Who/What/When/Where/Why

Welcome to my blog! Alright, now that you are sufficiently bored by that trite opening, allow me the opportunity to tell you what this blog is all about! 5 second introduction: Andrew Cheng, NYU, Sophomore, 19 years old, studying in London. Get it? Got it? Good, let's move on.

Reasons why I started this blog:

  1. Kristie Francisco (the love of my life) and I have been talking about starting blogs for a while--now that she has hers, I've got no excuse to lag behind!
  2. I was recently telling a friend of mine "if you keep a blog or journal, you can look back on your trips and say 'wow, I did a lot!'" it's only fair that I take my own advice!
  3. I'd like to have some sort of record of what's been going on in my life, I think it would be interesting to see how my life changes over time.
  4. For you! Now you can read about all the enthralling and exciting endeavors that I pursue, and likely discover how I suspect that I suffer from ADD, that I have an extremely sarcastic nature, and perhaps find some interesting recipes, workouts, advice, insights, random tidbits, and other goodies of similar nature.
  5. Food! I feel like less of an unhealthy fat person by posting recipes/pictures on a blog instead of on Facebook :P. Here, my audience is smaller, so less people can judge me! 
  6. Something, something, something, improving my writing skills.
  7. I of course enjoy making lists of things that often hold little to no significance, and are more often than not left to float about in cyberspace until the world ends*.
*End of the world possibilities in order from most likely to least likely: Pigs flying (too many promises will have to be done), nuclear war, normal war, 12-21-12 Mayan prediction, scarcity of resources, return of the Messiah/prophet/alien overlords (religious affiliation TBD), because some guy in California said it would.

Want to know a fun fact? I'm currently on a trip in Prague, and it's 4:30 in the morning. True story. As such, I'll wrap this up.

Topics that I want to talk about in the coming posts (provided that I don't get distracted by other topics!):

  • Life (that's not tooo broad, is it?)
  • Somewhere I should have a post about who I am.
  • Food!
  • Staying in touch with friends & communication
  • Secret societies 
  • The US Presidential election
  • Animals (I'm not sure why this is here, though it would be cool to read about and learn some intricate knowledge on an animal every once in a while. Eventually, I can be a self-taught zoologist!)
It is also likely that I use this blog to follow my various workouts and diets, so if any of the following catches your attention, or if you simply stalk me for the enjoyment of it, buckle up!

Over and out!
