My Sumtimes Life

My Sumtimes Life is a mathematical equation for living. Rather, it's my mathematical equation. My sum refers to my age, times refers to multiplied by, and Life refers to the Quality of my days. It is so easy to fall into the trap of work, work, work, with seemingly little enjoyment or time for oneself. Therefore, I created this site as a constant reminder to myself to live each day with quality of experience in my mind.

About Me

Annie: I am a story teller. I like to tell the story of my interactions with the world, how I perceive time, events, places. I use humor to point out the inconsistencies and harshness of life but I also do it becuase it's better to go through life with laughter than with tears. I hope you enjoy the stories, they are after all, for you.
