Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy life and do whatever interests me most.
ABOUT ME
I like the feeling you get after a thunderstorm when the sky is clearing up and a cool breeze hits you in the face. ^_^
I absolutely love traveling. I've been to India, Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, all over the US, a few Carribean islands and the north part of South America... And I still want to visit more.
The people I've met and places I've been to are a big part of my life. Its all one big adventure. I'll try anything at least once or twice.
PHILOSOPHY
Do whatever you want as long as it doesn't impinge upon others.

Music, Movies, and Books
Too many to list.
...but here's a select few:
Books: Pretty much anything Kazuo Koike or Muramaki put out. Harry Potter. I think I own almost all of Clive Barker's books, James Clavell too. Journey to the West and most, but not all of Terry Pratchet. I've read pretty much all of the dune series except for the last couple. My bookshelves are overflowing. Can't pick em all.
Movies: Moulin Rouge, Battle Royale, A clockwork orange, V for Vendetta, most Miyazaki movies, Robin Hood-Men in Tights, Amelie, tons of old and new martial arts movies and i kind of have a soft spot for korean dramas. Captain and Commander, Trainspotting, Memoirs of a Geisha, 300, Sin City, Lust, Caution... hm. I kind of have a whole bunch of movies around too.
Music: Erm... have over 9000 songs in my mp3 player. Even I don't know what all I listen to.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Skydiving and scubadiving are two of my favorite experiences so far.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach basic animation and digital storytelling. Also how to play go, checkers, and chess. Or the piano... but that might take a bit more time :)
I want to learn everything!
