"Empirical science". Isn't that redunant? If not, I do beg pardon. Been reading a lot of Heinlein. When school starts, I will likely go to the gym every day.

doing math, reading (mostly nonfiction and cartoon strips like Calvin&Hobbes and FarSide), listening to international news broadcasts, and eating lots of salsa right before bed to have crazy dreams.

About to take off to some jagged rock faces to question the consistancy of my climbing skills. In my back pocket resides a copy of 'Hagakure', my reward for reaching the summits that surround me.

Reading. This is a constant, never-ending quest for knowledge.

Taking a 6 month university entry course in Ancient History, even though I have no intention of enrolling. I just like the course.

Learning from my elders. Look, listen, learn...

Sorry to quote myself like a jerk, but I'd just like to add that skateboarding has taught me a lot. Patience, visualization, you get what you put in, pain tolerance, and that I don't need to do drugs and shit to have fun.

Ask me about my english terriers?

Just living. Knowing people, reading as much as I can, and thinking about most of what I see and hear until it makes some kind of sense. Also a pure maths/computer science major involves more philosophy than you'd think.
