CURRENT MISSION To enjoy the beautiful people, places, sounds, sights, tastes, and smells that this planet has to offer. ABOUT ME I'm a personable, shy, adventurous, reserved, pensive, impulsive extroverted introvert. I've been working on a Ph.D now for almost five years and the end is in sight. I play piano for a living too. I love to read, love to dance, love to see/hear live music and catch all forms of art every chance I get. PHILOSOPHY Why do I live my life? I don't know...that's a tough question, because I don't think many of us think about *why* we live, we simply do live. Maybe living life is the easiest thing to do because you just do it -- we're doing it right now. That said, it's my personal philosophy (if I can call it that) to make those mundane aspects of "just living life" that much more enjoyable. I think about it like adding hot pepper sauce to a cheese sandwich: why not? I mean, it may not be delicious but it's at least interesting, right?
