Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To tackle my fears, learn more about myself and others and realise there's neither- we're the same.
PHILOSOPHY
Existential, that’s how I see things at the moment. It works for me. Decide to make meaning out of it or don’t. Creating something is more interesting for me. I’ve been in and out of Buddhist philosophy since my teens.
It’s made a comeback recently and I’ve been doing my research, realizing how simple it all is, laughing, forgetting to laugh, getting angry.
Waking up can be difficult. It’s like the real first step.
Interests
Began learning sword fighting and archery this summer.
I've always had an interest in art. Did a year in animation and realised it wasn't my cup of tea. I've made some great friends from it that are now in the business, making beautiful giggles!
I’ve been back to college since and am currently studying Fine Art in Dublin. I write short stories, poems and cross breeds of the two.
There’s a website if you’re interested; www.mykvance.com

Music, Movies, and Books
What Dreams May Come. I hear Huckabees. Jeff, who lives at Home. Finding Nemo. Wes Aderson's films. One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest. Interpol, King Charles, Katie Kim (the cellist is a Godess!), First Aid Kit, Nina Kinert, Ane Brun, Kings of Leon (mainly the first two...) Savha, American Gods, JPod, Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaimen- The Sandman, yum!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One amazing thing... I don't want to limit it...
We'll go with a trip to Venice last year. That was amusing...
Ah, any hike up the mountains is an amazing thing...
Teach, Learn, Share
Education! That's where it's at- or at least it should be. I'd learn to love some dance. I'm told I'm good but it's just for giggles.
I could teach the basics of sword fighting. Germanic roots I think- hand and a half sword. Archery. We'd need things for that though. The swords- it's all about the footwork.
Been told I know a thing or two about art. Drawing, painting, etching, sculpture, photoshop (self taught and learning)
