[edit] Objective
I'm a college student who loves to learn and teach others. I am devoted to providing relevant, objective information, fixing any spelling/grammar errors or any redundancy that I see, and reorganizing existing articles to provide maximum structural efficiency and clarity. I spend roughly 10-20 hours a week reading articles on Wikipedia about things/issues/ideas/people/places that I am curious about or have never even heard of. I have found this site to be quite informative and I hope that in return I can be a productive contributor to Wikipedia.

Overhauled the summary for marijuana effects: marijuana

[edit] About me
My main interests and areas of advanced knowledge are psychology and philosophy. Specifically, I have extensive knowledge in the areas of social psychology, physiological psychology/cognitive science, philosophy of mind, philosophy of religion, philosophy of language, and logic. I have neither the desire, nor the time, to watch television. I have, however, been known to watch The Daily Show, or Seinfeld reruns on occasion, however rarely. I attend the University of Houston, majoring in Psychology B.S. and minoring in Philosophy. My favorite band is Nine Inch Nails.
