About Me

Hi, how's it going? That's nice, anyway, I'm Jason and this is my...space. well, I should probably write a little something about myself, so here it goes. I'm the son of military man so I've spent most of my life moving around. I've never lived abroad, but I think that would be really cool, and if the chance came up I wouldn't pass on it. I was born in Cali, but Washington feels more like my home state. It gets a bad rap because of all the rain, but it's that fact that makes it so beautiful. It's been over a decade since I've last been there, and I still miss seeing mountains on the horizon. I'm rambling. I've lived in Austin for a year and a half. I've taken some time off school and hope to start back up this fall. when I was in school I studied psychology and philosophy. I still study philosophy outside of school as much as I can. For me it's a way of life. Stoicism is the closest thing I have to a religion. I try to lead a stoic life as much as possible, though it's not always easy. Practice makes perfect. I started learning shaolin Kung Fu six months ago. It's great! I go to class almost every day, and am currently a blue belt. I love shaolin amd consider it a life long endeavor. I also love reading. Right now I'm reading Tolkien's "The Two Towers", and I'ts fucking awesome! Other than shaolin and philosophy my life is pretty normal, I spend most of my time working and hanging out with friends and...that's life, for now. I started this account for two reasons: to meet some cool new people and to keep in touch with the cool people I already know. So if you fit either one of these specifications, by all means, drop a line.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Ooooh, good question. I'd like to meet Marcus Aurelius. He was a Roman Emperor and stoic, the proverbial philosopher-king. Both wise and powerful. I'd like to find out what makes a man like that tick. It can't be easy ruling the world, yet he did it for two decades. and did a pretty good job of it, in spite of a lot of drama and conflict. How did he do that and still maintain his sanity? There's others I'd like to meet, but he'd have to be the front runner.
