beneath this hat, and behind these eyes, I am just a simple boy who wishes for the world

Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past,
stop planning the future,
stop figuring out precisely how we feel,
stop deciding exactly what we want,
and just see what happens...


If I had to describe myself in one song it would be "River of Dreams."

In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep,
from the mountains of faith--to the river so deep.
I must be looking for something, something sacred I lost,
but the river is wide, and it's too hard to cross.
Even though I know the river is wide,
I walk down every evening and stand on the shore,
I try to cross to the opposite side so I can finally find what I been looking for.
In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear, to a river so deep.
I been searching for something, taken out of my soul.
So then I'd never lose, something somebody stole.
I don't know why I go walking at night but now I'm tired and don't wanna walk anymore
hope it doesn't take the rest of my life till I find what it is that I've been looking for.
In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep, through the jungle of doubt,
to the river so deep.
Iknow I'm searching for something, something so undefined.
that it can only be seen, by the eyes of the blind. In the middle of the night.
I'm not sure about a life after this God knows I've never been a spiritual man,
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river that is running to the promise land.
In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep, I go walking through the desert of truth, to the river so deep.
We all live in the ocean. We all start in the streams.
Were all carried on, by the river of dreams~~~Billy Joel



Just trying to forget about life for a while.









If you want to talk im me at jmanpettit on aim. I love to play golf. I am a student at SUNY Brockport. I never would have seen myself on a dating website. I enjoy all kinds of music but I have to say that BILLY JOEL, Elton John, Our Lady Peace, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ben Folds Five, and Kid Rock are among my favorite. I love to go to the movies...Ed Norton is my favorite actor. I get along with all kinds of people and get along with just about anyone I come in contact with. I like girls that know their sports but it is not a must... I like women that intimidate me... I'm not just here to try to find a good date but also to just talk and make new friends. Please don't message me if you are a stereotypical or a prejudice person...It offends me greatly. Don't know much more to say so if you would like to learn more please contact me. Oh yeah, almost forgot--Billy Joel fans are a plus!

And a heads up...If you are the kind of person to drive around the parking lot for ten minutes to get the closest possible spot--I haaate it! Or, if you take the elevator instead of the stairs...Stop being so lazy! ;-p

"I know theres fish out there but where God only knows."

I am open for just about anything...Sporting events are always fun. Nature walk-- maybe?
