About Me

CURRENT MISSION

evolve into a unicorn*

ABOUT ME

I am Ugandan. I have lived in Massachusetts for the past 4 years. Currently, living in Paris (Ile de France) and doing an working in Paris.I love people. I am good at cooking and talking to total strangers (yes, I have made friends in elevators while trying to do something about the awkward silence). I hate to blow my own trumpet but I am full of so much (positive) energy...no, really. And I dare you not to laugh (or at least smile) when we interact; I just roll like that
Lastly, I am very outgoing, a jolly person (so I have been told)and very open minded.

PHILOSOPHY

I always feel like there's something more out there; so I keep trying new things. I would like to know how far I can go as far as finding true happiness is concerned.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kinds of music except for rap.
I love inspirational movies; Gattaca is my favorite in this area. I also enjoy scifi movies; star wars (the original trilogy) is my fav.
But I enjoy most movie genres except for action (just a little bit)
I am more of a tv show person though (than movies): Battlestar galactica, the big bang theory, star trek, how i met your mother, prison break, grey's anatomy, freaks and geeks, Lost and FRIENDS.
