I am easygoing and have a zest for life. I'm a pretty spontaneous
person and I think some of the best moments are the ones that
happen out of the blue.
Two of my biggest loves are music and cinema. I try to catch shows
when I can and I enjoy going out dancing in good company.
I love cooking and food, especially in good company. I like to
experiment a bit in the kitchen but sometimes cookies rise like
muffins and salt turns into sugar ... hmmmm. Thankfully it usually
doesn't happen when I'm cooking for others. Though a muffin-a-fied
cookie is just a big cookie, and bigger cookies means more love and
care .. right?
I'm currently finishing up my Master's at U of T in the area of
healthcare technology. Afterward, I'm planning to work either in
the healthcare technology or music technology field.

Exploring, hanging out with friends, seeing a show, watching a
movie or sitting down with a cup of green tea and a book. Crab
walking. Moon walking. Crip walking.
I can't really ride a bike that well. When I was first learning how
to bike I wiped out into a pile of mud with sharp glasses and got
cut badly. Many years later my friend tried to teach me in a
parking lot late at night, only to have a van roam in and circle
around me non stop. Finally, a few years ago I was trying to learn
again on a friend's bike ... I lost control, hit a girl and knocked
her down, but we ended up becoming good friends :)
My grandfather doesn't know this but one summer my cousin and I
sneaked through a window into his room (the only room with air
conditioning and which he always locked) while he was napping. I
took the ink that he used for brush calligraphy and brushed a few
strokes on his bum during his nap. We were toddlers mind you, it
was pay back for underpaying us for all the worms he had us dig for
his pet turtle!
I'm more than open to speak with anyone.
