I am Geeky, humourous, and loud.

My Self-Summary

Not especially good looking, but fun is guaranteed! Green eyes, 171cm height, wear glasses, speak 4 languages, wanna know more? just ask me! or maybe not, this thing keeps on telling me i have to write more (sigh). Hopefully some mumbling will do...

What I’m doing with my life

Setting up a business, a stress bomb if ever there was one.

I’m really good at

... hard to say. There have been many things I thought I was good at and it turned out to be not the case (and a number of cases the other way around too, perhaps I'm not that good at assesing my own strengths, weaknesses)

The first things people usually notice about me

The fact that I have put on weight since I quit smoking. I was just going to get rid of it the standard way, burning it. Now I have a crazy plan and I'm checking to see if I can make it happen so I'm purposefully holding on to my extra weight for a little bit. The bad thing about that is that I have to skip going to the beach for a while, which is killing me.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books:

Anything written by Clive Cussler
" " " Agatha Christie
" " " Tolkien
" " " Dvoretsky
... this could take a while you know? I'm not even really started yet...

Movies:

The list is probably longer than the book one, I just love going to the cinema.

music:

I have worked in radio stations before. You do get to listen to a lot of very diverse music and learn to appreciate many different styles, but I will admit I'm developing a liking for Jazz, Acid Jazz and Amient lately, proabably because those styles are well suited to my computer work mood andI'm spending a lot of time in front of my comp (business has a very big internet component).

food:

Aside from the fact the smell of seafood knocks me out (hence shellfish and a lot of fish is out of the question for me, as is Sushi) I tend to like trying things from everywhere. I'm very keen on spicy food: Mexican, Indian ( currently learning how to make curries, first one was rather good I think), Thai.... I also like Italian, Chinese and needless to say, Spanish (aaah, the homeland stuff is gorgeous).

The six things I could never do without

My close ones.
Internet
Books
Music
The beach
Coffee

I spend a lot of time thinking about

How to automate the entire business process so I can get free time, the ultimate "mocodity" ( quoting Dr. Tran on that one)

On a typical Friday night I am

Home (thursday night is THE night out where I am now) or
down at my neighbours, tea, biscuits, cold drinks and crisps while watching a few episodes of any series you can think of in the sci fi universe (farscape, andromeda, any star treks, firefly, babylon 5... the guy just loves space stuff and I enjoy it too). We recently finished watching Bottom, which is a good laugh, and every now and then we catch the odd Sargent Bilko episode (hilarious stuff) or any weird thing hes recorded ages ago.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I fear rejection by women. I can deal with the chance of being rejected at anything but the fairer sex, which basically means I don't approach women I don't know at bars or clubs. Most people that know me don't believe me when I say this, for some reason my friends think I'm messing with them.
