About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Satisfy myself!

ABOUT ME

I'm Saigonese.
A freakin' flawless Aquarian.
I was born in a wrong country, but luckily in a right city. I'm delusional as much as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

"Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future" - Oscar Wilde
[I don't read Oscar Wilde but he came up with lots of great quotes, what did he do really???]
