About Me
Hello, and welcome to another futile attempt at condensing an entire personality into a series of letters!I enjoy words, sometimes to my detriment. They colour my existence, provide me with the means to express myself, and occasionally land my foot squarely in my mouth...I can be extremely loud and outgoing, or quiet and reserved depending on my mindset and who I am with. As with anyone there are numerous facets to my personality and interests, so simply referring to myself as a 'geek', 'musician', 'artist', 'movie lover', 'foodie' or 'bookworm' doesn't actually say much.I like good conversations, witty retorts and making people laugh! I smile often, laugh easily, love fully, and seek joy in the little things. I'm fun, loyal, sociable and empathetic - maybe even a little old fashioned in my own way.Just about anything to do with travel, creativity, cooking, theatre, art or design, politics, nutrition / fitness, the environment, activism, science fiction, fantasy, zombies, dinosaurs, steam-punk / Victorian societies, existentialism, time-travel, the paranormal, Boba Fett, epic mysteries, vampires (that aren't sparkly), bacon, pirates, wizards, ninjas, Jedis, dragons, aliens, or dark and psychological plot-twists interests and entertains me!Mmm, bacon...I enjoy adventures, trying new venues or experiences, meeting people and learning new things. This year I want to go sky diving, and learn how to do yoga! Down the road I'm going to go backpacking in Europe and live in / see as many different parts of the world as possible.I'm open to pretty much any music, and find it fascinating how much what we listen to affects how we think and feel - there's nothing more satisfying than hearing the right song at the perfect moment!I love reading, but alas find it difficult to make as much time for it as I used to. I'll read pretty much anything when I get the chance tho, and love discussing plots and themes.Video games are fun on occasion and best with friends or turned into a drinking game - Super Smash'd Bros anyone?!I grew up gaming on the PC, and tend to gravitate towards titles that have a fascinating plot or unique artwork.Also, I can probably still beat Mario 3 and Zelda: the Ocarina of Time by memory! Ha.Some random favourite movies off the top of my head: -- Donnie Darko- the original Star Wars trilogy- Aliens / Predator films- Being John Malkovich- The Princess Bride- Spaceballs- The Matrix films- Kickass- Waking Life-- Garden State***Days Later- Fight Club- The 5th Element-- Snatch- Spirited Away- Pan's Labyrinth- Hot Fuzz- Death to Smoochie- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- Se7en- the LOTR films- Stranger Than Fiction-- Where the Wild Things Are...I could easily go on haha, and enjoy films of pretty much any genre.I'm fond of hand-written notes, hugs that make you squeak, watching thunderstorms, and staying up late discussing life, the universe and everything - preferably sitting around a fire! I enjoy going on hikes or bike rides, and generally prefer playing sports to watching them on TV (not that I'm an amazing athlete, but I can be pretty competitive when it's all in good fun).Honestly I don't expect much from here, but remain open to being pleasantly surprised! I know my worth, and try not to expect anything that I can't offer myself (ie. perfection :P )Feel free to say hello, I don't get online too often, but will eventually! Something simple and casual that allows for conversation.A neat tea / coffee shop, a walk in a park or by the water, a photography adventure somewhere cool, or trip to a thrift store perhaps?I'm pretty new to the area, so surprise me!Spontaneity often leads to fun, be flexible.Individuality, confidence, and self control are key.I'm a sucker for pretty eyes, genuine smiles, unique opinions and colourful hair.A fellow nerd would be a huge plus.Tattoos and piercings can be the epitome of sexy.I have very little patience for people who are rude and deceitful...** Update: if I take forever to respond, it's because I don't have consistent internet access right now. Sorry!If you're creepy, rude or failed the 'try using more than 3-word sentences' test, good luck at life and stuff.We're semi-educated adults living in a first-world country - if you can't participate in a basic conversation by now, no number of websites will save you! Haha.Also, spelling and grammar are totally attractive, haven't y'all heard?!?
