About Me:
I'll leave that up to my family and friends - see their testimonials
I can say a few things...I am truly blessed to be surrounded by a loving family and friends who have given me fond memories and are great people....I have struggled with profound deafness, unable to hear on left ear and only 5% on right ear (there are some benefits!!!), grew up as a tennis fanatic, now a golf addict, loyal, family oriented, have HADD (hyperactive attention deficit disorder), down to earth, shy, quiet (my hard of hearing makes it difficult to meet and interact with new people quickly especially in noisy environments)
DISLIKES: traffic, GW Bush, religious fanatics, people who are arrogant and condescending, Trump's fake hair (shave it like me Trumpy), tardiness, flakes, cold weather, bad food, lousy service, bad table manners, overpaid fat pro athletes, chain smokers, highly selfish people, the big bad ass ocean, reckless cab drivers, cops who think they are above the law, taxes, racists
-
Who I Want to Meet:
Tiger Woods - I need a lesson or two (can you hit a golf ball equivalent of 3 football fields straight?), Lebron James - the next Michael Jordan, Michael Moore - outstanding and fearless documentary filmmaker, Steve Jobs - innovative and brilliant founder of Apple/Ipod, Bill Gates - ruthless businessman, President GW Bush -- ha ha NOT, George Soros - big time trader and philantrophist, Alan Magee - incredible talent, Steve Cohen - founder and head trader at SAC Capital who has a record that is beyond reach, Bill Miller of Legg Mason - has beaten S&P for 14 years straight, and people who are humble, talented, smart, kind, compassionate, generous, cultured, creative, prompt, and charming

Testimonials and Comments for Rushan
could have ever happened to me. He's not
only a great tennis player (he's one of
the few men, besides my husband, that
can make me sweat *wink*), but also a
true friend. Thanks for always being
there for me, Roosh!
fabulous to the core. This boy knows
how to have a Fu*king good timeit
runs in the family. I have only really
gotten to know him this past year but
already he has become a great friend
and another dangerous Sri Lankan
partner in crime. What can I say, I am a
sucker for these Samarasinghe boys!
one of the most sincere & fun
people I've known...He's always
been like a big brother to me and is
quite simply... a gem. And he
loooooooooooooves a good apple
martini :) You better visit me in Oz,
big bro!!
the universe. and to boot, intelligent,
driven and caring...lucky to know him..
Except he's a better tennis player
from what I hear. Oh, and a better
golfer. Oh, and has more hair.
Okay, maybe not, but he's
definitely 'the man'. Tiger Woods
might drive a ball over 350 yards
but Rushan can drive the ladies
crazy...so, "hah!" to you Tiger....
Talk to anyone that knows this man and
they will say the same....
hands down, you are the most genuine
person I know. It is a gift and a
blessing that you have been in my life
for the past 15 years. We have
experienced alot together and thru all
my ups and downs you have been there
rock solid..and for that I am forever
grateful.. for those of you out there,
take note... Rushan "the bitch"
Samarasinghe, a true constant in my
life... i applaud you my friend
beast cannot do? He can kick your ass
in tennis, take it strong to the hole,
beat any man in mini golf, then out
class you with all the ladies. My bro
is the man! He's got a heart of gold
and buns of steel and seems to be
everyone's favorite guy. Just watch
out after he downs a couple of those
sour apple martinis. The sh*t just
hits the fan as his tie goes around
his head. There is no shortage of
love for this guy, least of all from
me.
great friend and a class act. Genuine
and warm hearted. For some reason
loses control when he drinks too much
(remember the loft party, passed out on
the sidewalk outside?; had to drag him
through the lobby of the Marriott
Marquee; I'm sure he doesn't remember)
brother Rush, maybe I should. Rush is
my inspiration in life. He is the most
generous brother, son, husband, father
that I've seen, and he has a heart of
400 karat gold. If it weren't for Rush,
I'd probably be a whole different
person. And I am nothing short of
honored to be his little sis and his
friend. Rushia, Chiapet, Mulan, Luchia-
I love ya!!!
