About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To Collect as many Life Experiences as I can.
ABOUT ME
I never say the phrase "I'm bored." I find that phrase one of the most annoying phrases out there. I don't know if I go out seeking fun or if fun finds me but I have a good time in most situations.
I have never used drugs but I don't care what others choose to do.
I'm really into learning new sports every chance I get. I played Korfbal with KV Lemmer for a year. I have recently taken up Ultimate Frisbee.
I'm the kinda person who is best to get to know in person. You can always check out my blog if you want to know more about me.

PHILOSOPHY
Since middle school I have been saying that "What doesn't kill you makes a great story." Because it doesn't always make you stronger but when things go wrong there is always a great story.
