About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the ride while I'm on it...

ABOUT ME

I am from Africa. I like to think that someday I'm going to make an impact on the world. I am a morning person. If I could, I would spend my life running around the planet. I like to lay on grass and stare at the sky. I believe that everything happens for a reason. I want to live every day, never regretting something I didn't do. I'm scared that I'm going to fall in the drains below the sidewalks. I love soymilk and hate cheese. I'm petrified of being squished between the shelves at work. I'm proud to be an Indian. I miss home and all the people who were a part of it. I love good food (im a fat kid at heart). I think that the number of hair colors here is crazy. I only eat pudding from the convex side of a spoon. I believe that children can be taught to love. I'm one of the biggest nerds you'll meet. I love to party with good friends. I have laughing fits, and if you can induce them, I will/probably love you. Unless you're just funny looking, but I'll still love you. I want to know better music to listen to. I study psychology, but don't ask me to analyse you. I believe in Africa. I believe in myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a game. We should all laugh, play and not take things too seriously. We should live in the present, not the past or future. We should infiltrate people with positivity and make them remember that its ok to be human.

Interests

Adventures, new experiences, people, travelling, being with my family for the few weeks I get to see them, reading, being laaaaaazy, studying (yes, studying!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Parasailed over an ocean during sunset!

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn anything anyone is willing to teach me. I'm a good student. I'm not a great teacher, but I hope to learn how to become one. I can tell stories about my experiences and hopefully, someone can learn a thing or two.
