About Me

CURRENT MISSION

fight the banks, be a good person.. And have a great time, discovering new things. Learning as much as I can!
Lately - discover Burners ("Burning-man") from around the world :)

ABOUT ME

Where do I begin?
LOVE metal and rock music. Love sports (watching and participating).
I am active in a non-profit dedicated to changing the economy and taking the power away from banks.
I love traveling but haven't done it in years because I was a poor student. Now that I am no longer that - it's time to get back to it :)
I LOVE to laugh and make others laugh. I will laugh about ANYTHING really. Really easy-going, love meeting new people. I'm not shy at all and will open up to anyone who wants to know anything about me.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that people should be allowed to do what seems right for them, as long as they don't harm others.
Legalize marijuana. It's time to stop treating millions of normal people as criminals.
Enjoy life!
Always laugh and smile :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:
Ender's game, Ender's Shadow, all Discworld books, Good Omens, the Hobbit, 1984, Hunger games, books by Anne McCaffery, Orson Scott Card, Douglas Adams (RIP), Larry Nivven, and many, many, many more. Oh, did I metntion Ender's game? no? Ender's game!

The Shawshank Redemption is the best movie ever made. IMDB agrees with me.
Anything by Monty python. Red dwarf, Coupling, the fast show, how I met your mother, The Wire (wow!), Oz..
"This.. is the daily show with Jon Stewart!", Colbert Report.

Music - It's the stuff of life really.. Nothing quite moves me like good music. Basically it's mainly Rock or Metal but really I'll listen to anything.. almost. My dad is a classical conductor so I roll with that too.
A few examples of bands I love - Avenged Sevenfold, Incubus, Hoobastank, Atreyu, A day to remember, Lostprophets, we came as romans, we are the ocean... there are LOTS more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a counselor on an AMAZING camp in the USA where we basically went all around the country by bus for a full summer. Every day I saw amazing things and met incredible people. Best summer ever!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach ANYBODY basic to advanced biology. I've found that people who were never interested in it were fascinated when I spoke to them about it.
Also - monetary change and reform - very important subject to me.
