| Introduction | Carpe diem! There are so many things I want to do before I die, that I feel like I'm suffocating from the pressure and desire to fulfill everything I want to do. I love foreign languages and traveling - but here are the basics about me: I'm trying to find my place in the world. I get seriously annoyed when string cheese doesn't pull apart into strings. I think people are fools for not using turn signals or for not turning down their high beams when a car is approaching... it makes me want to... punch them. Speaking of punching, I could easily punch someone in the face for throwing a cigarette butt on the ground or when they walk EXTREMELY SLOWLY right in front of me when they're under 30 and perfectly healthy. I think people are cowards when they settle for a life they don't truly desire, just because they're too lazy to take a chance. I will always listen to someone else's problems, but I hate sharing my own. My two great loves in life are languages and travel and I hope I'll be able to do something with my life that combines both. |
