About Me

CURRENT MISSION

indulging my senses

ABOUT ME

I currently go to the New School, where I am focusing on environmental studies. I work additionally in jewelery making. I really enjoy symposing or just having a good conversation. I like to crack jokes about blue-green aglae. I love traveling and just being on the move. It gives a purpose to life.

PHILOSOPHY

Smile at everything that makes you happy, don't hide. Laugh at everything that makes you sad, time moderates.

Music, Movies, and Books

the mixed up files of mrs. basil e frankweiler (book), marie antoinette (movie).
i really enjoy all kinds of music. Right now there is alot of MGMT on the playlist with the strokes.
The Marie Antoinette sound track as well as the movie is amazing.
I recently saw Burn After Reading and found it amusing. I really love Desperately Seeking Susan and L'Auberge Espagnol. Life Aquatic and Royal Tennenbaums are high on my list.
I read a lot of Lost Generation writers like Fitzgerald and Hemingway. I also enjoy Sinclair Lewis' Babbitt.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw Karen Blixen's house in Kenya. I am a huge Karen Blixen fan.
