Hi's and Hello's

It's pretty cheesy, but I'm still finding myself. It's not like I'm experiencing an enlightening journey to find the "true me." There's no hiking up mountains to find the wise man, or sudden epiphanies (though I do have those far too often). There's no jet-setting or scaling buildings either. No, that'd be extremely cool, but all this finding yourself stuff is actually pretty mellow.

"insert smooth transition here."

I'm from the San Francisco area....

I grew up in a liberal bubble and I'm always surprised to hear the political perspective of right-winged men and women, but the surprise quickly washes away, so it's all cool because in the end I'm not into politics at all. I want to see the world, but the harsh reality is I have neither the time nor money to do so. Ah, scarcity...which brings me too the fact that I'm currently an economics student. Sweet. Okay, moving on.

Baseball keeps my world from blowing up.

So, I love the Giants, and I love the Red Sox. I will belt out 'Sweet Caroline' without thinking. I will punch walls when we lose.

I love baseball -- baseball is a miracle. It's like...a part of childhood and a part of summer that's always with you. The most relaxing thing is to just hear the sound of baseball drift through the air. It's hard to describe. It defines itself.

happiness is really cool, and since it's a rite and all to pursue it, I'm trying. It's a LOT harder than it looks.

simplicity is cool, though I tend to be a magnet for complications.

je parle un peu de francais.

and petit nicolas is my hero.

not gonna lie, partying is great. all the things that make a party great are great, except the next morning.

Pretty much, I like to have fun. I like all that good stuff too, like love and friends and priceless things. Things in my life just sort of happen, all I know is that I'm going "somewhere" and that "somewhere" is good, and on my way to that somewhere, I'll meet some people and have some pretty great conversations, see some pretty cool places, and make some pretty unforgettable memories, in fact it's already started.

In other words, I'm trying to preoccupy myself with life.
