About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go places and learn things

ABOUT ME

I like to think I'm a pretty good person. I'm open to trying new things (I TRY to try everything at least once, given the opportunity... ever so occasionally I wuss out) and love going new places.

I would've liked to grow up in a circus, but at the moment I'm settling for life as a student instead. Circus skills have more or less eluded me so far... except juggling, which I guess is a start.

Sometimes I'm quiet.

PHILOSOPHY

There's so much to do and much see. I'm in love with it all and some besides. The night won't end until I'm done and tomorrow's the beginning of a new day.

Interests

I'm interested in a little bit of everything! I love sports, especially football, which I try and play lots and lots of. I really want to try more extreme sports. As of yet I haven't had the opportunity, but I'm lining up bungee jumping and sky-diving. I like being up really high places... this could be compensating for my, er, shortness. I like kayaking, rock-climbing and archery. I also juggle and know a couple of magic tricks (not very tricky ones!). I'm currently trying my hand at gymnastics with mixed success - but it's great fun.

I also love languages. Despite a slow start, I want to learn as many as I can!

Music, Movies, and Books

One of my favorite books of all time is The Alchemist... if you haven't read it yet, try it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was almost eaten by wild dogs once! Although... that didn't take much "doing" on my part... Going hang-gliding was pretty amazing though :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I might be able to teach you to juggle. :D

I say 'might' because it really just depends on how much you practice :) It's not that hard and I can show you how to start, but you'll have to put a little bit of time in!
