My favorite word is 'paradox.' I am both a writer and a scientist, an artist and a purveyor of logic. I live life quickly yet focus on the details. The things I find most beautiful in life are soft, sweet nature and the rough edges of industry.

Further, I am people-centric and fiercely passionate, almost to a fault. I cannot hide my affection for others, which prohibits me from playing 'games.' I love life so much that it hurts. I am eccentric and my style leans towards the eclectic. I have been described as a 'ball of energy.' I get enthusiastic about the little things--Heck, yesterday at work I got a little rowdy about lighting candles! :D

Needless to say, I'm not your typical eighteen year old. I have my life together and I know myself and I know what I want. I am a more serious dater than most my age, and find that I am most in need of stability in a life that tends to be a little unstable. However, stability does not mean boring. I am most attracted to fellow eccentrics, fellow lovers of chaos, fellow dislikers of the usual. I need somebody who is not only socially competent, but also will hold my interest and be willing to take risks, never hold back, and live as if we'll be gone tomorrow.

I'll wrap this up by truthfully admitting that I am a lot to handle and have an endless amount of love and life tucked into this body. I'm not for everybody, but, hey--I might be for you. :)
