Blog Name Background

Hi there! Im loving my blog name! Ive always wondered what the hell a beatnik was, and I came across a site while looking for a decent symbolic blog name and thought about googling it. Found a simple yet understandable meaning at the free dictionary

beat·nik (btnk)
n.
A person, especially a member or follower of the Beat Generation, whose behavior, views, and often style of dress are pointedly unconventional.

You can check out what a Beat Generation is at wikipedia coz its too long to post here.

Anyway, I thought, this is so me! I am such a non conformist! Like to give a brief background:

  • Im one who hates having roaches, mosquitos or any living thing killed.
  • Im one who sweats over a flying paper trying to free a mouse stuck to it.
  • I enjoy going to born again masses more even if my beliefs are catholic (oh dont get me started on their rules @.@).
  • I gave up a 3D Artist career and landed a job as a Barista wherein someone dubbed me as the "barista na may driver" (a barista that has a driver).
  • I also have a passion for Jazz music while most people my age go for alternative, rock, house or trance.. I could say I have an old soul... though acting my age is unknown to me. I am a 27 year old who is just as comfortable and happy as can be with an early 20s attitude. Good thing my face has been supportive of me.
  • As for my dressing up, I would still pick comfort and would rather look like everyone else than look like some idiot trying to set a trend. But I dont go for branded stuff, I love tiangges :)

Alright, this has gone on way too long.. So im going to keep it here. I cant wait to share my thoughts on the next post :)
