About Me

Living kind of an odd lifestyle during my childhood (sailed across the Pacific on a small boat with my parents) has turned me into kind of an odd adult. I aparently alternate between very litteral and very abstract comunication; I find it impossible to differenciate between the two. That which is litteral tends to be an abstraction that has become denotative; that which is classified as abstract is also an abstraction but one that is as of yet uncodified. Sometimes I think that this makes what I call abstract truer than what I call literal. Sometimes I don't. Now would be a good time to mention that I'm rather mercurial. I like to think of myself as ethical. Currently my ethics are something that I don't manage to live up to, but that doesn't mean that I'll stop trying. I'm really tired of living in Los Angeles. I'm from here, but I'm not sure that I want to be. I'd kind of like to be from Whangarei or Venice or La Paz; a friendlier place. I'm kind of shy and very silly. I deem that sufficient.  MyGen Profile Generator
