I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm always looking for a decent venue, whether it be a coffee shop, bookstore or stage-so if you're from the local Hartford area let me know!
If you can recommend any cool fencing clubs that would be great as well. I'm looking for a strong foil/sabre coach. I'm looking for a consistant routine, not your average ad hoc club.
Day trips fill my weekends-who know's where I'll be in next? I love filling up the tank with gas and going for a drive. You will never know what could be without opening the door and stepping into the unknown. I'm long overdue for a trip down to the isle... so maybe within the next few weeks.
I live with my best friend... someone who happens to be just as anal retentive as me ;), but in the end is the best thing that ever happened to me. Sometimes timing truly is the most important factor in a situation. I believe that fate and free will are intertwined... otherwise I would not be where I am today.

what does it mean to be

Must you see the sun and feel the wind to know what it means to be alive? Is it not enough to be for the sake of existing here and now? I feel as though I can touch the air and feel the death of what ...

Campus Food

Obviously in the 2 years I have been here, I have yet to learn not to eat on campus. Rather than giving up my awesome parking spot, wasting gas (at 2.69/gallon =cheap), and wasting time... I opted to ...
