CURRENT MISSION

Surviving summer school then wwoofing my way across Canada!

ABOUT ME

I moved to Canada two years ago from Georgia and am currently studying Physical and Environmental Geography and Environmental Studies at the University of Toronto. Originally born in New Jersey I moved around quite a bit living in southeast asia for a while, then back to America where i moved three more times.
I feel like i don't quite fit in with any one particular type of person, but enjoy being around artistic types of all sorts. I have yet to figure out my "mission" in life, or even if a mission is needed from us at all. I'd put myself more on the introverted side of the polar spectrum, but of course with everything else in life, depends on the environment I'm in.
Besides that I have two talents in life which include whistling, balancing things on my knee. Although if asked to perform, 9 times out of 10 i get stage fright and will fail to impress. I also have an uncanny ability to put myself in awkward situations, and have yet to master the art of getting out of them with style and grace. Other than that my celebrity crush is Jon Stewart, and if Physical Geography goes down the drain, I'm banking on a job as a fact finder for snapple.

Interests

Summertime in Canada, starting things and never finishing them especially instruments (shallow experience with the piano, guitar, saxophone, and ukulele), late night bike rides*, fruit sandwiches, Passive House, evolutionary biology, eccentric people, etc. I also used to have a list of all my favourite words, im interested in finding out where that went.

*Until further notice, this interest is on suspension due to recent events.
