CURRENT MISSION

Be More Awesome

ABOUT ME

I'm tall and pale, wonky-eyed and graceless, booksmart and occasionally street-stupid. I wear bow ties. I try to look like an absent-minded professor and instead get told I look like the lead singer of Nickelback. So it goes.

I love cats, revealing awkward silences, sharing, daring to be different and the feeling of newness. I've had 6 or 7 different addresses in the last year and a half. I believe in love and peace and respect and all that hippie nonsense.

As far as "What I do" goes, I'm a 4th year undergrad at MUN completing a BA in Linguistics. I decided to move here about a year ago from BC because I really wasn't doing much at the time and I needed to kickstart my life. This was a huge success. Newfoundland is great, and I've done some wonderful things and met fantastic people since I came here. Let the adventure continue, yeah?

PHILOSOPHY

I'm not entirely sure what to put here. These kind of questions make me nauseous. But, I suppose I can say that, since it seems like we only get one trip on this ball, you might as well make the most out of it, and do what you can to improve the situation of said ball and its inhabitants at the same time.

Intereses

I have too many interests to count. I am easily engaged in new things. Right now I spend a lot of my time reading great books, planning theoretical adventures, playing board games, hiking, havin' a time, thinking about cooking, and ignoring my correspondence.
