About Me

CURRENT MISSION

experience as much as possible and create as positive an experience as possible for those around me

ABOUT ME

I recently quit my job and moved out to go to a wilderness EMT program, i finished and am now trying to decide where to move so i can try to find work... and hopefully it works out as easily as it does in my head... I like to study and learn as much as possible about as many things as possible. I love exchanging ideas and basicly experiencing as much as I can with this life I have been given. Im something of an athletic, outdoorsy, technogeek, bookworm. Im rather shy but love throwing myself into situations where i have to socialize. Im afraid of heights but trying to learn to rock climb and have gone sky diving. Im one of the calmest persons you may ever meet and wouldnt hurt a fly but i like to study martial arts...im just kinda strange but "normal" people kinda scare me so its alright.

PHILOSOPHY

well I try to live by the golden rule "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" but there is far too much to my personal philosophy to state in the time i have left on the internet right now...
