I Want to Find My Natural Pace
I Want to Better Harness the Power of Computers
I have such an intense fascination with Programming & Technology. I'm greatly interested in the inner machinations of computers, their capability for huge societal impact, and the philosophical implications of this.
The potential from harnessing the power of computers is inconceivably grand, and increasingly so. I want this harnessing to be my craft, and to seek mastery of craft such that I can, with time, both satisfy my intellectual curiosity and do societal good.
I Want to Start A Family
Perhaps in my mid-30s, when my capability as a provider in all facets is sufficiently advanced to be able to provide a good quality of life, I'd like to have a couple of children with someone whom I'd like to spend the rest of my life with.
I Want to Design My Own House
There's just something greatly enticing about the presence of my home, both interior and exterior, being largely of my own conception.
I love Scandinavian minimalism, of which Norm Architects seems to be the embodiment - lots of natural light, natural materials, natural colours, and space to breathe. In particular, I like their Skovshoved Residence.
Similarly, I like Standard Architecture's Forest Knoll. But I find it's a bit too grandiose for my tastes (and, at a $22M valuation, my wallet!). I want something small, with minimal required maintenance. I want a sauna and a home gym, but I'd rather do without the cinema, swimming pool, 2nd living room, and 2nd garage.
I'm also drawn to the prospect of being surrounded by nature, however inconvenient. Something like Looking Glass Lodge.
