About Me
I work from two simple philosophies: Honesty (truth) and kindness (love). I'm naturally a kind person, and hate to see people in pain. I also hate to think that I'm a fake person.

I'm a member of the scouting community and help run evens for kids, go camping and hang out with like minded people. You can probably join too, if you would like.
That picture of me with the Cross Country trophy mug is at a "Moot" an annual gathering of Rover Scouts (18-34 Y/O).

In my spare time I like to wind down playing classic Command & Conquer (strategy game) with people overseas. I'm currently looking to modify the game, adding new balance and videos to it. I like making things, especially if other people are having fun with it :)

I also paint miniatures, but don't currently have all my stuff set up. Was living in a smaller room where I didn't have space. Just need to bring my painting desk it.

Some people say I'm 'political', but really, I just care about people and am paying attention to the world. Obviously, that's going to include things that are happening on a political level.

I'm a big fan of symphonic metal, especially the band Epica. They're just brilliant and produce a wide range of sounds and feelings from their songs, coupled with thought filled lyrics. There are other bands I like too, Nightwish quickly comes to mind, and I still like a lot of other classic rock music also.
I do like very much enjoy other music too, but not really any Rap/HipHop/RnB etc.

I also paint fantasy miniatures, but currently have no space to set up my art. I got forced to move a while back and just ended up where I ended up. I was also looking at making a table top RPG, but all of this is on hold right now.


These things are just pass times, though. Just my art and hobbies. I really want to help this world and am seriously thinking about either writing a book, or finding a place to give speeches. It's a bit of a difficult thing to go about doing, and I don't really know where to start.
I'd like to spend at least a decent amount of my life in service to what I see as a pretty broken world. I feel for people and so I want to act.

I think if people could understand much of what I've learned to understand during my life, it might help this world :)
This type of thinking is probably what makes me the most unique (we're all unique, but this is probably the biggest factor for me).
Everyone is 'special', but only some people share their 'special'. I want to share my 'special' more! xD

Hobbies & Interests
In my spare time I like to wind down playing classic Command & Conquer (strategy game) with people overseas, I've made a little youtube channel where I have some games up and give running live commentary. Funnily, I'm one of the best players in the world. I've also done some modding, making my own game, re-balancing and making new graphics. Pretty much a mathematical arty balancing act. Very cool when you get the balance right and see people having fun with it, though.

I also paint fantasy miniatures, but currently have no space to set up my art. I got forced to move a while back and just ended up where I ended up. I was also looking at making a table top RPG, but all of this is on hold right now.

I've started learning Rock'n'Roll dancing. It's super fun! Getting pretty good pretty quickly too. Always good to feel like you're making progress.

Favorite Quotes
“The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we … kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok … But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.”
-Bill Hicks
