About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'd rather to play records than break them

ABOUT ME

i love computers, sci-fi movies, obsessed with music, asian food (Sashimi freak), red color, dogs, cats, reading.

PHILOSOPHY

œ"I want there to be a way to say you’re part of that secret club of people who it's all right to smile at on the metro, something that makes okay those random conversations in a bookstore, something that helps shy people make that secret connection that’s nothing more than finding out that someone else is wandering through this world with the same hopes and uncertainties as you".

I read this on a XKCD post.

Live as much as you can, you never know when the robots will rise up and kill us all.
