Wiki My Tutor Project

I have always been a learner, deep down I always had a quest to understand how things work ever since I was a kid, this has taken many forms over my lifetime. From touching things when I was a baby to breaking open radios and fixing them when I was 7; from the endless Discovery TV marathons from the age 9 onwards to experimenting with every part of my personality to see how people react to each tweak from the age 16 onwards. I found books again when I was 20 and I had just fallen in love, the getting into somebody's mind, understanding their perspective to later on having that extra pair of my eyes in my repertoire for looking at the world was just too exciting for me. I jumped into the ocean of knowledge with arms wide open, but now that I have started working I don't think I will have enough time to devote to the leisurely reads.

I have thus come up with a project for myself. I call in Project WIKI - My Tutor. I intend to go through thousands of wiki articles over the next 18 months (roughly 500 days) and write at least 1000 entries (besides this one) on the ones which interest me =) ... I think it will help me in reinforcing the learnings.

So here is the target --> 1001 articles, 500 days , time starts now =)
