About Me

Hey guys, Nick here. It's been a long time since I had last time I updated my profile so here it goes.I'm 24 years old , living in grand ol' Des Moines, Iowa. I've been here for two years and I must say that it has been a major change for me. I moved here from the west coast to be closer to my family. All I can say about that is that I am glad that I can say that that chapter in my life is over with. I can't say that I hate them but we can just agree to disagree. I choose to DO for myself and not try to break people down to make myself look better. In a lot of ways it has helped me realize that life is too short to always cast judgements on other people. Since the beginning of this year; better yet, since my experience in the military I knew that there was something that I was missing in my life and truly had a hard time with it. I chose to numb the feeling by drinking it away and endulging in the same thing that I denounce in people today. I guess you can say that this is a truly in depth and personal profile but that's what it's meant to be. I'm tired of temporary friendships and people who say things but their actions speak otherwise. I am a unique individual and even though we met at a previous job I feel that in the grand scheme of things it was meant to happen. On that note.... here comes my party side..... I love to go hang out at the bars with my friends and shoot the shit...not too often though, then they seem to get old REALLY quickly. I also enjoy just sitting at a friends house drinking a cocktail, getting to know new people and making a fool of myself. I also love the outdoors. Camping, hiking, fishing, and hunting are basically the quickest way to my heart. Nothing like being out in the middle of nowhere, in the absence of the city bussle, looking at the stars, and finally truly be able to relax. I like to travel, different places and new sites are awesome....new cultures and ways of life can really influence people to realize how small and young our history here in the U.S. has been. I guess you can say I am always up for an adventure. I work on improving myself everyday and setting the bar high once i reach my goals. There is a new goal that has surfaced here in '08. I'm the luckiest guy in the world. Josh and I have been dating since June of last year and you couldn't have paid me a year ago to think that I would be in such a loving relationship now. I wish everyone could experience the self worth he makes me feel.Joshs' genuine heart and "deer-in-the-headlights" look are burned into my life forever. It's crazy how sometimes one gets to the point where they think love will never happen. But just when you least expect it.**WHAM** You see stars, it seems like you are floating on cloud nine.All I have to say is that if you are one of the single ones out there... keep your head up. If it happened to me... your turn will come. I know it kind of sounds like I am preaching but i guess this is kind of me putting it all out there. Genuine people need not to have boundaries or sacrifice who they are to compliment one another. There is a fine line between sacrific and comprimise. I hold my friends dear and would take a bullet for them. Speaking of which, with the new addition of Josh in my life there are many new friends ( the family one CHOSES) that I have been blessed to get to know. Dennis, Tami, Elle, and my major bestie Faleasha...You guys truly have my heart and I know that if I ever needed a shoulder to lean on...what am I talking about...? I have and I want to thank you for being you!*Smooches!*Most important personality traits:1. Honesty- God thats kicker... anything can be solved if the truth is always present.I'm an open book, nothing is hidden anymore.... I find it rids me of guilt and regret.2. Respect- Understanding that each person is different in their own right. AND to put so much effort into the improvement of myself that I have no time to judge others.3. Ambition- The key to making life exciting.... ambition is the key to setting goals for myself.4. Faithfulness & Loyalty- People who know me know that even in fits of rage or arguements this holds true for me. Loyalty helps me even breakfree from anger and resentment.5.Spontaneous & Outgoing- Hell, I like to have fun, I'm definetly one of those life-of-the-party type people (as long as the responsiblities are taken care of) It's really easy for me just to start random conversations with whoever is within earshot. Call me after work... tell me we're going on an adventure.... I'M ALL FOR IT! anyway....that's just the tip of the iceberg but feel free to ask any other questions... Oh, and try one of these trait map things.. it kinda makes you to get to know yourself...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet people who are genuine, sponatneous, and driven. Honesty and integrity are 2 of my huge requirements for anyone who can call themselves a friend.To me friendship is not a convience.... I don't really have a specific "clique" so to speak . I can basically fit in with any crowd. I'm laid back but at the same time can be the life of the party.... I also hate to see people upset and will do anything in my power to make them smile or be a shoulder they can cry on....people I'd like to meet... well, people that in a round about way have things in common with me.... are you one of them?Reach me on yahoo messenger [email protected]
