now the fun part..

i am totally random, very outgoing.. and like to have fun.. i will try anything once and if i like it i'll probably do it for the rest of my life.. theres never a dull moment in my life, and i live for my friends.. besides that i make the best of any situation put before me.. i'd consider myself as being well educated, articulate, classy, and hard working (when i need to be) but i definately have an inner child part of me as well.. i know how to have fun and am very adventurous

My three passions in life (and not in any particular order) are food, baseball, and music... i love to eat.. i love trying international cuisines.. my favorite is greek.. im a baseball fanatic.. yankee fan since the day i was born... i play the guitar mostly, but also a bunch of other instruments..

i get irritated by drama, unchilledness (if thats even a word), people who argue just for the sake or arguing, people who can't or don't try to understand other people's perspectives, people who talk too much, especially about nothing... i dont talk THAT much, so when i do you'd better be listening :)

The person i admire most besides my dad is Lou Gehrig.. for those of you who don't know who he is, he played for the New York Yankees... previously held the record for playing in 2,130 consecutive games.. he played through illness, fatigue, injury, even a debilitating disease (ALS) which, in the end, cut his baseball career short and took his life... to me he is the ultimate example of endless motivation, being driven, and above all else, never giving up no matter what life throws at you...

things in life i would like to do but havent done yet include
sky dive, white water rafting, go wine tasting in the south of france, climb mount everest, coach little league, take a cruise around the world, buy a ferrari, go to a baseball game at every MLB stadium, have a pet orangutan

hmm.. what else.. music? my favorite bands include guster, third eye blind, goldspot, matchbox20, incubus, green day, 311, john mayer, audioslave, creed, radiohead, coldplay, our lady peace, dishwalla, pearl jam, live (old stuff), OneRepublic.. and always growing

favorite quotes:
"Whatever career you may choose for yourself - doctor, lawyer, teacher - let me propose an avocation to be pursued along with it. Become a dedicated fighter for civil rights. Make it a central part of your life. It will make you a better doctor, a better lawyer, a better teacher. It will enrich your spirit as nothing else possibly can. It will give you that rare sense of nobility that can only spring from love and selflessly helping your fellow man. Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for human rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country and a finer world to live in."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

"It's so much easier... when sea foam green is in fashion"
