About Me

CURRENT MISSION

When the time comes, that my life flashes before my eyes, I want to make sure it is worth watching

ABOUT ME

I am slowly figuring out what makes me happy.

I like not knowing what I will be doing next year.

I am a man of science, with hedonistic tendencies.

Discovering new music and films keeps me busy, if you help me in this endeavour, I will like you.

It has been said that I am stubborn, I refuse to accept this.

Sums it up pretty well...

PHILOSOPHY

“He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.”

It's a cruel and random world, but the chaos is all so beautiful.

Music, Movies, and Books

Films -

Ones that make you think, challenge your perceptions, or contain those scenes that completely captivate you for whatever reason.

Some that do that for me...

Books -

Popular science books have been known to fascinate me.

I tend to choose non-fiction containing mind blowing knowledge over a gripping novel.

There are hundreds of books that I would like to say that I have read.
