About Me
I'm a 20-something-year-old Palestinian Muslim male, undergraduate junior student, and certified coffee addict. Pursuing a career in Biology (Med, Pharma, Dentistry), but really undecided on it now. Also interested in Sociology. Enjoy a variety of sports, action and strategy video games, books on history and culture, and movies on occasion. Occasionally think too deeply on any one particular subject, so pardon my incoherent ramblings.
You've been entered in a shadow puppet contest. What's your best pose?
Yo momma. And she don't look pretty, either.
