Well, I like cycling - that's probably my main preoccupation, along with architecture, which is what I will read at university. I think architecture is the highest possible subject, if we go in for something like the Elizabethan Great Chain of Being. I'm also interested in politics, because I think it affects everything else. I see philosophy as another subject it should be difficult not to be interested in, but, as with politics, I have no formal training, and my reading is sadly limited. I am a little more well read and trained in English literature, which I think is fascinating. Science intrigues me, but I think it is a lifetimes' work to understand just one field of modern science, and I have only one lifetime, to my knowledge. Religion is of less interest to me. If there is a God, I hope that he judges us not by how vehemently we believe in him, nor how vociferously we praise him, but by what choices we make. That doesn't mean I don't think about religion, I just don't follow it. I value thought over wrote learning, which I feel is counter-productive. People say that I am prone to categorising the world into the fantastic and the "stupid," but I think that that's a little unfair. I admit that I tend towards these extremes, but I think I have a little more subtlety in thought than that. I am just exceptionally bad at hiding it if it think something is at either of these points.
So actually, I haven't been able to narrow it down much, have I? This might be quite a holistic attitude to blogging!
