About Me

what isn't there to say about the wonderful lives that we can have. really, it's a matter of ego and perspective. if you can get over your ego and look from outside the box, life becomes art, and art embraces life.i've been trying to convince myself not to get a myspace account for a while but it's the way of the crazy kids these days. haha, enjoy.an east-coaster at heart growing up and currently living in toronto; i used to hate it but i've come to embrace the city with all sorts of wonderful people surrounding me. good company demands good company.i'm just starting off in my career of environmental monitoring, working now full time for about a year. i love that people in the world are now understanding that mother nature is pissed off because of some of the decisions we have made as a global society.. and now there are actions being taken.+treehugging dirt worshipper (23 yrs) +photographer (15yrs) +bass player (11yrs) +longboarder (4 yrs) +acoustic guitar (3 yrs)
