Mobilizing people to fight against injustice, learning about human rights and researching ways to get people involved, learning about marketing, reading, writing, listening to live music, discovering new bands, watching movies, running, changing and growing, thinking about life, going to the beach,hanging out with my family, throwing the football, playing trivia games, travelling, going to coffee shops, hanging out with the girls, praying, and thinking about God. I also enjoy pondering life, goofing off with funny people, discovering myself in the midst of my 20s, and wondering what is going to happen next. I'm trying to learn to hope, despite the fact that I have no idea what is going to happen...
