Bio

I like to think of myself as a life voyager. I am a dedicated martial artist ( primarily Aikido ) and i spend a lot of time meditating. I am Currently a Chinese Studies major at Grand Valley State... i enjoy reading, writing, playing music, doing all sorts of film and art stuff. I am in several bands in which i play a variety of instruments including guitar, drums, and piano, i love the outdoors, going to live shows, hippie fests, that sort of thing. ( i am truly a hippie at heart ) If i could i would move to India, but I'm being patient. I recently became a "Vegan" which i am enjoying very much. Everything is so much richer! My life long goals, if i don't end up living in a temple far up in the mountains of Nepal somewhere, are to be either A: a musician, B: a chinese medicine/Naturopathic healer/nutritionist...C: an aikido instructor...or D: ALL OF THE ABOVE! I have always felt as if there is no limit to the amount of things a person can accomplish in life as long as he or she goes about it with the right intention, and yes, it is very common for me to go off on "tangents" like the one I am on right now with this BIO page...
