About Me

CURRENT MISSION

catch up on the new season of desperate housewives, one tree hill, and lost

ABOUT ME

i'm not a jock, or a geek...just dorky.
love playing guitar and piano and listening to mostly rock and oldies.
love archery, american football, basketball, and keeping a healthy lifestyle.
i was born in manila, philippines but moved to california when i was 4. been living in san diego ever since.
graduated from UCSD w/ an engineering degree. now i'm thinking about joining the navy so i can travel the world and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

all is fair in love, and war, and couches...
all you need is love...and couches...
i'd like to live life to the fullest, but i need to make some money 1st...to buy a nice couch...
i learned this from a wise monkey..."you scratch my back, i'll scratch yers"...(maybe on the couch)
thought of the century..."i've killed this couch thing, haven't i?"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i believe in the golden rule of couchsurfing. don't expect to surf a couch w/out putting yer own out there for others...simple as that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i'm new to this thing, but i've already hosted CS users in my home in the past. so hopefully if i need to crash, a fellow CS-er's couch will break my fall...
