CURRENT MISSION

Travel vicariously

ABOUT ME

Still figuring out for myself who I really am. I recently watched a video of me and my friends right before we left for college and I almost didn't recognize myself. I'd really like to rediscover that old, less inhibited side of my personality. Otherwise, I'm down to earth, thoughtful, idealistic, maybe a little shy at first but I open up quickly. I'm pretty caught up with school at the moment, but I try to not let it consume all of my time. I always tell myself to live life with no regrets but if I were to regret something it would be not taking off time from school to travel. I'm hoping that hosting will shake things up and inspire me to do more of my own traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

You have been told also that life is darkness, and in your weariness you echo what was said by the weary.

And I say that life is indeed darkness save when there is urge,

And all urge is blind save when there is knowledge,

And all knowledge is vain save when there is work,

And all work is empty save when there is love;

And when you work with love you bind yourself to yourself, and to one another, and to God / Flying Spaghetti Monster.
