CURRENT MISSION

Become an English teacher whilst maintaining my sanity and creative pursuits (writing poetry, playing guitar, etc...)

ABOUT ME

I have been living and teaching English in Chaing Mai since April of 2008. I teach high school students at a Thai private school. It's alright. I play guitar and harmonica and sometimes play shows around town. I graduated in 2007 with a BA in English with an emphasis on creative writing, and try and write as many stories, poems, songs, haikus, free verse, etc etc in the little spare time that I have. I love meeting new people, and have found that the CS community embraces my mantra of open-heartedness and unconditional acceptance of others.

PHILOSOPHY

"To me the converging objects of the universe perpetually flow,
All are written to me, and I must get what the writing means."
-Walt Whitman

--and/or--

"because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..." --Jack Kerouac
