About Me

born in thailand, grew up in vancouver. almost done my 2nd year as a photography student at ryerson university in toronto, living with my buddy brooke. interesting facts about me that you probably didnt know, and probably wouldnt know unless i told you: I take in all the little details in my life. my favorite time of the day is when i finally get to go to bed and know that for the next 8 hours all i have to do is sleep. i wont eat ice cream when its even remotely beginning to thaw. there's nothing better than melted cheese. i love bubblewrap, but who doesnt?i crack my knucles on occasion. im addicted to sugar and greys anatomy. i have a thing for vintage suitcases and junk stores, you never know what you're gonna find... i get excited being in a city i know nothing about. i love the feeling of sun hitting my face and sand between my toes. i drink vodka and like black.(gill i think we're meant to be) i cannot stress enough, how much I HATE LINT. once when i was 10, on a summer day, i dropped a piece of chocolate on the hot pavement and before i could even bend down to pick it up it had begun to melt, but i picked it up and ate it anyway...this is the day i realized i would have a neverending battle with the declicious substance..im being seriouse when i say people think i eat too many chocolate bars...i guess its better than being addicted to crack.?haha so...moving on. There's this street car driver on queen st who sings the name of every single stop, it always puts a smile of my face...I figure we need more people like this in the world. my goal before i die is to travel the world and photograph it... (excluding antarctica.i hate cold weather {why did i move to toronto?}unless maybe the glaciers and icebergs decide to melt due to global warming and cause the south pole to eventually turn into a tropical paradise. then maybe yes, antarctica too. I think after all that i could feel truely satisfied with myself... oh.. and i think its bullshit when people dont work hard for the things in their life. When people take advantage of what they have. Really pisses me off.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

brad pitt."the camera-the lens-can do that very thing-enable one to see through the eye, augmenting the eye, seeing more than the eye sees, exaggerating details, recording surfaces, textures that the human hand could not render with the most skill and labor.

I don't think we should be listening to them. I think we should be looking at the victims of their policies and having a camera around your neck gives you that freedom.
