Some randomness.

  • I was there, now I am here, soon I will be somewhere else

It's just me yo.

No, really. THIS is how I do it.

I think about a lot of random stuff and I like to write it down. I believe in a lot of things and I think an equal amount of stuff is total crap. I am a cynical optimist. I am real. I like synchronicity and idiosyncrasy. My brain works quickly, which does not guarantee accuracy but is not A.D.D. Usually my mouth works even more quickly. I think being really tall and living in Asia is kind of cool. I want to be happy, bendy and satisfied... Because really, who wouldn't?
