About Me:
It's actually hard to describe myself. I don't know how
some people can do it categorically and precisely.
I admire that. I used to think I was a philosopher, but
don't we all. To be honest, I've only perused through
the 'major' philosophers. But according to the m-w
dictionary a philosopher is also: a person whose
philosophical perspective makes meeting trouble with
equanimity easier. Whose philosophical tenet? Well, my
own. I am more of a gazer though, and at times precarious
due to my natural sense of curiousity, which killed the
cat...i know. But I do know that I have more love in my
heart than hatred. I always give people the benefit of the
doubt, first impressions are NOT lasting impressions for
me, making fun of someone because of their intellectual
incapabilities, physical attributes, or conversational
skills is not a topic of conversation. And the concept of
being open minded is a myth. No one is open minded, it's a
way of living, not a state of being.

Who I Want to Meet:
If I were to say what kind of person I would like to meet,
I feel as if though I would have this preconceived idea in
my head that no one will ever live up to. So I have
decided not to, and I have met some great people in my
life. Some that are very close to my heart, others that are
very close to my spleen. In the exterior, I would like to
meet also Madeline Albright, President Clinton, Pedro
Almodovar, and David Sedaris.

almost certainly be written in a
poised, elegant, and highly
unconventional typeface. He
refreshingly derides those who give
vent to their loquacity through
extraneous bombastic circumlocution.
He's sweet, humble, thoughtful and
exceptionally smart. Something of a
Zenigma too--you're better off knowing
him than not.
have only met a few times, i feel close
to him and i care about him. he is
sweet and kind and sooooo cute. i love
his voice, there is just something
about it.
i hope to see you soon etienne!
has the most charming smile with a
slight touch of mischief. Whoa, now
that I think of it, so much like
Amelie! I think the sequel is going to
be about a young, backpack toting,
worldly boy changing lives across the
world for the better and it just might
be called Etienne. Oh and he's really
good with his tongue. Languages I
mean! Tu sei pazzo regazzo! Ci
parliamo.
one of the most genuine souls I know.
He is very intelligent and sweet. And
very photogenic!
should be a model (I don't think he can take a
bad picture...I tried) he's even better in
person. Here's to dualing digital cameras in
Central Park and awesome aussie movies in
Chicago!
an adorable smile.
