I like looking at things with fresh perspectives. I like self-improvement. I like team competition. I like helping people by using my own strengths. I wish I could play chess more often. I enjoy poker as a substitute. I want to go back to school, if not for any reason other than to never stop learning. I enjoy long conversations that ramble between topics.
I'd like to meet:
People who value their own identity more than someone else's imagery.
"I don't want a pretty face to tell me pretty lies." - Billy Joel
Why sell yourself for somebody who can't buy themself?
Do you see my friends list cluttered by slutty, ignorant, immature, shallow, overly obsessive or all-around unsavory people? Do you see me top-listing a harem of barely 18 mirror portraiters in training bras and lip-gloss? Do you see me as somebody who has that lifestyle? I don't think you see yourself that way either. If you have a good heart and the time to be a friend, I'd love to have you as one.
I like it when people challenge me. I like assertive people who are not afraid to suggest that I am wrong. I like people who will give specific criticism even better, of course this all requires paying attention.
The whole idea of identifying who I want to meet is odd, because really all I want to do is know people and meetng is only the first step. While I'd like to meet people worth knowing, I'd sooner skip the meeting and start with the living as friends.

Music:
Life is senses and music is noise
Life is senseless and music is poise
Life is over and music is sweet
Life is a brother and music is meat
Life is intense and music is filling
Life is expensive and music is killing
