Andrew (intro!)

Yet another intro post.
On KGS - klayzen

I'm Andrew, i'm 21, turning 22 on the day i fly out. I'm a student with one semester to go, studying computers and literature. I learned go from my dad when i was really little, but i've only been seriously playing go for 3 years. I'm 2d AGA, 1k KGS -- and at the tournament this weekend i will try to make 3d, but, no promises!

I've never studied with a teacher before, so, i'm really looking forward to really applying myself to some hard go-studying, hoping for 4-5 d when i come back.

I'm most excited about this trip because it's the first time traveling abroad for me (Canada doesn't count ), so i can't wait to see all the sights & learn the language, etc. I'm also looking forward to learning/doing some taiji if i can. Really, though, i'll be up for anything, anytime.

Language wise, my chinese is rudimentary, and i used to speak french pretty well.

I also really like 1-color go Challenge me to it!
