About Me:
Hi everyone! I'm Nathaniel! I just finished my first year of college, at Saint Bonaventure University. I'm an English and psychology major, and a hardcore nerd. It is quite impossible to obtain an accurate and complete "portrait" of me, through an About Me box. The best way is to talk to me. However, there are some basics that I can describe.

I'm generally a very happy person. I love life, I love being happy, I love being random and laughing. My friends are profound, and I love every one of them. I love a lot. I try not to be upset, and when I am angry, it doesn't last too long. I don't hold grudges, I don't judge, I don't throw people away.

I'm gay. Get over it, it's just who I am. I'm quite open, which is why I don't mind putting it here. It would be a lie to try to paint an image of myself, and leave out a very important aspect. It's like forgetting the toreador in Dali's The Hallucinogenic Toreador. The image might be there, but it's very incomplete.

I'm a nerd, particularly a lit nerd. Yay! =) I also love Stepmania, DDR, LAN parties, etc...I could go on and on and on. So, I'm a gamer, too. I adore RTS games, particularly the classic Starcraft. =) I play Stepmania obsessively, and I play Halo and CS when I have the chance, although I [tragically] own neither.

I think a lot. I'm a psychonaut who has a passion in mind-expansion and the growth of consciousness. Did I mention I'm a psychology major, too? I'm really into cognition and expanding beyond the mind. I'm not one of those peaceful "hippies", I'm an ordinary person who loves thinking, loves life and loves people.I'm not some hardcore Catholic who will smite people, but I'm also not some passive human who just lets others walk over me. I do have my boundaries. As long as they're not crossed, everyone is fine.

All in all, I'm just a 20-year-old male living life in the fast lane, casting grains of sand from my hands into the whimper of life
I'm a realist and idealist. I'm surreal by nature, and introspective by design. I'm just human.

Activities:
Poetry, listening to music, long bicycle rides, golf, bowling, billiards, badminton, chess, aviation, reading, socializing, thinking, tennis, soccer, listening to music obsessively, Magic: the Gathering, have I mentioned listening to music? Music is my life!!!
