ABOUT ME
My live is not as exciting as Paris Hiltons and as generous as Angelina Jolies. I am not as beautiful as Brad Pitt and not as rich as Bill Gates. I do not have muscels like Arnold Schwarzenegger or a brain like Albert Einstein. And I am not as funny as Tim Allen but also not as stupid as T## ######.
I was never as clever as my sister and I was never so skilled with my hands like my brother is.
I would like to have Mahatma Gandhis thoughts and Forest Gumps way of seeing the world.
I would like to be a New Zealand resident and a Snowboardpro, but I also 'd like to live a simple live in a country where the heart counts more than money.
I cannot play guitare, but I would like to learn to play drums and I am not as good in knitting as my mum :)
I've never rescued a cat from a tree and never helped an old lady to cross a street(there is still time that I get the chance to).
I have never been to the United States, have never discoverd a destroyed city, but also never destroyed a city.
I still dont know sometimes when to stop drinking and have friends who doesn't know neither.
I don't donate to Organisations which approach me in the streets.
I think I haven't had any traumatic events yet, just a childhood with my parents and my brother and sister in a small town with many cows and chicken.
I have had an amazing teenager time with lots of friends, partys and happy moments. And even if I would have the chance to, I wouldn't change any of the mistake I've made, because of them I am who I am.
I think I never really missed a train, but managed to miss a plane. Sometimes I belive I have seen more from other countries than my own.
Actually I was never ever really good in something, but there was never ever something I couldn't do at all.
When making decisions I am usally following rather my heart than my mind and I am convinced that following my gut feelings is mostly right.
Somehow I like everybody and I think everybody likes me
(:-)
I know, my live is not really exciting, I am not really exciting, but I life my live and thats just how it should be.
