ABOUT ME
Your Personality Is
Idealist (NF)
You are a passionate, caring, and unique person. You are good at expressing yourself and sharing your ideals.
You are the most compassionate of all types and connect with others easily.
Your heart tends to rule you. You can't make decisions without considering feelings.
You seek out other empathetic people to befriend. Truth and authenticity matters in your friendships.
In love, you give everything you have to relationships. You fall in love easily.
At work, you crave personal expression and meaning in your career.
With others, you communicate well. You can spend all night talking with someone.
As far as your looks go, you've likely taken the time to develop your own personal style.
On weekends, you like to be with others. Charity work is also a favorite pastime of yours.
You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind. You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life. Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling. And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen!
You enjoy all that life has to offer, and you can appreciate the fine tastes and sites of Paris. You're the perfect person to wander the streets of Paris aimlessly, enjoying architecture and a crepe.
You are very passionate, especially when it comes to love.
In fact, it's sometimes difficult for you to tell between love and lust. You jump in head first, and figure things out later... usually when it's all over!
Energetic, creative, and very curious about the world... You're not going to let anything hold you back, especially a cold day. Whether you're chilling out at the beach or partying all night, you live for the warm weather.
You're energetic, althletic, and totally hyperactive. You love playing sports and being in the middle of all of the action. You're independent, corageous, and brave. Unafraid to do things your way. Mars can be reckless, quick tempered, and a little too spontaneous. so think before you act - and resist your natural urges to dominate others.
You are more than a little eccentric, and you're apt to keep very unusual habits. Whether you're a nightowl, living in a commune, or taking a vow of silence - you like to experiment with your lifestyle. Expressing your individuality is important to you, and you often lie awake in bed thinking about the world and your place in it. You enjoy staying home, but that doesn't mean you're a hermit. You also appreciate quality time with family and close friends.
You don't really try to seduce people... it just seems to happen. Fun loving and free spirited, you bring out the inner child in people. You are spontaneous, sincere, and unpretentious - a hard combo to find! People drop their guard around you, and find themselves falling fast.
You are a caring, kind, and selfless partner.
Unsurprisingly, your love style is the most rare.
You are willing to sacrfice your world for your sweetie.
Except it doesn't really feel like sacrifice to you.
For you, nothing feels better than giving to the one you love.
Your friends get you better than any guy ever has, and they're the perfect people to introduce you to your soulmate. So look and act you're best with them, even if it's a girl's night out. You never know who they might find for you!
You're a charmer with a killer sense of humor.
You are very demanding, but you can also be very understanding. No matter what, you always make a lasting impression - you're quite popular. Passionate, you are an active fighter for social causes and politics. In general, you are moody, honest, a perfectionist, and very sexual.
Your Dominant Intelligence
is Linguistic Intelligence
You are excellent with words and language. You explain yourself well. An elegant speaker, you can converse well with anyone on the fly. You are also good at remembering information and convicing someone of your point of view.
A master of creative phrasing and unique words, you enjoy expanding your vocabulary.
You would make a fantastic poet, journalist, writer, teacher, lawyer, politician, or translator.
Who I'd like to meet: Fellow artists & lovers of art. I love to exchange ideas, discover new music, and write! I have hundreds of film ideas, and would like to meet others who are looking for scripts to be produced.
I'd also like to meet new friends who believe there is no excuse for apathy. It's especially important right now - for the futures of our children - to have an earth where they can walk upon the sand without the fear of sun poisoning, without the fear of nuclear winter, without the fear of life lost before it even began.
Maybe one day, I'll meet my favorite directors David Lynch, Martin Scorsese, and Taylor Hackford. I would LOVE to work with them on a couple of my screenplays. (Although eventually, I plan to direct, myself! =)
Because I like to look at everyone's page, and spend some time reading and listening to the songs, it does sometimes take me a while to approve a friend request. Please be patient!! =)
Thanks for being a friend Patricia, you're awesome. Keep in touch...... Hey if you're going to be around Las Vegas on the 20th, come watch me at the GAP store in the galleria mall and I'll give you a CD. Have a good week, stay cool.
As we age we often forget that life is supposed to be fun. When we are young, fun is what we are about. This is somehow lost in the time of our lives.
If we find something that connects us with this lost youthful exuberance, we should keep doing it even if someone tells us otherwise. It is this connection with our youth that I believe will get us though some of the toughest times of our lives.
I hope that you have a great weekend, and a great week to come.
Sometimes it seems as if we have tucked our goals so far into the back of our minds that they appear to us as lights in the distance. The doorway to achieving our goals is still wide open, so we need to run through it and bring those goals closer to the front of our minds, and closer to becoming a reality.
I hope that you a have a great weekend and a great week to come.

An old saying says “You can not dig yourself out of a hole”. You may not be able to dig yourself out of a hole, but given the right motivation you can propel yourself out like a rocket and reach new heights never before thought possible.
I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week to come.

Sometimes we try to make a change but we don't really feel like we are doing anything different. We sometimes feel as though what we are doing really doesn't even matter to anyone.
I can tell you something! What you are doing matters!! You matter!! I know that sometimes change is hard, but if you stay on the right path, it will take you to some really wonderful places.
Every time that we listen & write music... play an instrument... sing & dance... act in a play... or work in some audio/image/video engineering process... something is healing inside...
When we share it with friends... something is healing all over...
cada vez que escuchamos o escribimos musica... tocamos un instrumento... cantamos y bailamos... o trabajamos en procesos de ingenieria de audio/imagen/video.... algo se sana por dentro...
Cuando lo compartimos con amigos... algo se sana en todas partes...
El Amor puede conducir... de manera simple... todo...
Hello my new friend As the Spinners sung, "WHENEVER YOU CALL ME, WHENEVER YOU NEED ME I'LL BE AROUND”
DEEP... my heart and soul is endless, My time is only for those who take me as I am You can have me But if you break me I have already forgiving you As God would have me to do So come to me Love me Try to understand me If you can't Don't fear me Just take more time To know me My friend
A passage from my best selling romantic erotic novel, come take a ride in BRUSH STROKES @ Amazon.com “A man may admire what a woman does for a living; he may admire her education and social circle. He may be enamored with her physical beauty, but he only truly falls in love, with the softest and warmest part of her, her soul.” Under the piano stool a pair of tan high-heel slippers, one was standing up and one lying on its side. In my mind’s eye I could still see her feet in them. I could see her sitting there warming her skin by the fire, and seeing all that put me in an oasis daydream. http://alvinhorn.com
