Date men and women from United States / California / Emeryville, 25 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I've been on here for a little while and find it hilarious how all the profiles I read are nearly identical. Yes I know you love to laugh and that you like to go out but are also cool with a night in watching a movie with a bowl of popcorn and a bottle of wine. Who isn't?
I find it much more interesting to be a straight shooter. I've lived here for about eight months and think it's ok. Rent is stupid, most people are shallow and way too into themselves, and the bart is dumb for shutting down before last call. That all being said, the cultures, the food, the drinks, and the scenery are excellent. This is why many of my weekends are spent walking or riding around the various neighborhoods trying to find the best crowds, views, and flavors.
When I'm not out finding those things I'm either at work designing robotic medical devices for the spinal cord rehabilitation field or just piddling around with small art projects in my apartment.
Every week my old friends and I get together for sushi and jazz night. It's a great break from the day to day.
I'm an absolute sucker for a set of large, brown eyes. Also, someone that is eager to learn something new to make someone's day is an immediate attention getter for me. Most of the time I would much rather make someone else smile or just be happy. It's definitely the most satisfying feeling in the world. Seeing that trait in my significant other instantly puts a smile on my face. (Granted, I'm not talking about working soup kitchens or joining the peace corps of anything) Just be a nice person.
Random stuff I'm into: sailing, motorcycles, jazz music, cooking, wheeling in my jeep, sporting clays, and general new experiences.
If you're into any of these things or a guy that can punctuate, cook, make you laugh, and be there for you when you need, let me know. We'll see how it goes.
