CURRENT MISSION

I lived in one city for 22 years, and now I'm itching for adventures!

ABOUT ME

I just finished university in the US, and I'm spending a year in Paris before I begin PhD astronomy courses in Santa Barbara

PHILOSOPHY

Take what you can get and give what you can let go.
Forgiveness is what separates humans from animals.
Living and dying are two words for the same thing.
Don't let the past or the future weigh you down.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies that aren't too serious. Everything from Dumb And Dumber to Miyamoto. I'm down with most any music. I played in a japanese rock band, we mostly covered The Pillows. Fav book is A Confederacy of Dunces.
