CURRENT MISSION

Coming up with clever things to say in text boxes like this one. Is this failure or success? I can't tell.

ABOUT ME

I'm a medical student and writer. I am a food nut. I like people (or at least the ones I've met so far) and I play well with others (or at least that's what they tell me).

PHILOSOPHY

Disclaimer: I try not to take things too seriously. That being said, I believe that we are all here to help each other get through life, perhaps more specifically to find some meaning and some joy. I am kind of a libertarian, and a non-sectarian Christian (that means I don't belong to a church). I am kind of a hippie too - I love the earth, the outdoors, music, animals, granola, health food, and the Lord of the Rings.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

You can sleep on my couch anytime! But depending on school and schedules I may be really busy - medical school is hard.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went to northwestern CT last summer but I haven't made it out from under my rock (you know, the one made out of textbooks and United States Medical Licensure Examinations - it's REALLY heavy).

1. Energy is neither created nor destroyed. 2. Entropy always increases. 3. As you approach absolute zero, things assume a state of minimal disorder.

Charles P. Snow's version for the humanities:
1. You cannot win. 2. You cannot break even. 3. You cannot get out of the game.

Comprehend the totality of these, the laws of thermodynamics, and you will know how to maximize your economy without befuddling anyone else's.
