Nothing Too Much

About Me

I'm a high school teacher currently on a leave of absence to get a degree in Classics and Latin. I've taught Spanish, English, and History & I was a Korean Linguist in the Army for 4 years. I like Football and love Basketball. I'm probably a little too much on the serious side, but I'm pretty loyal and good-hearted.

My Interests

Greek & Latin literature or History; Football & Basketball; Dancing & Clubbing; Movies and Theatre. I'd like to take up Kayaking and Ballroom Dancing, but I've never gotten around to it.

I'd like to meet:

I like witty, intelligent people who can hold up a conversation, and still have a lot of fun. I like people who make me laugh and people who think about the larger world and how to make it better. I can't stand people who don't take charge or responsibility for their own life.

Music:

Dido, Evanescence, Alanis, Rush, old school U2, Enigma, Dar Williams, Cowboy Junkies, Spanish music of all stripes and occasionally, but not often, I go through a pop country phase.

Movies:

The Mission; Last Boy Scout; Chasing Amy; Primary Colors; Training Day; Traffic; Blade Runner; Last of the Mohicans; 13th Warrior

Television:
