About Me

CURRENT MISSION

“The greatest gift you can give another is the purity of your attention.” Trying to grant people that gift is my mission.

ABOUT ME

I'm a person with very versatile interests. I can spend weeks on trying to solve some math problems while listening to podcasts about history of ancient rome, which i make more entertaining by appreciating some sci-fi books (hence my username, ten points if you can guess what book is it from!). Although i'm mostly interested in law, which has always been my favourite subject on society. I would describe myself as a person that quickly goes from a small talk to a very engrossing discussion over either exaggerated silly topic or some truly serious, possibly mankind changing affair. And as it all sounds as i'm probably a whacko, I can assure you that i'm very uncomplicated person, who couldn't do anything without filling my life with senseless, yet so captivating fun.

PHILOSOPHY

"Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof & instant coffee, to unemployment insurance & library cards, to absinthe & good hearted landlords, to music & warm bodies & contraceptives & to the 'good life' whatever it is & wherever it happens to be." - Hunter S. Thompson.

This is the quote that I live by pretty much. Whatever makes me happy is what should make me happy. There's no reason for trying to change your feelings, enjoy what you enjoy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One day while still in high school, during the recess we were playing some football. I went on a dribbling spree and passed five of my opponnents, before lobbing the ball perfectly above the goalkeeper of the other team. Maybe it doesn't sound like anything special, but it was one of these moments that really stuck with me. Sometimes i relive this memory and believe me nothing has ever made me feel like that. Sports are amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach polish speaking people english and english speaking folks polish. I would also be happy to (as fascinating as it sounds) some entry level stuff of jurisprudence. As for something i could teach you in one day: basic tricks of pen spinning, how to make your ramen THIS much better and how to starting enjoying running, even if you spent your entire life on the couch!
