| Bio: | Kleio: the muse of history. Caissa: the (literary) muse of chess.
International relations and philosophy are, however, her true loves, and she enjoys finding historical examples to apply to them. She has occasional thoughts and leanings concerning a world government and a benevolent dictatorship, but, if the dictator can't be her, she is generally very liberal. She views both philosophy and economics as crucial for making political decisions (clearly hasn't given up on the dictator thing) and is currently enjoying reading books about macroeconomics and international trade, although graphs and she have a mutual disliking. She is, slightly masochistically, endeavouring to do something about this by studying maths this year and counts on her obsession with logic to reveal hitherto unknown mathematical talents. She enjoys playing piano, learning violin, playing chess, writing fic, and procrastinating about things she does not want to do. Arguments are a particular passion for her, as well as rambling on aimlessly about particular themes, and if you choose to friend her, you will likely read many attempts at philosophical musings and will be entertained watching as she tries to adjust her writing style from journalistic to academic. She is also a bit of a grammar-nazi, despite knowing that grammatical prescriptivism is rather difficult to defend. Above all, she is alarmingly aware that it might have been more accurate to have spelled Caissa with a "K." ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} virginia_bell, profile banner from capture_dreams. | |||||||||
