ABOUT ME

I'm 19 years old and aah! theres too little time so much to doo ! picasso was 19 when he went to paris! I'm american, of mexican parents, je parle francais aussi, i have 2 dogs, im moving to oregon in a few months, life ho!

Am extremely adaptable!

PHILOSOPHY

My legs are itching for want of walking! my body wants to exert energy, not be flattened by the black hole that is everyday life, even though i can go off on a tangent on how everyday life is so beautiful, i just as soon fall out of love with it. I need to do something ! and comfort is my greatest enemy.

I refuse to believe the world is any bit mundane.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

standing on the edge of a rocky enclave with the whole sky seemingly falling down on me, rain seep seep seeping though my clothes til it met my skin, there's nothing more amazing than being caught in the midst of nature's fury

Teach, Learn, Share

i know a lot about persian miniature paintings, movies, california (if anybody has questions about getting around etc, where to visit), i can write and edit a mean essay

ive always wanted to learn to sail! and im always excited to learn to cook different things. also, i'm keen on learning many more languages.

i believe in humanity! despite being in dubious battle! and this i'd like to share with others!
