About Me

Carl Jung once said, "He who looks outside dreams but he who looks inside becomes enlightened." And I think that quote has best described me over the past couple years. I am on a constant journey of self exploration. Until I see evidence to the contrary, we only have one life and I aim to live it.
I just moved back to Des Moines after being away for 5 years. Really just looking to meet some interesting people outside of being a full time student, working full time, and playing in a band. And then pursuing all the other things that I become interested in.
I'm a proto-typical nonconformist and a vacuous soldier of the thrift store gestapo. I have nothing to say for myself.
Her: "What are you some sort of gypsy?"
Me: "Well.. kind of.."
Her: "Well if you're not a gypsy, are you a pirate?"
Me: "That too.. I'm a gypsy pirate"
"I'm looking for one of those 'dare-to-be' great situations" - John Cusack's character in Say Anything
I'm still crazy enough to think that I can grow up and be a millionaire philanthropist and politician. Dad told me I could do whatever I wanted as long as I used my brain to rely on. I'm very excited about the next decade and hope to end it with my retirement.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I love interesting people. People with a story. If you can tell me an interesting and pithy story that has some sort of greater implication, I'll be enthralled.
In women, I've found that I really like headstrong girls and will tend to gravitate more naturally towards them. I'm an ENFP so what I'm really hoping to find my diamond in the rough INTJ.
I won't date a girl who is bothered by my spiritual views(Eastern/Taoist), has trouble conveying her intelligence, and can't party like it's 1999.
If you have a propensity to lie and be a destructive person, leech on someone else's positive energy because I don't need it.
But if you are chill, here are some ideas on things to message me about:
If you had a million bucks, what would you do with it?
Tell me about a time you were totally afraid you'd fail at something and come out with an even better outcome than you thought was possible.
Give me a suggestion on improving my profile.
Tell me the single most awesome thing about you and why.
