My camera and I, we share an eye!
I am a student, majoring in music and astronomy. I really love to do photography and draw, especially with charcoals. I dabble in every form of art, though, from sculpting to painting to poetry (and so many others). I am currently going to school in Chicago. I also really enjoy languages: I'm fluent in Spanish, proficient in Japanese and Arabic, and am studying Vietnamese and Chinese on the side.
