Geez, that's a tough one. Every time I think I know myself well, I end up finding out something about me that I may or may not like.

I have a completely whacked sense of humour that scares a lot of people. It's morbid, sarcastic and it comes always at the wrong time. Guess I've a taste for dark humour. I'm learning the art of the acidic tongue and getting the last word in by watching House (love the evil doctor). As you can see, I also seem to have a talent for stringing together unrelated sentences and calling them paragraphs.

I'm a pretty "nonchalant" (read: lazy) person when it comes to doing things. I can be pretty obsessive when dealing with stuff that matters, but for most of the time, I'm usually laid back (fine, procrastinating) until the deadline comes and I get into all sorts of trouble. Still, living on the edge of deadlines is quite a rush, if not a particularly healthy one.

I'm described as aloof and I usually don't have anything smart/useful to say. In the right company however, shutting me up is going to be a problem. My friends say I can be a real cold bastard before I know someone well. That's absolutely NOT true. I can STILL be a cold bastard AFTER I know you well. I'm also the worst correspondent you'll never hear of. :P

I hate being in photos, audio and videos. Who knows what they can incriminate me of right? Which is pretty ironic for an aspiring photojournalist.

Finally, I *REALLY* hate to talk about myself and I'm a damned good liar as well. So how much of this is true? GO FIGURE.

Likes: reading, music, sleep, nice surprises and people, my friends, natural environs, silence, video gaming, photography, semi-darkness, junk food, a good conversation (and read)

Hates: bright lights and colours, loud noise that isn't music, not-so-nice surprises and people, humourless people, writing self-essays such as this one.

Before one knows what one wants in others, one must know what one wants from one's self first. Try saying that repeatedly! And no, that's not a Zen quote, it's just some nonsense I made up to twist your tongue! :P

In this case, one wants a single, sweet, nice, attractive (attractive=beauty, brains, personality, attitude and most of all,heart) gal who can tolerate bad puns, perpetually bad hair days and goodness knows how many other vices I have. Hey, a guy can dream right? :)

People I'd like to meet and watch them strut their stuff: U2, The Corrs, Charlotte Martin, Snow Patrol, Jane Monheit, Fiona Apple, Foo Fighters, Sarah McLachlan, The Wallflowers and a whole bunch of other people. Nice people like you, for instance. *wink* :)
