A rebel who carries a sullen sadness within, I’m an activist and aspiring poet. A gym rat and a bastard I spend my free time with friends or alone in my room hunched over a typewriter. I left academia when I realized the characters around me were entirely unserious and entered the tumultuous world of politics as an activist. I love my friends but they simply do not share my need for brutally honest conversation. Indulgence for me is not consumption but plunging into a penetrating discourse with a capable interlocutor. Well, that and a cup of tea I suppose.
