About Me

This is a place where I write whatever comes to mind freely, unpretentiously, whenever I feel like it. I was inspired by Philip Flenker to keep this page as my own mini-autobiography.

I Like to Reflect

I like to ponder things. I genuinely enjoy reflecting deconstructively on my life, values, or issues in our society.

I see reflection as one of the two essential parts of the process through which I update myself. The other is interaction with others, whether people, nature, or books. Together, these two help me continually break down and reconstruct my values.

I Get Into Things Easily, But Rarely Stick With Them

I easily get interested in things, but my enthusiasm usually lasts only a few days, or at most a few months, before I move on to something else. Some things I've tried include bullet journaling, image generation, speedcubing, and meditation.

Although none of them has become a lasting hobby, I haven't completely stopped doing them either. I still sometimes solve a Rubik's Cube or meditate when I feel like it. I'd call it the periodicity of my interests.

I Abhor One-Size-Fits-All Values

I appreciate plurality. Our society is so complicated that there's no single way to measure it. So why should we favor one metric over another? I'm skeptical of reducing a complex society to a single measure of what is good or desirable.
