CURRENT MISSION

academic and creative madness

ABOUT ME

i'm young, interested in diverse things, looking forward to much adventure. trying to produce art and learn all that i can. found out about this site from a friend in budapest but it crashed shortly thereafter. i am hoping to start traveling again in the next six months, so this is a great community to regroup with.

PHILOSOPHY

O CITY! INFAMOUS, CRUEL, UNDESERVING
CITY OF STONE AND LOST LOVES
THOSE CHILDREN'S EYES
I AM BLIND TO THE SKY
LET THE LIGHT SHINE
IT IS TIME TO STOP THE CLOCKS!
MOST PEOPLE WANT TO LOVE BUT THEY CAN'T
THAT IS THE CRIME
I WANT TO BE WITH ANGELS!
-jack micheline
