About Me

CURRENT MISSION

dont sweat the small stuff!

ABOUT ME

i can be fun and free spirited, i enjoy being in good company, i like to walk fast, but not without looking around and sometimes i prefer to stroll, i like coffee every morning, i take a tap dance and some other dance classes when i have time, i love sitting in coffee shops, i sometimes try to pet bumblebees and i am strangely obsessed with the smell of new books or magazines. i like talking about philosophy, or nothing at all. i like to make people laugh, i love cooking for people! I like hosting parties, i believe that ppl deserve to be treated with respect. and Smiling makes the world go round.

PHILOSOPHY

In your Passions, Not in Rational thoughts, Do you find yourself...Find the Meaning of Life.
