About Me


ME

my education, both scholastic and natural, is important to me. in a way, it defines who i am.
i like learning. anything. everything.
i do everything with computers and electronics. everything.
i believe in a universe of infinite possibilities, and finite choices.
i takes a lot for the physical world to hold my interest long.
i'm funny, yet seen as serious
i'm shy, but manage to socialize
i'm clumsy, though i usually catch myself
i'm independent, but find myself lonely
i'm awkward, always saying the wrong things
i'm smart, enough to know i'm not
i'm romantic, but scared to fall in love
i'm logical, yet lose to my emotions
i'm pale, and don't worry about skin cancer
i play go.
i write poetry.
i like ninjas.
QUOTES
if you love someone, tell them. hearts are often broken by words left unspoken.
i believe that everything happens for a reason. people change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
-marilyn monroe
you can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened... or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move the fuck on.

handwriting: that action of emotion, of thought, and of decision that has recorded the history of mankind, revealed the genius of invention, and disclosed the inmost depths of the heart. Handwriting ties us to the thoughts and deeds of our forebears and serves as an irrevocable link to our humanity. No machine or technology can replace the contribution or continuing importance of this skill. It has been necessary in every age and is just as vital to civilization as our next breath.
-Michael R. Sull
