Daniel J. Strider,
[attr="class","pp"]
wow, are you my ...i completely lost track of time! well please sit sit, let me just move this stuff out of the way. okay, let's get started. tell me a little bit about yourself. When he had lived anywhere besides New York, not driving was a very huge inconveinence. But suddenly, the city that never slept offered an abundance of alternative means of travel. Subways, cabs - this place had it all. Daniel gave a giddy grin - the kind that took up his entire face. He radiated this bouncy enthusiasm, and his voice was was a lot louder than it needed to be. 'Hey, hi! How are you doing? Awesome, alright, let's see,' he spoke as he got situated, words tumbling from his mouth as if he could hardly contain them. 'My name is Daniel Strider - and yes, please feel free to bask in the glow of a kick ass name. I am twenty three years old, and I've been getting me some college education while I clean pools for some fat stacks of green dough. I guess thats as far as tidbits go...other than the tidbit that I love the word 'tidbit.' Oh wait! My birthday is December 11th, which means that I am,' he paused for dramatic effect, 'a Sagittarius!' he beamed at the person, but they seemed entirely unimpressed with his energetic introduction. He folded his hands in his lap. 'Uh, I don't really follow all that zodiac crap. It's just been really popular lately.' that's a lot of information. so tell me, where are you from? Daniel chuckled a little, 'Sheesh, let me think. I've moved around a lot.' He tipped his head back and covered his eyes with his palm, trying to look like he was thinking very very hard. 'I'm pretty sure I was born in New Mexico. Started there, at least. Moved around the country. Now I'm here!' He whipped his head back to look them straight in the eyes again, and the beaming smile reappeared. ahh fascinating ! well i'm from here, born and raised, never left. so many people that i know and love here, just couldn't leave them ! what about you? anyone you care dearly for here? Daniel sat up a little straighter in his seat. He was fascinating, wasn't he? He nodded along with them, empathizing completely about not wanting to leave the people he cared about the people he loved the most. They were all so important to him, and he thrived off of their affection and company. Sitting forward a little, excited that he was given the oporrotunity to talk about them. 'Well, I have a pretty decent sized family to begin with. One older sister, one older brother, and one younger sister. They're all beautiful, awful, amazing, annoying little nerds and I love them very much. We've been through a lot together, and we're closer to each other than we are to our parents.' He bit his lip, trying to read their emotions and get a reaction. Should he talk about more? 'Uhm, I could go on for a while here. I've got lots of friends: coworkers, fellow classmates. I tend to talk a lot, even if you're just someone ringing me up behind a counter. Friendships aren't hard for me to stumble upon, you know?' quite a list. must mean you have a juicy past,let's hear a little bit about it. Daniel laughed heartily, 'Oh yes, my history is just...the juiciest,' he shook his head, trying to tone himself down. 'Alright, a little? Okie dokie. Let's see, like a mentioned earlier, born in New Mexico. Lived there for about a year. Went to Vegas. Lived there for a few more years. Moved away from the west coast, had a lot of family in Ohio, so we visited there a lot. We eventually settled for a while in New Hampshire. I was like...five. Maybe? I don't know, the details are pretty blurred. It's probably not too important. We had to move a lot because my mother was an event coordinator. Yeah, I don't really know what that means either. But anyways, we make it to New Hampshire and stay there for awhile. Things got pretty weird between my mom and dad, and eventually my mom split. So we were sort of stranded in New Hampshire. It wasn't bad, but I dunno. I was a kid, it was fine. My dad tried really hard to make sure we grew up alright. He's a pretty good guy, and I'm proud of him. Anyways, my siblings all had their different opinions about the way we were raised. I think it was fine, but I dunno. We all have our own shit, right? No childhood is perfect.'There were a lot of good things that happened to me. High school was a pretty interesting time, as it is for most. My grades were always...alright. I didn't really put that much effort into the work, and didn't do as well as I could have. I was pretty distracted though. We spent a lot of summer vacations in Ohio, actually. I think...one of my first relationships started there. Yeah,' his voice trailed off as he recollected his past. 'Yeah, it wasn't my actual first, but this guy was a pretty new experience. I was still testing things out, but we worked in a lot of ways. But, only during the summers. By the time I made it back to New Hampshire, I was already, er, cheating on him I guess. But, he probably was doing the same thing to me. So it wasn't like any feelings got hurt. We tried to make it last long distance because of the way we worked. But we realized how shitty that was, and we lost touch. Just a summer fling. After that, not much really changed throughout my life. I took the opprotunity to take a lot of lessons while we were actually settled and not traveling to fuck knows where. Took a dance class, learned a few things like martial arts and guitar. Never really got too much in to anything. I haven't really met the love of my life or done anything to change the world yet. I decided to go to college for web design and visual communications, and I decided New York could be a fun place to try and get as many experiences as I can.' you just get more and more interesting. is that a word that someone would describe you as? no? then what is something that people would say you are. He pretended to blush. 'Well, they might describe me as interesting. They might describe me as plenty of things, it really just depends on the person. Someone who has known me pretty well for a long time could talk about how extroverted I am. My siblings would say that I'm pretty overwhelming sometimes, at least, I'm pretty sure they would. I'unno. But someone who hates me would say that I'm an overinflated prick, douche bag, ass hat, anything really. So it depends on the person.'do you agree with what people say about you? 'Yeah, sure? I mean, why wouldn't I? Obviously I'm not gonna get offended if someone thinks I'm an asshole, because to them, I very well might have been. I'm sure there are moments where I'm awful, hypocritical, and I'm incredibly opinionated. But I'd like to think of myself as...if not a nice guy, then at least a decent guy. I know I can be snippy and sarcastic, and a big smart ass delight, but I really do enjoy making friends and making those friends happy. I get a little protective with them. What? No! I'm certainly not jealous! Noo way! That's just ridiculous, I mean, c'mon! I'm like...the least jealous person ever,' for someone who was so eager to talk about himself, Daniel was having a hard time forming up coherent words now, 'I'm, uh, pretty open-minded as well, but I will defend my own opinions with everything I've got. I guess thats part of the stubbornness? I don't like to focus on things like flaws or anything, or bad things. I sorta put up the blinders and keep on jammin'. Nothin a wild party can't fix. Er, yeah. I dunno.'well i still think you have a certain something, not really sure what that is but i bet your boyfriend/girlfriend knows or are you still on the market? 'Pshtt, I don't even really know, man. I've been in and out of so many relationships, I can't even count them anymore. I pretty much just go along with whatevers in front of me, but right now, one night stands are my favorite. Yeah, I'm a total sucker for romance, but eh. I dunno. There's a lot of work in relationships, and I'm not sure I want to handle that right now. But I do sometimes so, er, yeah sure. I'm on the market.' shit, time flies. my next appointment will be here in a few minutes. it was a pleasure to meet you! Daniel sprang to his feet. 'Wow, it really does fly by huh? Soon it will be like...Christmas or something wacky.' Practically twirling away, he realized he had a lot more fun with that than he had first thought we would. He checked his phone, beaming at the amount of texts he had waiting for him. |
