CURRENT MISSION

Learn while enjoying the land, food, and people.

ABOUT ME

In my eyes, learning is a fun activity.
I don't compare it to playing sports, dancing, or yoga (etc.) because they are learning experiences as well.

When I spend time with others, I learn. I learn of their life, their particular culture, their ways of thinking and ideologies, and what they like and love.

PHILOSOPHY

A day spent learning is a day well spent.

Monotony is not absolute - spice and a great time can be found in even the smallest of things.

Interests

I love mostly all mental and physical activities.

Dancing is a huuuge love of mine ; of my family. (inc. Latin (esp. Salsa ; Tango), contradancing, and Jazz styles (esp. Lindy Hop))

Aviation, Sports, Games, and yes, even intensive learning are all fun interests of mine (esp. learning that which I haven't learned before) (^_^)

I enjoy the arts - I Liq Chuan/Zhong Xin Dao, Yoga, Wing Chun, Capoeira, Budo, and Massage.
However, there are many arts that I've never done before that would love to experience (inc. Reiki, Akido, and Krav Maga).

Motion-pics are a wonderful invention - especially with the productions of inspirational movies like "The King's Speech", "The Great Debaters," ; BruceLee/JackieChan/Steven Segal movies. XD

Books? As a student my life has been set with an arranged marriage w/ Ms. Textbook.... I'm starting to feel the love grow. ^_^*

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Slipped on a wet rock while crossing a seemingly shallow river in Lihu'e, Hawaii

Teach, Learn, Share

Interaction; communication with others isn't a one-way street - there's an exchange of opinions, likes; dislikes, languages, skills, etc..

I'm more than willing to teach, learn, and share in anything and everything.
Languages, and its learning and practice is a LOVE of mine! <3
