About Me
Who I am and why I'm writing.
For as long as I can remember I've wanted to write. About what? I didn't know then and now I still don't. I have a lot of ideas about a lot of things, but they're vague. I write to flesh them out. To figure out what I believe.
So why am I sharing my ideas here, with you? Wouldn't it be enough to keep my thoughts locked away in some file on my own machine? I don't really have a good answer to that. It's probably because I'm selfish. I want others to acknowledge my thoughts as valid. To appreciate them. I'm not saying you have to, and I don't necessarily think so highly of myself that I'd expect you to, but that's my answer.
Anyway, who am I? I am a twenty-three year old unemployed man who recently graduated from a decent university with a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics. That being said, I highly suspect very little of my writing will have to do with mathematics at all. I consider myself a lifelong learner, and I believe that with that distinction comes curiosity. Curiosity that is not limited to any one subject. In my free time I study machine learning, philosophy, history, art, and more. I pick up two or three new hobbies seemingly every year, to the point I can't hope to balance them all. I'm not a jack of all trades by any metric. Just someone who hopes to get a little better every day in as many ways as possible.
I really don't like writing about myself, so I'll call it here. I just think there are more interesting things to talk and think about than me. Hopefully you now have a decent grasp of who I am, and would like to read some of my thoughts. If not, thank you for reading even this much. You have successfully inflated my ego already.
