About me: 
The last time I bought a bed was in 1997. My father gave it away in 2000. I have kept a journal since I was five years old. I hate airplanes, love airplane food. I am only superstitious in Africa, and have several stories and a few talismans to prove it. My Chinese mother and Irish father are the opposing, complementary forces that harmonize my life. I believe that every experience, and how you react to it, changes and creates who you are, bringing a distinct energy to the world.

The sky was a cerulean blue, the clouds barely visible between the high rises that rose like waves over the hills of San Francisco.
