About Me

I admit that I'm a tumbleweed by nature... that's because while I've spent a mint on my education, it turns out my best investments have been the time i've spent with my friends and spontaneous moments of enlightening solitude i'd stolen during a hectic day... The years I'd spent building walls of heady information around me prove all too frail and wanton in comparison... so, content with tumbling and stumbling upon moment-to-moment epiphanies have proven more reliable in establishing a quality life than meticulous planning.images:
