"I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being, let me do it now...for I shall not pass this way again. --William Penn"Isn't that a beautiful motto? Let's me tell you more about myself. I'm from Thailand. A country of all year round sunshine, beautiful beaches, tropical jungles, delicious food, and friendly people... I just love it :) I've lived in different countries, different continents in the last 7 years. I enjoy travelling a lot and think Thailand is yet the best place I've been to so far ;p Maybe a little biased!I would love to work for the people in Africa in the near future. I'm beginning a doctoral degree study in the UK this year, also in the area of Africa's Development. I believe in helping the disadvantaged others. My life goal is to make positive changes in the world's politics. My studies and interests have always involved international politics. I'm praying that God will use my knowledge, my hard work and my compassion to help others to have a godly influence in global politics one day. I'm praying that He will prepare me because it won't be easy to pursue righteous and selfless goals in politics. But I believe that our God reigns and that nothing is impossible in His hands!I also love singing. I'm in the church band and in London Choir at the moment. And I love all the beautiful things in this world. I praise God for giving the eyes to capture the intricate beauty around me and the heart to feel deeply touched by it...

My Interests

- Travel - Music, Singing, Dancing - Cinema, Theatre - Politics - Africa Development

I'd like to meet:

Singing, dancing, outdoor friends, esp if you are christian. Not interested in relationship though! I love having mature God-related discussions. I love to do things outdoor eg sports, going to the park, a sunny day trip outside London. I enjoy seeing the awesomeness of our Creator! I also love interesting academic stuff esp if it's related to politics and Africa or any cool arts. Drop me a line if you've got interesting plans in London :) Thanks!

Music:

Gospel, Jazz, Soca, Indie, Jungle Music, Beach Music, Hip Hop, Classical... All sorts really depends on the mood but I would say top 3 are my most favourites :)Keep discovering new cool music through MySpace as well...

Movies:

Thriller (some girls think I'm a psychopath because of that ;P)but well I also like Witty Comedy...ha ha

Television:

Documentary programme, News, Sports (Rugby and Footieball)

Books:

All sorts except for fiction. I always want to find out more about lots of things. I never feel like I know enough. Some of my friends call me a book worm. Hmmm... I don't like knowing that I'm wasting my time. I want to live this life to the fullest potentials in order to honor Him. Well, actually I lie. There is one fiction I love "Harry Potter" ;p Isn't it amazing how the author came up with all those fantasy ideas? Her writing skill describes beautiful pictures and glues us to the book. Shame though I only had time to read 3 books:( -- Two books that transform my life, apart from the bible, are "Priceless, the Vanishing Beauty of the Fragile World" and "The Hungry Always Get Fed"

Heroes:

Jesus
