CURRENT MISSION

Experience what life is like outside of what I know it to be... Also, I love people, and I try to meet and talk to anyone I cross paths with.

ABOUT ME

I am an eccentric person with a tendency to try and take the craziest route possible. I LOVE music. I love people that play music. I love being inspired by people who are passionate about their craft. I believe that art is a representation of the social climate of the time. I want to meet and talk to anyone I cross paths with for as long as I can as long as it stays fresh. If it stops being fresh, I will probably make an exit for myself :) I LOVE cooking. I want to cook for you. I want you to cook for me. I want to eat your favorite foods. PLEASE, let's go on food adventures together. I will eat anything you throw at me. Well actually, people call me a food snob sometimes because I refuse to eat low quality fast food haha. But I LOVE quality foods.

I am always looking to have new experiences and try new things. I like being part of an experience that not everyone gets to have. It almost makes me have a feeling of exclusivity.

Too Long; Didnt Read = I <3 Music, Cooking, and People. I want to meet you.

BTW no matter who you are, we can probably find something to talk about.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do what's right for you. Don't let yourself be judged, and try and grab as many experiences on this earth while you're still here.

Let's be friends.. regardless of how alike we are. I always try to connect with people on some level, even if they are the complete opposite of me.

Why waste life, when you can waste death.
(Modest Mouse said that not me)
