"Some people spend tremendous energy just to act normal." - An Introduction to Nick Valster
Hello. I'm a new member here, so I suppose an introduction is in order.
- • The name is Nick Valster.
• Age 14, just about to start high school's Freshman year.
• I moved to America from Europe. My parents decided to move back to my mother's hometown across the Atlantic and I have yet to become financially independent. Ugh.
• This blog will mostly be about whatever is on my mind. I like to think a lot about things, and maybe sharing thoughts and arguments here instead of in my paper journal will help someone else refine their thoughts out there.
• Don't expect consistency in terms of posting schedule. I don't have a schedule. Like, ever.
• Don't expect watered-down content here, either. When I say I will speak my mind, I will do it, regardless what you think of it. If something rubs you the wrong way, feel free to educate yourself on the topic and engage in a civil conversation once you're ready. Or just turn away if you can't be bothered. But don't bother me with it in such case.
• Do expect philosophy and maybe some sciency stuff. Those are the main interests I tend to talk a lot about. Other interests include but are not limited to skateboarding, rock music, art and reading. We'll see how much I end up writing about that.
