About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find a substainable meaning in life.

ABOUT ME

A complex bundle of ironies.

I am open-minded and just plain quirky. I believe that travelling and interacting with the locals is the best way to learn about a country and their culture, so I always try to befriend locals when I travel. I am also pretty crazy and adventurous. I majored in Chinese Philosophy in University so I think I make a pretty interesting conversation partner :D

Rather than me teling you how awesome I am, I will share really interesting quotes of what others have said of me:

"You are like a Babushka"
"This girl is fucking loca"
"You are such a hippie"
"You ask really piercing questions. You should be a political interviewer of presidential candidates."
"You are the most unasian Asian ever"
"Hey dumplings girl" (on my unhealthy obsession with Eastern European dumplings)

PLEASE DO NOT HIT ON ME VIA CS. You will be ignored or reported.

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once, live it to the fullest.

The future is Schrodinger's cat. The possibilities are infinite and waiting for you to unravel :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love political and criminal thrillers eg by David Baldacci and Keigo Higashino. For movies, I love dude flicks like Hangover and random artistic flicks such as The Dreamers but I also enjoy thrillers and action flicks. I love all kinds of music. I love indie rock and am also a big fan of Jason Mraz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being alive after all the crazy and unsafe stuff I had done unknowingly :P

Teach, Learn, Share

Buddhism/Daoism (none of the western self-help book crap)
Sarcasm (a wise person once stated: like sex, when done correctly, the participants thoroughly enjoy it but when done wrongly, you just want to kill yourself)
Life Philosophy
Cooking (I am pretty good at preparing Japanese and Chinese cuisine)
The art of stoning (no drugs needed!)
