ABOUT ME

I'm a scatterbrain. I'm not exactly blessed with a great talent for establishing priorities. In fact, the most urgent tasks usually end up at the bottom of my to-do list. That's because I'm always full of plans, ideas and wishes. Moreover, I have a wide range of interests. There's a lot of places I want to visit, a lot of things I want to experience, learn, see, listen to or just be overwhelmed by. And I don't usually say no (except, you know, in case of indecent proposals).

Interests

Things I do: browsing the internet, keeping Facebook friends up to date concerning my current state of mind, uploading pictures on Facebook (hoping for a lot of blue thumbs up), laughing at memes (no, not 9gag), searching for ridiculous topicalities on various news sites..
Ok, so maybe that's not singular enough for you and you want to know about the activities we might not have in common: reading (I'm currently under the spell of George R.R. Martin's fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire), writing, running (I'm training for a marathon), travelling, listening to music (mainly indie rock), attending concerts and festivals (I did voluntary work at a pop venue until recently), running around naked in a f(naw, just kidding), cooking (I'm a vegetarian, have been all my life; yeah, I was one of those poor kids raised to detest meat..).
O, and I study to become a translator. Occasionally.
Things I want to do: learn Spanish, Italian, French, Chinese and various other languages, learn to play the guitar and the drums, play tennis again, learn yoga.
