About Me

I'm an eighteen year old non-redneck Kentucky boy who's eager to get out and see the world. This fall, I'll be attending American University where I plan to pursue a degree in the most popular major--"undecided". If you really want to read my writing, you should definitely check out my livejournal which I update considerably more frequently.
"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity."

- Albert Einstein
US (German-born) physicist (1879 - 1955)
