A brief introduction

Who am I?  Let us just say I’m one of those countless bloggers out there with the naive and pertensious mindset that their linguistic atrocities, (i.e., blogs) might be read by a random few.  How do I know this?  I write them. Allow me to introduce myself, I’m an asshole, a cynic, and an idealist.  I hold towards a philosophical mix of abusrdism, secularism, and humanism.  If there is any contradiction in such terms, then I submit unto you, I am not one to care.  I’m an advocate for strict seperation of church and state, laugh at the entire dichotamy of “pro-life” and “pro-choice” debates, and have no problem letting my atheism shine through.  This being said, I personally hold no biases for or against religion or theism in general.  Sure, I will probably pick on a few every now and then, but again, I make my reasons rather obvious to even those posessing only room tempurature I.Q.  While I do not mind comments on my page, I will delete flames if I feel such is warrented.  While I support freedom of speech and freedom of conscience, I’m not above deleting the commentary of a poster I do not care for.  I reserve this right as an asshole and as the author of this blog. 

My interests cover the field of human rights, international law, international politics, and history.  I’m currently earning a dual degree in both integrated studies with a concentration in legal studies as well as in government and international politics with my concentration being international relations.  I intend to get a JD in human rights and my masters in international affairs.  Why do I do this?  It gives my life something resembling purpose. 

I would rather have made an impact upon the world by the end of my life a live modestly than have amassed a fortune but ponder whether anything in my life was actually worth the trouble of living it.

I have an often described cynical, sarcastic and morbid sense of humor.  I favor horror films and comedies, often finding most action films to be inherently unrealistic or too predictable.  This being said, horror films for me are predictable and almost universally follow a series of plot formulas which are all, to say the least, exhausted.  I tend to think of my life plans in the long term, and hold little interest in much of the normal activities of folks in my age group.  Why?  I simply don’t find any joy in getting drunk, partying excessively, watching the majority of television shows, etc.
