About Me

home is very important. it is important to have something to look forward to. i am never done learning, but it is very quickly done with the institution that is our educational system... i hate school film is an easily digestible medium in which a large amount of information can be conveyed in a short amount of time. i want to create, i want to do something that i am good at. (see the last one) i like huggles! uncomfortability is amazing as long as i can escape to somewhere where i feel comfortable. peace is unattainable in our society, it is necessary to dislike, it is necessary to fight. compromising ideals blows, ill just try not to get myself marginalized. teaching is just as important as learning. i try my best to realize that i am a white male from an affluent family, i try to act with that in mind. this is not in order. have a house, leave the house, dont blow the fucking thing up again i like answering questions in fragmented sentences.
