone who people go to for advice, travel some more, live in interesting places, make some new friends, sometime soon have a job where I can support myself (have an application into the Operating Engineer's Union), be a ridiculously wealthy land baron (unlikely, but I can try :P), buy a castle in Europe so I can have really stupid themed parties, learn to show up on time (though I’m rarely later than 15min), graduate from college, get a masters, eventually teach at a university or high school. Oh yeah, I also want to be in Harry Potter land (but that doesn’t seem very feasible), instead I'll settle for Prison Break land.

If you are interested in any of my art or photography, it's at my deviantART account.
