PHILOSOPHY

break dance, not hearts!

life is not always the party we expected, so we might as well dance while we're here!

i think it's important to learn from anyone and everyone you encounter.
sometime the shortest interactions with others are the most intriguing.

learn to love where you are, and if you don't .. leave.

having a plan is sometimes detrimental to the adventurous spirit.

it's better to hurt someone with the truth than comfort them with a lie.

Music, Movies, and Books

i love funk music, tons of indie music, but also some jazz and classic stuff. for some reason i enjoy listening to frank sinatra, while walking down the street on a sunny day. any sort of ska and reggae toons totally get me goin. i love some good old electronica... some daft punk is always a nice little wake-me-up. led zeppelin will always be as close to my heart as the beatles.... the talking heads, the smiths.

i am always reading... pretty much anything i can get my hands on.

ed norton is my favourite actor. any movie with him is a winner for me.
