CURRENT MISSION To have an awesome fall englandtrip ABOUT ME “When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be” - Lao Tzu PHILOSOPHY Never give up. If it doesn't work out, try harder. If it still doesn't work out change your approach. Often the real obstacle is an invisible one within you. Anything is possible if you truly want it. Nothing is mistake if you grew from it. Minus a few drinks I've never used a substance in my life. Oddly enough I have no particular reason for this choice /^_^/

My Interests
I've been a (mostly) raw vegan for the last year, I'm constantly fascinated by the energetic and emotional effects food creates within the body and I practice on a daily basis to increase my sensitivity to those subtle worlds. I'm currently learning how to make raw chocolate and I LOVE LOVE LOVE coconuts. Outside of the food realm, psychology neurology art music perception and body language have endlessly fascinated me. I'm hoping to begin a vision science masters at UC berkley shortly and embarking an international internship with the next generation of 3D film technology. I regularly play card game tournaments and teach or practice both bodywork and martial arts...all of which collectively feed into my current career path; acupuncture. Oh right, but most of all I love hot springs!!! Well enough about me whabout you? ;)
