Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

My name is Shy (short for Shyaporn - it's Thai). I am an actor, writer and director in New York City. (I just moved to Astoria and it's awwweesome.) I practice kung fu and love most physical activities (yoga, rollerblading, rock climbing, kayaking, Ultimate frisbee, etc...) I've been on a big camping and hiking kick as of late, as well as pick-up soccer. Grabbing that last vestiges of outdoor life while I can.

I am also partial to board games (Of the Settlers, Carcassonne, Citadels, Apples to Apples, Jungle Speed, Scrabble, etc.. variety), blogging, making videos on YouTube, movies, comic books and foods of all varieties, amongst other things.

I enjoy sexuality non-ironically.

I can cook Thai food, borscht and Turducken, amongst other things.

If I get a new song stuck in my head, I will walk/run/dance around listening to it over and over again until I learn the lyrics, then move on to another song.

I like walking around the city as if it's one big museum, popping in and out of shops as though they were art galleries.

Okay this is turning into a novella... enough.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

There is no typical Friday night.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

Kinkaholic.

Oh, and apparently my body is falling apart.

You should message me if Propose an edit

You're a superhero in training.

You also have a mind like a diamond. And shoes that cut like cigarettes.

A love of camping, hiking, soccer, great food, exploring the city and trying new things wouldn't hurt either.

You should always be prepared to fight off ninjas.

Be liberal, be fit, be rationally insane, be kinky, be demure, be crass.

Just be trying to be whatever you truly want to be.

And willing to try anything thrice.
