About Me

NO EMERGENCY VACANCIES AVAILABLE

CURRENT MISSION

learn how to read and speak a bit of Korean, Get back making art

ABOUT ME

I am very easy going. I get along with people very easily. I like to party. I enjoy listening to music a lot even though I can only play ode to joy and mary had a little lamb on the piano and that Deep Purple song from the HP ad a few years ago. I really enjoy dancing after a few drinks, the alcohol loosens the joints the best. I do enjoy trying to speak other languages, even tho my Irish accent comes through fairly strong.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the best person you can be and make the most of every moment.

LIFE GOES ON

There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

ran the dingle marathon. climbed Currantuohill. spent a month traveling across Europe on a train ( I think I might do that again), beerbonged 11 canisters in the one night, saw James Brown Live, saw a guy fit his whole body through a tennis racket, Ate baracuda swung off a vine like tarzan,

Teach, Learn, Share

friendly outgoing people who enjoy a bit of banter and drink. I can teach a bit of Irish and Irish-English and James-Irish-English. The last one is the hardest to learn only a small group of people can understand it and very few can speak it. It is a relatively young language developing in the early 00's.
