About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn about the world around me

ABOUT ME

Im open minded i s'pose. most people agree and if they dont theyre wrong and you shouldnt even listen to them. i like going places and meeting people. i try to get around as much as possible and spread myself too thin. but i am pretty good about emailing people i think.

PHILOSOPHY

im here and this life has been great to me. i try to make a difference by doing the things i can to help others. really im going out into the world and meeting people and doing things just so i can go home eventually to my parents dinner table on a night that all my siblings are home around dinner time and sit and tell stories with them and compete with my brothers to try and make my mother laugh so hard that she spits her food out onto my father in a fit of laughter. thats my goal

Interests

I really enjoy juggling and firebreathing
(even when I lose my beard because of it). Learning languages and listening to cool music also classify as things I am interested in.
