HOW OLD ARE YOU? I would be twenty two years old WHAT DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING to my parents dismay, I happen to be a storm chaser but the winter months are not all that spectacular for large storms so I reduced to the desk job of learning how to be a lawyer, as my father’s wishes asked of me. DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD my childhood was rather simple and easy for any child born with a silver spoon in their mouth. I was always the kind of kid that got into trouble at school for talking back or being too loud and it did not matter how many times that the teacher changed my seat because I was social and able to talk to just about anyone. I remember my parents being there for the important parts of my life because I was their only child and was a cherished thing especially since I was the heir to the perry fortune now. I grew up alone though, n a large house, and really saw my parents when something really important was affecting me which was important because family dinners and the little things were spent with the hired help. I learned how to speak a few different languages though due to the diverse help that we had. I got anything and everything that I wanted because it helped my parents feel better about leaving me for the minor moments in my life, bedtime was never being tucked in and my mom holds it over my head that I still called the help “mom” for quite sometime. my mother is a gentle woman, beautiful in her own right but also vane with a hunger for power and money and seems to have no limits on how to obtain her desires. my father is a stern man, and we share the same height and eyes, he was always the disciplinary in the family and thought of himself as the head of the household at all times and made his point known. their love is strong though and their schedules do intersect to make time for one another which allows me to believe that I was a baby born out of love and not out of the sheer need for an heir to the money that had been acquired through my father’s business. SINGLE OR TAKEN? I was meant to be in an arranged marriage but I escaped it, and though…I did love the girl, I had to let her go because I knew that this was not the life that she wanted. my parents had arranged this since my birth apparently, plotting our wedding day along with our names and she was always such a beautiful girl inside and out. humble and down to earth even though she was spoiled, she was able to keep her head on straight. the arrangement was explained to us when we were sixteen years old and the thought of being forced together stopped us from willingly wanting to be in eachother’s company. it hurts, but I got over it and ready to just…move on with my life, she will always by my first love but apparently, not as I thought, she was not my last. SIX POSITIVE POINTS 1) adventurous: being in my profession, you have to have a little bit of a love for a thrill of exploring new areas, digging deeper and getting a full story out of something. storm chasing takes me to all corners of the untied states and though it’s usually in a corn field that I get to stop and take my recordings, it’s still a chance for me to see somewhere new and each corn field is more different than the last…strange as that is. i hike now when I can, even in the cold and I enjoy taking a week out of my summer to go into the woods and camp either alone or with friends—kind of depends on my mood. 2) social: storms by no means are my only company, and though they are interesting to look at, they really don’t talk back all that much except when they want to throw a bolt of lightning down or unleash a tornado in your path. i enjoy getting to know people like the in and otus of a storm and yes…I do make a lot of comparisons to the weather as it has just become a habit for me. you can be a whirling tornado when you are pissed or the eye of the storm during an eerily calm moment when things are drastic—which I do. but I do like getting to know people and talking to them and I don’t mind someone getting to know me, it makes things less awkward that way. 3) sarcastic: my mother hates that I got this from my father’s side of the family, but I can be witty. I think of this as a positive trait because it never leaves you in a bored conversation as I always have something to say, though I can see where this could be negative as well. I try and keep my sharp wit toned down and most of the time I am successful but I do have the moments where I falter and when I say something, there are times where it comes out in a mocking way, it’s not…I swear, it’s just the way that I talk. 4) brave: you have to be in order to be a storm chaser as your life can end rather quickly in the midst of the storm that gets out of hand. bravery is something that comes with physical activities for me, I will climb a mountain just to say that I did it and to face my fear but the idea of settling down and stop being so adventurous and outgoing is not something that I am willing to admit that I’m afraid to, at least not quite yet. I still want to be able to face my demons and dragons before I face the woman that I am going to marry. 5) accepting: gay, straight, bi, male, woman, transgender, it’s all good to me. I usually travel further south where this kind of thing is not as accepting and that bugs me. I hear and read the meanest things when in this conservative states and they kind of need to get with the program and see that well…times have changed and so have sexualities. I want to say something but I stop myself because I’m technically an outsider and as accepting as I am, I accept their intolerance. 6) romantic: I’m a straight guy, so I guess this positive trait comes to the woman’s side of things. I do happen to enjoy whisking a girl off her feet on the very first date and making it fun and memorable because that’s the kind of guy that I am. I will admit that I hate to be forgotten and because of that, I make things as amazing as possible so it’s a night that the girl will never forget. in the long term, my longest relationship was with my ex-fiance from the ages of thirteen to sixteen and then we drifted apart and eventually, split. my shortest was a week, a fling that a girl labelled while I was in tennessee chasing a cell that we were waiting to turn into a tornado. I do take forever to reply to texts but not because I don’t want to talk but usually because my mind is elsewhere, I will call a girl that I like in the middle of the day just to let her know that she is on my mind and you can expect flowers from me at the office just to let you know that I’m thinking of you and miss you….i’m that kind of romantic. SIX NEGATIVE POINTS 1) sarcasm: see above for the negative side but I guess it does stand. I never mean to be mean but sometimes my words come out as such and if so, a quick reality check will make me apologize and swear to make it up to that person. 2) common sense: it’s lacking for me in a way. I just, never really think of the consequences or the idea that I could get hurt until someone with that ability gives me the wake up call that what I am doing is stupid. it’s almost as though my conscious skips out when I come up with a plan to do something that is rather idiotic, leaving me no guidance except for a moral compass that tells me if something is right or wrong in the physical sense when it comes to others—but myself, very little thought process occurs. 3) pushover: there are times that i will bend to the wills of others because of that social quality that I have. I easily will drop anything for a friend and go to drastic measures to make sure that my popularity with that person is maintained. in a way, it’s brown nosing but with a subtle hint to it at least. 4) argumantive: I hate to lose argumnents and sometimes will even pull out my phone and research things just to keep myself afloat in a debate with someone else. I have this need to push people for their limits and then I make it up to them by allowing them to push me, it’s a win-win situation. 5) guarded: though I am social and I like people to get to know me, as a person, my past and my love past is not exactly an open book anymore. I try and look forward to the future rather than be seen as disappointment to my parents or the idea that I am kind of…a failure in their eyes I guess. I don’t want that to be known so I usually try and divert the conversation away from my parents because the tone of my voice changes and I really don’t want to get mad at the person. 6) rebellious: this is a trait that I picked up when I was a kid and something that really has not died down in the slightest since then, infact, I think it has escalated. a girl can turn me down and I will never ever bug her again about going on a date, but if you tell me that I can’t go somewhere or do something—I’m going to. I’m like any other boy in a sense because…well, I am a male and do have that innate instinct to prove that I am perfect capable of doing whatever it was that I was forbidden to do. BEST MEMORY the best memory that comes to mind, like instantly, was my first kiss with becca. we were fifteen years old, already had dated for a few years but never actually letting our hormones get the best of us, it was on her birthday and I had this …sky line thing that could be climbed out onto and lay on the roof where a balcony was built and it was nice. under the stars, after giving her a cupcake along with a kiss to the cheek, she turned her head and just..kissed me. no one had ever taken that intiative before or even allowed me no chance to think of a decision for myself and I don’t know why but I really liked her taking control. it was a sweet moment in my life that brings a smile to my face no matter what, even with the pain that comes to my chest with the mere thought of her. WORST MEMORY it was two and a half months ago, my partner Daniel and I were out in a corn field and this huge tornado just kind of appeared. it was not even a planned visit, the cloud had not turned into a cell according to our equipment and we had no idea how we had missed such a huge cloud behind us but it came out of no where and we were in the middle of this huge corn maze field in the middle of no where. to make matters worse, it was coming right for us. Daniel and I ran, leaving everything behind, thousands of dollars in equipment and the wind was so strong and we barely made it to the small ditch on the side of the road. I had to grab daniel’s shirt to keep him from blowing away and it was just a scary, scary moment for me. I realized then how thrilling but also how dangerous our job was and it made me rethink my life for only a moment. FAVORITE ANIMAKL, COLOR, WORK-OUT ROUTINE animal: horse color: orange work-out routine: jumping jacks WHAT DOES A DAILY MORNING LIKE YOU FOR YOU a daily morning for me now is that I have to get up at six in the morning and drag myself out of the comfort of my bed. sometimes there is a young lady beside me and sometimes not. two different things happen then, either I take a shower and then go right for a half cup of coffee and then get dressed into my suit and go or…I happen to wait around for her to wake up, usually a weekend, and then make us breakfast, talk a little, and then she usually leaves and go about the routine. I’m expected to be into work on the weekends but I do anyway because I have to get the training in and it’s a good escape and a way to keep me busy.. ONE THING YOU CANNOT DO THAT YOU WISH YOU COULD whistle, for some reason, I just don’t have the ability to curl my lips and whistle but I wish I did. I can’t get a cat call right either but that’s something that I rarely do.. ARE YOU A DREAMER OR A REALIST? a little bit of both. I like to think that the dreams that I have for myself are going to be achieved one day, but at the same time, I don’t know if fate will allow it to happen as things always happen for a reason. a little bit of both is a good balance in my opinion because that means that I see the world from two different sides,i don’t disregard those that want to be kind of cold to the world and think that dreams are a waste of time but I don’t want to discourage those that have those dreams too. IF YOU COULD CHANGE YOUR PROFESSION, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BE? I would want to be something…rewarding I guess. blood makes me faint in a very feminine way, complete with a girlish scream and everything. I could never be a vet because I would want to cuddle all of the animals…so I guess, I don’t know, when I was a kid, I wanted to be a clown but my mother frowned upon that instantly due to her fears. so I suppose…a chef. I like to cook and I guess that profession is pretty cool in my mind. WHERE IS YOUR HOMETOWN? cold springs, colorado DO YOU DO A GOOD DEED A DAY? I attempt to do more than one but missing a day doesn’t screw up my karma. DO YOU THINK YOUR LIFE IS THRILLING ENOUGH? i’m quite certain that my life is like no other. well these were some very weird questions but there I am, in a nutshell. I’m a huge disappointment to my successful parents, and to make matters worse would be because I’m the only child (that he knows of) and I reduced our family name in their eyes. they threaten to write me out of the inheritance all of the time and though the threat does scare me a little bit, it’s not going to make me change my mind about my life. i was meant to be married by now, at twenty two, with a kid on the way with the big estate and a lot of help to assist me in my daily life and though life growing up was a breeze because I had all of this—it was harder when I entered the real world. eighteen years old, a thousand miles from home, and I had no clue about doing laundry or cooking and though I am more than capable now, it was a challenge for quite sometime. |
