time for another much needed picture update.
summer's come and gone... and as usual, i've been absent.. and for that i apologize.
i wish i had the patience to sit and write long wonderful blogs..
when i do get to the internet, i don't stay long.. especially in the summer, when i'm off traveling, or just outside living life... trying to take advantage of every experience, and squeeze everything i can out of this life.

i'm every bit the eccentric, elusive, mysterious aquarian.. even i think i'm an oddball, and not many people are on my level. i'm not much of a talker usually.. i'm a thinker and a dreamer.. my head's always in the clouds..
i'm not much of a blogger either...
anything i do find worthy of writing down, is written in personal journals, not to be shared with the world.
i'm a very personal person..
and maybe i like having that mysterious air about me that forces people to talk to me to get to know me.
pictures are worth a thousand words, so instead of words, i will give you tons of pictures.
