CURRENT MISSION
Get to where I want to be.
ABOUT ME
I'm a college student in Boston where I am a Graphic Design and Multimedia Studies dual major ( I get to be an artist AND work with computers while occasionally getting paid for it). I love (good) design, the internet, college humor, video games, cooking, and the Office
I love comic books and graphic novels, hot chocolate and the Beatles. Walking around Boston is a favorite pastime of mine, occasionally when the mood strikes me I climb trees. I'm a radio DJ by night for my school's radio station, my friends and I have a show with typical humorous banter coupled with atrocious sex advice. I'm generally regarded as a fun-loving and outgoing gal , considered to be slightly shy and quirky. I'm a youtube starlet in my own right, I can probably quote more internet references than you. I love the typeface Helvetica.
I grew up in the South, that comes with a full arsenal of western shirts, gun slinging abilities and the ownership of a slingshot. Sometimes the accent comes out, but only if you know how to trigger it. I'm also 1/4 chinese, this means I can whip up fried rice, dumplings, and hot and sour soup like there's no tomorrow -- I am also a master with chopsticks.
I'm typically travelling about to go see bands that haven't taken the time to stop in Boston. I'm a big fan of live music.
I like making videos, I just got on a new website called Vimeo that I really enjoy. Not a whole lot on there right now though.

I'm also a beta tester for a few websites, WeBot and Miro are just two of them. I'm a huge fan of all things tech related...and podcasts.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in living each day to it's fullest, that sunshine equals happiness, that sunflowers and hippos prove that God has a sense of humor, that everyone has a right to their own beliefs.I respect the ways of the Jedi.
