CURRENT MISSION

study, graduate, explore the world, make people laugh, eat, wine and cheese

ABOUT ME

I'm a student about to enter the last year of college (sad face). Love to cook. I've played the violin for the past nine or ten years. Running, tennis, rollerblading, cycling, dancing, driving--I like to be on the move. I'm really sarcastic and easy going. Love learning new languages

PHILOSOPHY

"Excess on occasion is exhilarating. It prevents moderation from acquiring the deadening effect of a habit."
-W. Somerset Maugham
