About Me

CURRENT MISSION

studying thinking traveling feeling being seeing learning reading exploring swimming shitting walking crying laughing meet greet

ABOUT ME

dasein and deja-vous

conscientious of people--
hear and listen more than i talk
im not good with words
nor do i know if they represent me

"how strange it is to be anything at all"

--really now, im just this girl trying to understand something of the world, thinks a little too much, has good intentions, and may be too idealistic.

im not verified because my mom took all my money out of my bank account, leaving me stranded and now im just too afraid to put anything so there aint nothing in there to donate, perdon/ joke of my grandfather i find pertinent: money talks, mine always says goodbye.

PHILOSOPHY

introspective / sincerely sharing my awkwardness
there are a lot of people in this world
i believe in the universe not the universal.

"ningún día debe ser igual a otro:
la humanidad es tan semejante al mundo animal...
ya la rutina es uno de sus más detestables privilegios."
-- beatriz guido

"each one of us has within [him] a whole world of things, each [man] of us [his] own special world. and how can we ever come to an understanding if i put in the words i utter the sense and value of things as i see them; while you who listen to me must inevitably translate them according to the conception of things each one of you has within [himself]. we think we understand each other, but we never really do."
