Salutations!

Greetings!  Je m'appelle Lee.  I am a senior at Sonoma Valley High School.  I suppose that this blog will be a folio of miscellany - a lockbox of fragments of my life and thoughts.  

A bit about me:  I enjoy playing the piano, occasionally  composing.  I am good at english, interested in english and science, and aim to major in geology - or thereabouts in terms of subject matter.  I am a pragmatic environmentalist concerned with the impact of global warming.  I work closely with the Sonoma Ecology Center, pursuing these environmental interests.  I am working on a project to analyze future sea level rise impacts, particularly in the Bay Area.  My favorite authors:  Kundera and Calvino.

Of course, as a senior, my life is oriented around college.  Colleges of interest to me:  Stanford, UCLA, UC Berkeley, Pomona College, Cornell, Occidental, Brown...

Hopefully I can get into a few of those.

Here I am, standing on the edge of infinity, without vertigo, ready to submerge into depthless sea of possibility.  And I have never been more exhilarated.
