About Me

i like running and cozy cafes

My Interests

is it not strange to think that as you read these millions of energy-based particles, invisible to human perception that collide and mend together under specific environmental circumstances to form my existence within a space that both is and, is not; in which every point is at the center due to it's ever expanding nature?

I'd like to meet:

free spirits, dreamers, good liars

Music:

American Football, Broken Social Scene, Pinback, The Histories, Tokyo Police Club, Great Aunt Ida, Tape, Sigur Ros, Mum, Yes Means No, Apostle of Hustle, Museum Pieces, Red Robot, Pilgrim, The Stars, Mikey Die, Gregory and the Hawk, The Velvet Underground, Andrew Bird, Owen, Yann Tiersen, Sufjan Stevens, The Woes, Radiohead, The National, Nico, Jose Gonzales, Elliot Smith, Of Montreal, Wolf Parade, Air, Violent Femmes, Peter Bjorn and John, Feist, Beach House, Yo La Tengo and many more

Books:

or, literary review quarterlies, medical journals, backs of cereal boxes, maps etc.

california on a whim
