save the world?

ABOUT ME

I'm about to graduate from college and face the real world. I've been living in New York for the past four years, and I think I'll be here for a couple more.

I studied Economics in college but I think I want to go to medical school. I can be a bit of an idealist.

I unfortunately don't have the time to travel, but I'd be happy to host someone who'd like to visit New York. I had traveled around Europe in the last two years, and the random people I met there were incredible. So I'd like to meet new people from out of this country.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever happens, happens.

Especially in New York, I find that people can get irritated incredibly easily. Usually it's over little things, like getting rained on or locking yourself out of your apartment. You can either accept that the universe is against you that day and mope around, or you could just see it as an unfortunate coincidence. Don't antagonize the world if you missed your subway this morning.
