So far im still single hoping and counting the days as they go by hoping to meet my true romeo but i can wait. Good things come to those who wait! Im an easy going person i get along with all kinds of people, I have too look what i do for a living!!!. Yes i get bitched at, yelled at, you name it I can handle it....I THINK! A lot of my friends say that i'm an honest, easy going person and a true friend! When it comes to friends I go out of my way to help them out. I've seen and been throught alot in my career so friends to me are very important. So im happy to meet all new friends from all parts of the globe mail me a post card to PO Box 441 Boardman, OR 97818 if I get one from you i'll do the same. None of my friends in my hometown know im gay its very hard to keep things to myself, I wish I could tell them but in a small town where you know everybody I would rather keep it to myself. Only two friends know one a best friend who i have known since grade school finally knows cus i told him it was hard but he was alright with it and is pretty cool..and other one well he was snoopy and forced me to tell him so i don't care very much for him but friends are friends.

I graduated from Riverside High School with a class size of 69 students (my favorite number)when I was in High school they didn'nt have the sports that like (wrestling, soccer) so I kept busy with the high school's Pep-Band, Concert Band, Concert Choir, Jazz Choir, O.S.S.O.M.(Oregon Students S on the Move i forgot what the middle S stands for) Pep-Club, I was the first Male Cheerleader my Senior year for Football, Basketball, mascot for my junior year. I did do much of the sports but I did go to them to support and show school spirit. So i guess im not a jock LMAO.

In 1990 this was the year where I started to pave the wave for who I am now. In the summer of 1990 I went to the Oregon Business Week in Klamath Falls, Oregon. I went to this conference cus i thought i wanted to study business adminstration. It was ok but I got to meet a lot of new friends and cute guys too. I have kept in conact with him as of December he's still in the Peace Corps in South Africa soon to come home early 1998. Anyways, when I got back from this conference about couple days later I joined the Boardman Fire Department at age 17. I was given strict duties which ment i couldn't do anything yet. But a month later i tured 18, then i did all the training and actually fought the fires. My first fire was a natural cover fire (grass fire) along I-84 a train came through and threw sparks and ignited about 4miles of grass and the wind was blowing which was not helping any and it was only three of us fighting the blaze. When I got back to the station I knew this what I wanted to do. Then school started in september 1990-91 school year, first thing they had up was a sign up sheet for a class a First Responder class(lower than an EMT) I signed up. So instead of sports I was busy with the fire department and ambulance. While all my friends where at parties I was either behind a hose line fighting a blaze, or behind the ambulance treating a injured or sick pt. I often regret it sometimes cus we only live a young life once, Now i wish i was 18 again so i can live the life of the 18y/o. I say that because i grew up rather quickly I had the additude of a 25-30 at the age of 18.

On November 24, 1994 I started my new full-time job, a 911/police/fire/ambulance regional dispatcher. I have heard the funniest to the worst call over the years I love doing the job and would keep on doing it until something prevents me from doing it. I cover 4 counties 911/police/fire/ambulance emergenices its alot of workload but sometimes we have two dispatchers on at a shift but there are two days where i handle them by myself. Over the past years I have seen and been through a whole lot, I have at an accident at one of my classmates who died later at the hosiptal. I been at my sisters classmates and my friends car accident which they both died at the scene, what gets me the most is that i didn't recongnize the vehicle which i should of cus it was always over at our house when my sister invited them over. What was worse is telling my sister who knew i was going to a very accident cus she heard the tones go off. then later tell her that it was her friends that died. I could tell you awhole lot but I rather talk about something else. So im a 24y/o hispanic male gay in a small town (Boardman, oregon) pop. 3,000 give or take. a volunteer Firefighter/EMt-Basic, a full-time 911 regional dispatcher, I teach first aid and cpr, I love hiking, mountain biking, the ocean, the outdoors, rollerblading, jet skiing, wanna learn snowboarding, snow skiing. hummmmm what else............I think i'll end it here cus i don't know what i said i might change it later LOL updated 1-16-98 at 220hrs
