CURRENT MISSION

Be happy~

ABOUT ME

I tend to see the glass full- not half full or half empty- completely full. We are alive and capable and that's reason enough to be happy most for most of our lives. I believe pain isn't evil, it's something we learn from and this is where I stand now. I've learned to let go of the things I can't change and accept the beauty all around me.

I love to laugh, make people laugh, I'm pretty blunt at times, but never fake, I enjoy thought provoking conversations, I try to be as informed as I can, I'm open-minded, I'm a bit of a contradiction because although I can be outgoing, I am also shy, I know how to behave and when to be rowdy :)

PHILOSOPHY

Life's far too important to be taken seriously.

Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) After 21 years of life and visiting Panama, I finally decided to take my first taxi. My friend stops me a random taxi and after attempting to be social and make some conversation, I find out the taxi driver is my cousin.

2) I was staying in a hut in one of the many islands in San Blas, Panama with no electricity. As I step out of my hut, I naturally look up and I can't believe my eyes. The stars! I have not the words to begin to describe how beautiful and immense the stars looked. At that moment, my problems disappeared for a little, as I realized we're so fucking small.
