Hi :)
I suppose the purpose of this section is to ensure those here that I'm not insane, or mind-numbingly dull haha
A paragraph won't do justice to what constitutes a person. Whether you think I'm the above mentioned characteristics is up to your judgement.

But really, I've been told I'm nice :) (And sane even! :D) And friendly!

On another note, I'm currently studying at the University of Toronto. I'm finishing up my Bachelors in Life sciences, majoring in Comparative Animal Physiology. Post grad I'm looking into Radiation technology or a masters in my field.
I've lived in Toronto for a majority of my life; I moved here from Macau when I was 6, so I suppose I can call this home.
I suppose I'm in a bit of tizzy when I came to the realization that I could very well be moving out of the country for school. I'd love to meet new friends and learn everything I can about different cultures. I intend to travel in my near future and I really look forward to getting a taste of the diversity of people and places there are anywhere else but here! Haha.
I always enjoyed having a penpal in grade school, and I suppose I never really outgrew it :) I've been told I daydream a lot, and I guess it may seem like that; I've got a lot on my mind most of the time and I find it difficult at times to relay ideas through the medium of speech. I'm more fond of writing :) I'm not quite sure why...haha But really, I'm quite an outgoing person :)
With that said, feel free to drop me a line! :) I don't bite, really! Haha

Anyone and everyone! :) I'm looking to move to the UK or Australia soon for school, so I'd love to meet anyone who's currently residing there :) But really, I'm game for meeting anyone who's up for a chat about anything whatsoever :) If you've got a rant that you're passionate about, by all means give me a shout, I'd be interested haha

....Unless of course you're in a cult trying to convert me :/ (hah :))

Cooking and nutrition, handicrafts. I love creating and working with my hands. I dabble on the acoustic guitar and piano when I've got time; piano more than the guitar hahaha
I can spend hours over lead and a good textured paper doing portraits. I usually get lost in it for hours on end. Other things I do on my down time include reading and writing...which I suppose most people adobt as a hobbie, no?

Physically I enjoy a daily run, again, when I can find time haha. It's a great relief to feel the wind blowing past you; for me it feels as if it's ridding me of the toils of the day that's passed.

Audioslave, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains,  Eluvium, And the instrumental maestros' of our time: Hans Zimmer, Yann Tiersen, Clint Mansell, Michael Nyman, etc., Disturbed, A perfect circle, Nine inch nails, Breaking Benjamin, and many others...

I jump everywhere concerning music; I tend to enjoy one or two songs from different artists. I tend towards Indie groups and dark rock.

Gattaca, The Fountain, A.I., Little Miss Sunshine, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Primal Fear, A Painted Veil, King Kong, Shallow Hal, The Last Samurai, Atonement, Love Actually, Cold Mountain, Dr. Strangelove, Shawn of the Dead, The Constant Gardiner, The pianist, The Libertine, Closer

House MD, How I met your mother

The Road, Atonement, Cat's Cradle (or anything Vonnegut, for that matter), The Kite Runner, An Interview with a Vampire, The disappearing moon Cafe, The physicists (screenplay)....

I apologize for how mainstream this list seems...Schoolwork has prevented me from having time to devote to reading some quirky picks, much to my dismay :( But I do prefer the eloquence of Ian McEwan and Anne Rice :)

Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well

The brave are simply those with the clearest vision of what is before them, danger and glory alike, and notwithstanding, go out and meet it.

I am in earnest; I will not equivocate; I will not excuse; I will not retreat a single inch; and I will be heard.

You got three choices in life: be good, get good or give up

Then he just knelt in the ashes. He raised his face to the paling day. Are you there? he whispered. Will I see you at the last? Have you a neck by which to throttle you? Have you a heart? Damn you eternally have you a soul? Oh God, he whispered. Oh God.

So here he lies at the last. The deathbed convert. The pious debauchee. Could not dance a half measure, could I? Give me wine, I drain the dregs and toss the empty bottle at the world. Show me our Lord Jesus in agony and I mount the cross and steal his nails for my own palms. There I go, shuffling from the world. My dribble fresh upon the bible. I look upon a pinhead and I see angels dancing. Well? Do you like me now? Do you like me now? Do you like me now? Do you like me... now?

Disce Pati

You want to know how I did it? This is how I did it, Anton: I never saved anything for the swim back.

If there is virtue in stoicism, I do not see it; and if I haven't the strength to protest, neither have I the will to conform.

There are times when I have been tempted to protect my heart from further disappointment with cynicism...But it would be like poisoning yourself to avoid being murdered

I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway
