Short story: I would like to be an admin to further the goals of Wikipedia and prevent abuse/vandalism by editors. Furthermore, I would like to use these powers to prevent edit wars as much as possible through semi-protecting/protecting pages before they get too badly into such a conflict.
My recent edit history (check the September-November timeframe) has given me more insight into the RfC and dispute process. While attempting to prevent vandalism, I was caught up in an edit war over a subject on which I was an expert. I know more about the WP:3RR now and have not violated it since. Additionally, in hindsight, some of my actions (which I hereby renounce) may be seen as inappropriate, though my general feelings about anyone actively editing my user page remain, I vow never to repeat those specific actions as they do not reflect well upon myself or Wikipedia.
