i'm dutch/irish. my dad's grandfather was born in holland. supposedly this means if i lean dutch i can become a dutch citizen. ik ben nederlander. ireland's one of the greenest countries i've ever seen. there are more people of irish decent living in various countries throughout the world than there are citizens of ireland, and we all like to drink together. i lived in england for two years. i came back home with the relization that travel is addictive, and i am hooked. i lived 45 minutes away from london and i was there everyweekend. no city in the world has better public transportation. i've snowboarded in the swiss and the french alps. you can ski the alps in the spring, and nothing is better then snowboarding in a t-shirt. i've hung out on beaches in greece. in the postcards, the water is that shade of too-blue that makes you think it can't really look like that, but it does. i've drank in the beer halls in munich. in germany, the beer comes in liters but it never seems to fill you up. i've walked the beaches of normandy. there was an old man there, american, standing alone on the beach, silently crying. his wife said this is the first time he's been to a beach since the last time he was on that one. bruge is one of the most pleasant cities in the world. the best chocolate, french fries, waffles, and beer come from belgium. of all the places i've been i've never felt more at home than in the low countries. i need to travel more. i'm going to amsterdam at some point this year, company is always welcome. i'm smart, like, really smart. and i have the tests to prove it. but i haven't really done or accomplished much. i want to know, do, be everything, but indecision and procrastination have left me doing nothing. i have a good vocabulary, and i'm very articulate. at the same time, i find it difficult to talk about my feelings because, ironically, i can never find the right words. i like to debate, not to convince other people i'm right but more to share ideas. i have no problems playing devils advocate, i already know why i think your right, i want to know why you do. i dislike people who are right for the wrong reasons and don't see the difference. i dislike being told to do, think, or feel anything, and i dislike people who try and tell others what to do, think or feel. i dislike organized religion, or any group that puts its own beliefs above empirical evidence. i'm an agnostic because that's what makes the most sense to me. i probablly have seasonal affective disorder and attention deficiate (hyperactivity) disorder. those are just supposition's though, i've never actually been diagnosed. good conversation is more important than good settings, and if you're with good people than you should be able to have a good time anywhere. i like a rowdy party every once in a while, it's just not always my scene. usually i'd prefer to be somewhere a little more chill, where we can throw on some marley and not have to worry about someone dropping a dime. i like good beer, i like to drink. the ability to get wasted is not however the same as the ability to have a good time. people who don't know the difference are boring. i love to cook, especially for friends and company. i just hate doing the dishes after. i identify as liberal more than conservitive but my views tend to the extremes of the spectrum rather than the center. i think it's fair to say i'm fairly laid back. there's not really too much that gets to me. if i don't know what to say, i usually won't say anything. i'm as comfortable in silence as i am in conversation, and i like spending time with people as much as being on my own. my life is a balance between the two. i make friends easily, and i fall fast. but there's a restlessness and bordome in me that leads me to move on just as quickly. i love music, most of it anyway. i'll listen to any cd twice. my tastes are very eclectic but new additions tend to come in phases rather than piecemeal. i'm a vocal advocate of ending the cannabis prohibition. give me five minutes and i'll convince you too. i don't think it's possible to really know someone unless you really know them, but people can be just as deceptive and dishonest in person as online. i could write pages and pages about me. but knowing things about someone will always be different than knowing them. don't let that keep you from asking questions though, my screen name is 'the jilted sun'
