I am often confused when I try to edit Wikipedia. My love for Wikipedia seems natural to those who know me, as I am a "sponge" of sorts. I love knowledge and am always trying to soak it up. I try very hard and succeed in school. I am interested in intellectual discussion. I take pleasure in knowing that my contributions to Wikipedia can be read by others.

Sometimes, my edits to Wikipedia are grammatical. Some have called me a "grammar Nazi"; I have yet to decide whether or not this is a good thing.

If anyone reads this page and has suggestions for my user page, I am 100 percent open to them. My cluelessness with the formatting of Wikipedia is especially pronounced when it comes to user pages.

Two of my favorite academic subjects are French and music theory.

I am very much interested in international travel, although I only left my birthplace and homeland (the USA) for the first time in July 2006.
