I love my life and want to get the most out of it while the getting is good. I'm self-diagnosed OCD, though I consider it less of a disorder and more of a duty and honor. I tend to compartmentalize different aspects of my life. I kind of hate talking about most subjects. In fact, I kind of hate talking most of the time. I'm more of a pragmatist, with occasional pessimistic tendencies, than an optimist - though I have tremendous faith in the potential of humanity. It's been said that I'm rather cerebral and unfeeling, but I have an *amazing* sense of humour, so whatever. Bit of a control freak ;) A little self-centered and secretly altruistic. Comfortable with myself, and happy in life.

People who: are drawn to and can appreciate lofty ideals, are comfortable with the dark side of the psyche and human interaction, are articulate, talented, driven, intelligent, and strive for perfection. People who are well-adjusted and comfortable with themselves. People who seek to fill the world with beauty, but who know that beauty is defined by its mundane surroundings.
