i'm not sure if you can really fit me into one of these categories. but i chose pessimism, at my core. i'd like to think of myself as a "learned optimist" though because i have, for the most part, a pretty good outlook on everything. but i'm also a realist, so some people might mistake it for pessimism. why be optimistic for world peace when you KNOW that is never going to happen. i may hope it will, but lets be realistic.
