Most of the time I liked school and got good grades. In junior high, though, I hit a stumbling block with math - I used to come home and cry because of how frustrated I was! But after a few good teachers and a lot of perseverance, I ended up loving math and even choosing it as a major when I got to college.

I exercise at home - light cardio and yoga.

Because for whatever reason, even though I want to stay home all the time and be left alone, I want to tell the world who I am now.

I am a voyager - and the voyage cannot mean that I stay at home.

I was hit by a car once on my bike, but I still rode home.

Beer is not a good cocktail-party drink, especially in a home where you don't know where the bathroom is.

Outside of being home with my family, I prefer a crowd.

You can almost see voters nodding their heads at home: The public's faith in politicians and political institutions has been on a steep and dangerous decline for decades, because elected leaders fail to deliver.

Don't kid yourself. President Obama's decision to withdraw 33,000 troops from Afghanistan before he stands for reelection is not driven by the United States' 'position of strength' in the war zone as much as it is by grim economic and political realities at home.

White House operatives went to great lengths to show Obama shifting focus from wars abroad to domestic issues at home.
