Ijjesa, 40

'm a very laid back, mellow person. i love sports, reading, writing, cooking, movies, video games, politics, religion, animals, and way too many more things to list.

i found that fitting in with everyone, you don't really fit in with anyone. i love poetry, art, philosophy, but can't stand the image of the chic liberal. i'm capitalistic, patriotic, and haven't ruled out a military career, but am not a republican. i've played sports on every educational level of my life -- elementary through college -- yet don't think i was ever a jock. i love video games, abstract simpsons quotes, sci-fi/fantasy books, and action figures, but not a typical nerd.

my two best friends are nothing like me. i adore my parents; because of them (married at 18, and still in love 33 years later), i have an idealized version of romance that i don't believe will ever live up, which can be discouraging.

despite all this, i'm confident on the point of cocky, blatantly optimistic, generous, kind, and love every part of life.

i love to argue; i will challenge every belief you have, and expect the same from you.
