My inquisitive and curious nature compels me to question everything. I love finding out how things work and am always asking questions.

I carry a small, black, pleather-bound book with me. I use it to record things, or doodle. Whether my words form simple observations or complex analogies is entirely dependent upon life's variables. I have a terrible memory for storing thoughts or details, thus, writing everything down is invaluable!

I don't believe in any religions, nor do I believe in fate or destiny, or "meant to be". I believe that reality is exactly what you make it; experiences shape your thoughts, thoughts shape your emotions, emotions shape your choices. I believe that you are exactly where you are because of the choices you have made.

"X-Files" lives in my DVD player. I like science-fiction, but $cientology is quite the fail. Technology is pretty nifty too. I own a Wii, DS and PS2, and am currently enjoying "Zelda: Twilight Princess". I enjoy discovering and sharing different perspectives on life. I can speak Japanese and would like to live over there for a bit one day, teaching English at Japanese schools. I'd also like to see Muse live, study Journalism, go scuba-diving, get a tattoo..

I am driven by passion and a desire to learn. I've been described as "having a calming effect" on those around me.

My biggest fear is losing my mind/ability to think. I'd hate to not be able to experience the world around me, and I believe that that fear is part of the motivation behind my love of life. I'm intensely appreciative of both my mind and my senses.

"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty." - Mohandas K. Gandhi
