1. I don't like my name much, cause its too common. My first name anyway. And its Alex by the way.

2. I have weird eyes. They're teal/green/gray. Depends on my mood. Sometimes they're even light blue.

3. I've always felt so tall. I'm not that tall right now. Only 6'2" (6'3" maybe?), but in 8th grade I was about 5'9", taller than my english teacher even.

4. I am not Canadian because I was born in Washington DC. My family and I moved here only after the attacks on in DC anymore, and we also had family here.

5. My birthday is on Feb 11th. Same day as Jennifer Aniston. and I'm an Aquarius. Its my favorite star sign actually and not because I'm one. It just is.

6. My grandparents were born in Italy but raised in the US.. so that makes me half Italian. I'm also half German because one of my gramps was born in Germany.

7. I can speak Italian and read it. Most of the time I'll talk half in Italian and half in English at home which is okay cause my family understands me.

8. I started playing soccer at age 4 and my dad used to be my coach when I was little.

9. Alex Del Piero is my idol. (soccer player that plays for the italian team Juventus). And I've always wanted to play for Juventus. I actually had the opportunity to.

10. But I'm going to University of Western Ontario instead of leaving for Italy. I could never leave everyone I love behind. Not even for my dream.

11. I have three sisters, Angie (24) Sara (20) and Brittany (14). I love them all and I'm really overprotective of them.

12. I also have a 15 year old grandkid. She is my friend and I have no idea how she ended up being my grandkid, but hey stuff happens. I'm her "Gramps" now. Oh and I'm really overprotective of her too and I love her.

13. Stephie is my girlfriend aka my prettiful babe. She drives me crazy and I love her more than anything.

14. But Sara's actually the person I love the most. She doesnt need to know that, although I'm sure she probably already does anyway.

15. I love wrestling with Steph. I also love tickling her because I love the way she laughs and giggles and because I just love tickling people. Well her the most anyway. In high school I would chase her all around the halls and then I'd catch her on some corner and tickle her. Everyone thought we were insane which isn't actually that far from the truth.

16. I love cars so much. I don't mind fixing them and I know more about them than I know about myself. Sad isn't it?

17. I learned how to drive when I was 12 years old. My dad taught me everything there is to know about cars since I was that young. He loved cars too, and he owned a car company which is mine now.

18. I learned how to play the guitar when I was in 7th grade, the piano in 2nd grade & bass guitar in 10th grade. I'm mostly self taught.

19. I cannot live without my piano. I'm in love with it.

20. Whenever I listen to a song when I'm in my room, I take the guitar and try to play the song, or I go on my piano and do the same. I just love playing by ear. I can usually play any song I've heard just after trying for like 3 times.

21. I have gone only to private schools so I've always worn a uniform. Same thing with my friends (here and in DC too).

22. Leaving DC wasn't easy at all. I left my childhood friends that I love a lot. I like Canada anyway even though it's really quiet here compared to DC.

23. I love the friends I've made here because they're amazing. My best friends here are: Steph (obviously), Nick, Ledi, Liz, Jase, Amber, Matt, Chantal, Jenn, Jeremy, Jake & Scott. I really don't know what I'd do without them.

24. My friends call me a hoe. I've no idea why. Last time I checked I was really innocent, but oh well it's fun joking around when they call me a pervert. Especially when my own sister calls me a pervert as well or a hoe. They're all perverts themselves anyway.

25. I have way too many nicknames. I could never list them all but my favorite is "Spike". Steph gave me that nickname last, but we won't get into the "why-did-she-give-you-that-nick" story.

26. Right now I live with my mom and Sara. I moved in with my friends and I'm very happy even though I miss home sometimes.

27. I lost my dad last year in a car accident. I miss him so much and I always will. And If I had one wish, it'd be for him to come back.

28. I'm not a big fan of reading books. Because I'm not patient enough and I always want to know what's going to happen. Every time I read one though, I will finish it within a few hours. Not a big fan of books anyway although I love Stephen King's books a lot. I think they're wicked.

29. I can never sleep with more than one pillow. One is more than enough for me. Sometimes I'll even use no pillow at all.

30. I have been to more countries than I can even remember. My family has always traveled, especially in Europe. And I've been to way too many States too.

31. I love driving fast. It's really such a bad habit. I will always drive fast if there aren't many cars around. I'll put on a CD, turn up the volume really loud and I'll just sing along while driving real fast. Well usually I'll sing when someone's with me in the car so we can make a duet. Its fun.

32. I find it easier to express my feelings through what I write so I love writing poetry and songs. I have been writing since I was 13.

33. I paint my nails sometimes. Only black.. although a few times Stephie has painted my nails other colors which was sorta weird but fun.

34. I look more like mom than I did to my dad. We look a lot alike. Its scary.

35. I like dying my hair. So my hair color changes really often especially if I'm drunk.

36. My favorite color is dark blue / navy. I have way too many dark blue clothes & things because I'm just so obsessed with the color.

37. I love pink and baby blue on girls. It's a turn on and I really have no idea why.

38. I love dancers, cheerleaders & tennis players. It's all about the legs. I like any girl anyway. As long as she has some brains and a sense of humor. But I just end up dating those the most. Dancers especially. And Steph is a dancer, tennis player and a former cheerleader. Can we say...purrfect?

39. If a girl has good taste in music, she scores a lot of points with me. Or if she knows a lot about music because I love talking about it.

40. I'm really obsessed with music because it honestly is my life. Sometimes I think I know too much, and I wonder "how much more can I learn / find out about music? is there even any more room about it in my head?". What a stupid question because of course there is! But anyway, yeah if I could pick one thing I could never live without, it'd definitely be music.

41. My favorite type of music is Indie. I love it. I also love acoustic music. I guess I'm really into "Punk" too but I hate the label. And I'm no punk. Never have been, never will be. I don't think being "punk" is cool. Anyway, I will listen to any song, no matter the genre. As long as it's good.

42. Blink 182 will always be my favorite band no matter what.

43. I collect CD's. I buy like 4/5 CD's every week and now I have 1011 so far. I have like 250+ CD's in my car, and the rest at home. I'm so paranoid about them because they're my favorite possesion out of everything I own. I take care of them and I keep them organized. I know I'm a freak.

44. When I was single, I used to kiss random girls in parties. Most of the time it'd be girls I knew or girls that I had seen in my school before (there weren't many students in my school because it was a private one). I never did anything more than just randomly share a few kisses with them anyway, so I don't regret anything.

45. This one time in a party I was kissing this girl whose name I don't even know. I thought I was going to choke. She was a really bad kisser. When I told my friends after I had left her, they said, "That's not going to stop you from making out with other random girls huh?" They knew me too well, but you know, a boy's gotta do what he's gotta do when he wants to have fun. That girl really did gross me out so bad though. I didn't kiss anyone for like 1 week.

46. I love fruits. Any kind of fruit. I eat them all. I also love vegetables. My friends call me "Veggie" because of that. I love it but they're still dumbasses.

47. Debating. Of course I love that. I will never give up in a debate. I take from my dad, what can I say? It can be a bad thing sometimes.

48. I am nice most of the time unless you piss me off. Then I would try to avoid you as much as I can because that's the only way I can think of to push you away. Especially if you're a girl because I wouldn't want to argue.

49. I like to help people. I'm not sure why. I just do. If I see that someone is sad, I will walk up to them and strike up a conversation even if I don't know them.

50. I've been told I can "read" people and I actually believe that I can. My mom and friends actually think I have a 6th sense because of that.

51. I get attached so easily. I really have no idea why I care so much so fast. Sometimes I hate it because other people don't care as much but I've learned to accept that anyway.

52. I like flirting and teasing. I think its fun especially if the people involved know it's just for fun and can take a joke.

53. I'm really sarcastic so I love joking around and just having a good laugh. And I really love people who have a good sense of humor.

54. I call my friends "fuckers" and "whores". I'm a "fucker" too because that's just how we call each other. So if I call them fuckers and whores on here, don't think I'm offending them or anything. I never would. I love them too much for that.

55. I smile and laugh all day. I giggle too. Everyone calls me a dork because of that. They think its cute though so it's all good. I'm just really easily amused. Soo easily amused that it's sad sometimes because I will laugh at the most random things even if no one else does.

56. I can be serious too. And I am. I really can be so serious like you wouldn't believe. It just really depends on the situation though.

57. As my fucker friends say, I talk shit 24/7, which is okay because it's amusing. Sometimes I will even lose myself and I won't know what the heck I'm talking about. But it's still funny anyway, and I will laugh at myself.

58. I'm also so damn hyper all the time. In high school it would drive everyone insane because I'm a morning person, so I'd be hyper in the morning too. I'm pretty much hyper 24/7.. which I think is a good thing. And I also have a positive look on everything most of the time.. because I don't let situations/problems get the best of me.

59. I can be naughty. Usually I will act like a pervert around my friends and of course my girlfriend but we won't go there now.

60. I can also be really mean if I have a good reason. I hate it when I am even though I had a reason to be. I just hate knowing I'm the cause of someone's pain, so I always hold back and when I don't, I regret it. Other times I regret holding back, but oh well..

61. I always wanted to be a professional soccer player when I grew up. But I have sort of given up on that since my dad died. Now I want to become a Psychologist. I always try to help people in whatever way I can, so I figure that being a psychologist would be the perfect job for me.

62. I also want to become a Lawyer like my dad. I've been thinking of Psychology being my major and Political Science my minor.

63. A lot of people get the wrong impression of me when they first see me. I'm not sure why. Maybe because of the way I look or something. People who know me now have said that they thought I was the opposite of what I really am when they first saw me.

64. I probably look like one of those guys who doesn't give a shit about anything but that's not true at all. I'm actually one of those nice & sweet guys. I am tough ::ahem:: when I have to be though.

65. I guess I can be called emotional because I never hold back about how I'm feeling. But I don't think you need to be "emotional" to express your feelings. Anyway, I will tell you exactly what I feel, not caring whether it sounds "feminine" or not. I just don't care. Not only girls are supposed to be emotional.

66. My friends say that I used to be a "player" but I've changed a lot. I'm not the same person I was 2 years ago, I am no playa no mo'.. if I ever even was one to begin with.

67. I know in the past I have broken hearts but every time I have, mine has been broken a little too. Depending on the person, but honestly I've never been a real player because I've always cared for the girls's feelings.

68. I love skateboarding. I've been skateboarding since I was 7 years old, in Germany. Now I skate from time to time with my friends in the skateboarding parks here because its a lot of fun. Some people think we're insane because of the way we skate but oh well.

69. I can't really stand liars but I usually forgive anyone who lies to me anyway.

70. I am usually honest and tell it how it is but I always try to not hurt the other person when I do that.

71. I've only had two real girlfriends here in Canada. Steph & Skye. Girls I've fooled around with don't really count.

72. I'm really obsessed with my girlfriend. She is with me too though so it's pretty awesome.

73. My dad always was and always will be my hero. And I will always look up to him even now that he is gone. He was an amazing person and I can only hope to be half as amazing as he was one day.

74. I've been going to Italy with my family every summer since I was 6 months old. We just love spending summer there.

75. My oldest sister Angie lives in Italy. She left right after she finished High School because she just loves that country too much. I miss her so much all the time.

76. I always pick on my sister Sara and vice versa. We're always making fun of and pissing off each other. It's just too much fun.

77. I hate it when people ask really personal questions. If you don't know me, then why would you even want to know details about private stuff? I don't get it.

78. I know a lot of guys find two girls kissing a huge turn on, but I really don't. I'm not into the whole lesbian shit.

79. I have nothing against homosexual people. In fact I'm actually always arguing with people who are homophobic because they piss me the fuck off. I just think they should mind their own business and just keep in mind that even homosexuals are human.

80. My favorite type of shoes are Adidas & Nike. I'm an athletic dork. I always wear the most random stuff anyway. I'll be wearing a shirt, and another t shirt over it, & baggy pants which most of the time show half of my boxers if you pull up my shirt. I also love wearing band t shirts. I wear one almost every day during the whole year.

81. One friday when we could wear our own clothes and not a uniform in schoool, I dressed like I always do and the teacher kicked me out because I was being a "rebel" by not listening to her about pulling my pants up. She had a problem with seeing them hanging and seeing my boxers apparently. Beyotch.

82. My favorite celebrity ever is Gwen Stefani. I am so obsessed with her. Have been my whole life. I thought I was gonna die when I met her for the first time.

83. I also have an obsession with: Torrie Wilson, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears....

84. I can't stand Marilyn Manson and other people who think they can change the world in their own way. Bullshit. I also can't stand conceited people. They piss me off because they think the world revolves around them and everyone is supposed to be in their service or something. Get a life, please.

85. Sex is good. But sometimes there's that voice on the back of my mind, you know, the consenquences of having sex.

86. I'm not a big dancer but if someone takes me to dance then I will definitely dance. I think it's a lot of fun.

87. I don't like talking on the phone but I will talk to Steph on the phone all night long because I love her and her pretty voice.

88. I play basketball & hockey sometimes for the heck of it. Sometimes I'll also play volleyball with my friends.

89. I like painting and drawing, and I wish I was as good as my mom is.

90. I love swimming in the pool all night. During summer me and my friends would stay in our pools till the next morning. We always had a blast so I can't wait for this summer.

91. Nick, Ledi & I used to stay outside in our back yards till 6 am during the summmer. We'd just talk about anything and everything. They live next to me and theyre two of my best friends ever.

92. Kelly was my first everything and I was hers too. She's the first girl I ever kissed, went on a date with, fell in love with, and I lost my virginity to her. All the things I mentioned are also her firsts with me. I think what we had was really special and rare.

93. I've known her since I was 2 years old. And I've also known Flavio, Chris, Beckie, Landon & Melissa since I've been 2 years old as well. We were all best friends and we grew up together. They're all in DC still & I miss them so much.

94. I once stripped in school for my teacher when I was dared. That was good times. My teacher was awesome because she always joked around with us.

95. I hate pressuring girls, so I'm really paranoid when it comes to doing "stuff" with them. Especially virgins. A girl would have to tell me over and over that it's ok to do "something". My guy friends think I'm weird because of that, but that's ok because I'd rather be weird than have a girl regret ever doing something more than just kissing with me. I'd hate myself forever if that ever happened.

96. I feel nakee without socks on. Seriously. It's sort of sad because I will be wearing boxers only but never barefoot. I just have to have my socks on unless I'm in bed or during summer when I wear flip flops. Other wise I will always have them on, even if it's 40C outside. And I always wear only short socks which aren't longer than up to my ankles.

97. I am was always confused about girls. Probably because I hated hurting their feelings so I'd never tell them what I really felt which was definitely not a good thing.

98. I hate chocolate. I don't know why, but I think I'm alergic to it actually.

99. My GPA in High School was 3.5. Not bad huh? I always felt like a geek for some reason. Especially this one time when I was the only one in my class who had gotten a 99% in my History test. What can I say? I just love History.

100. I have been high only once and I hated it. I'm not touching any drugs ever again. I think they're really stupid and just pointless. But I won't ever look down on anyone who is into them. It's their choice, not mine.

101. My favorite food is mashed potatoes. I could live on that because I could really eat that every day.
