CURRENT MISSION

Diving into the deep end of life without a life jacket.

ABOUT ME

I like to explore a lot. I like to break the mold of expectations people have for me and my life, and I try to live life my own way as best I can.

PHILOSOPHY

I am an eternal optimist in decision, although in practice I have to work at it! I try not to plan things, but outline them in a general way. I'm an atheist and believe in scientific naturalism. I believe that one person can still make a big change, in anything.

音乐、电影和书籍

Anything by E. M. Adams, Guns Germs and Steel, Chalmers Johnson, historical biographies.

I like a lot of different music, but dislikes include most country; and nickelback, all songs.

教，学，和分享

I know a lot about international relations and diplomacy, as well as political matters. I try not to preach.

I know a lot of practical things, and am constantly trying to learn more. For instance, did you know that successfully patching a drywall hole can take up to 3 days to get done? I do, and apparently I'm not good at patching holes.
