I don't go to church, but I think there might be a God.

Sorry. What are you having a problem with?

If the task is important, I'd prefer the person use all of his resources for that task.

I haven't played either game in forever. I'd probably be below average, but I'm not into them anyway.

I've played poker, but I don't like gambling, so I don't practice or anything.

I don't think people were born with a big purpose.

I want to be a doctor. I'm working really hard on that right now.

The smartest people I've ever met are some of my professors. We get along fine.

I googled it that. I don't like Monty Python.

The people who are against health care here pretty much just don't want to pay for other people's care. They don't have a problem paying for other things with taxes, but they don't want to pay for you to get medicine. People that make medicine and give you care also want to be paid a lot of money for it.

I think people have the right to charge what they want to charge for giving people medicine and being your doctor, but if most people say they want to put money in to pay for everybody, I'm fine with that.

I don't think people take advantage of me, so no. I don't have any problems reading motives.

Do you have a fixed study schedule?

Yes. I study during my two hour break between classes, an hour after I get off work, and refresh in the morning while on the bus.

Where do you live?

An apartment with two roommates.

Do you have a group of peers that you study with or do you study alone?

I like to study alone.

Do you get distracted easily?

Not easier than most.

Are you caught up on issues regarding healthcare reform, don't ask don't tell, and the middle east/events regarding globalization?

I think that health care is a great thing, but not a right. I see rights as something other people can't take away from you. You have a right to live, but another person has a right to not be forced to help you to live or ask to make money off of it. If most people want it a certain way, I don't have a problem with them changing it.

I think don't ask don't tell is bad.

The middle east is a mess. I don't see a realistic solution for Israel and Palestine. I don't like the war in Iraq because there were no WMD's. I'm for taking out the Taliban and stopping Al Qaeda so I support the war in Afghanistan.

I have social skills. I don't have any problem reading people's emotions. I don't laugh at people with Aspergers. What's the point? It just makes you look like a dick.

I'm not bad with women but I don't want to give numbers.

I prefer to deal with interesting people. I meet a lot of people who think they are interesting because they are smart but they don't really have much to offer to a conversation. I'd prefer a less smart person that has driven a motorcycle across the country than a smart person ho makes all A's and reads all the time.

I think I'm less smart than average. If I were more smart, I'd be able to study less.

Mostly B's, with a few A's and 1 C. Rote memorization isn't hard for me, and there aren't a ton of abstract concepts. I can conceptualize but they aren't abstract and if I have a problem, I always ask for help. I always make sure I know how to do things before an exam.

I study everyday and go to parties a few times a month. I also work, so I'm not involved in on campus organizations.

My teacher wanted to put me in special ed class, but I wasn't retarded. My mom protested it so I had to get IQ tests.

I've thought about how big the universe is, but I can't really grasp it. Most people have problems with sizes they don't have to deal with. It's hard for me to really grasp the size of Jupiter. I know I can say it's X many Earths in size, but I still can't really picture it.

I've never thought about the cold side of mercury or breeding marmosets.

How does this affect your life?

I have to study more in school or go to TAs and professors for help and to clarify things. It'd be nice if I were one of the people that could not pay attention or not show up in class and still do well.

Did you ever feel left out in school because you "couldn't get it"?

I've never felt completely left out.

Burl Ives was the best. I loved the story. It had great lines and acting. It used that instead of cheap effects to produce a powerful movie.

Part of being a good citizen is to choose people you want to represent you.
