About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Looking to meet new people and have adventures!

ABOUT ME

Well the most important thing in my life is humor. I see the humor in everything, even annonying or inconviencing things. I spend a lot of my time doing improv with my friends and am trying to turn this into a career by acting, etc. I love to laugh and even more to make people laugh.
I am a big nerd. Video games, cartoons, and DEFINITELY comic books. It's super intense like socially awkward, lives-in-his-mom's-basement kind of stereotype but it is part of who I am and I indulge it.
I do have a social life (despite the nerdiness and homeschooling; who would have thought right?) I am an extrovert but I am very polite and will not take up very much space at all.
I consider myself to be very smart. I love learning about new things, meeting new people and having meaningful conversations.

PHILOSOPHY

Like I said before, I see the humor in everything. I strangely enough find myself replying to even really sad or unusual things with the words, "That's really funny".
I try my best to be optimistic but at the same time remain down to earth.
I like to be as prepared as I can and don't tend to do things on the fly but I am learning to go with the wind sometimes.
I am a very direct person and appreciate when people can be direct with me.
I believe whole-heartedly in the concept of balance and moderation. Similarly, I think life is a give and take and I do my best to give what I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a very niche type of music called nerdcore. It is nerds rapping about nerdy things and such. I enjoy it.
I like reading but don't do it as much as I should or wish I could. I worked at a book store for several years too and know a lot about books.
When it comes to movies, my friends sometimes find me pitifully ignorant of pop culture, often because of some extraordinarily famous movies I have not seen. I certainly enjoy film, especially ones that are well made and do not just illicit base instincts like violence. I prefer substance, especially movies that make you think.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have traveled on the west coast and seen things like the Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Yellowstone, the typical tourist stops over there. I like near DC and Baltimore and there are a lot of cool museums and aquariums and such that I've been to here. I have also traveled to New York a few times and seen Times Square, the Central Park Zoo, etc.
