CURRENT MISSION

Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you!

ABOUT ME

I am a full time Ph.D student of mathematical statistics, who dabbles in a bunch of things from films to activism to watching random strangers walk by as I stand on the street corner and smoke cigarettes. I've quit smoking a million times but I am not a good quitter, you see. I feel the current world order needs to be blotted out and a more egalitarian world should emerge. The world should really be without the artificial borders created on the maps!

PHILOSOPHY

To quote Donovan, "Freedom is a word I seldom use without thinking." It's been my constant quest to understand that oft-used more often misused word. Can we stop throwing bombs? Admittedly, there is a lot of fucked up things in the world. Can we strive to make it more affable? And yes, let's not forget the role of humour in all this!
