I'm a workout junkie - always lifting weights and running. I like to party sometimes and I love to dance (especially salsa). My real passion is the work I do with inner-city kids in Chicago. I enjoy deep philosophical and political discussions. Writing poetry is a hobby that brings out my creative side. I travel all over the world and I'm always looking for the next adventure. I guess I can be very active at times, but I also love to just chill.

I like driving fast with the windows down and the radio up. I prefer singing in the car to the shower. I like cheap pitchers of beer at dive bars as much as getting all dolled up to go out dancing as much as chilling on the couch in my favorite sweats with a glass of wine, some dark chocolate, and a cheesy romantic comedy. I like books and movies and movies made from books, but not books made from movies.
- Jeffrey Chen
I dislike describing myself -- it's so much easier just to talk to someone to find out what they're really about. I'll try with some basics -- I'm friendly, honest, and analytical, with a goofy sense of humor and my heart on my sleeve. Oh, yes, and I love movies.

I've never thought of the process of choosing your friends as a selection process. Rather, my friends are often those who are very different from myself. I like to think that I'm there for the people I care about, even if time has past between seeing each other. Since I've moved around so much in the recent past, I try and keep my friends close to me.
