About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to not get deported from China

ABOUT ME

Im a friendly open minded young man, who has travelled quite alot but have a awful lot left to do, im artisticly minded and am doing a illustration course next year. I love music,literature, film, art, my friends and a good sense of humor.
Saying this i am a bit of an intravert, and often dont like huge crowds, i can deal with crowds but a place like a night club with music i dont enjoy will drive me insane.

PHILOSOPHY

havnt really got much of a philosophy, i just bumble through life seeing what happens, but its always a good thing to keep a level head and look on the good side of life.
