About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover the world, discover Myself

ABOUT ME

All about me ??? It's difficult to say all in a few words.

One may see nerdyness or geekyness in me and it's quite true as I can be very passionate on what I do and spend a dramatic amount of time on it (whatever it is, even relationship). But on the other hand I do have a happy social life and go out and travel a lot ...

I like to tell silly jokes in french ... I'm trying to do the same in english but as it's not my natural language it's quite hard (still I try, and my stay in a US college have helped me a lot).

I want to meet lots of people and share things with them ! That's my goal for the moment.

For the rest maybe the best is that you discover it by yourself ???

PHILOSOPHY

If you want, you can . I think that you realy can do lot of things if you have the will or the balls to do it and spend enought time on it.

I want to discover people. Studying is a bit boring when it takes as much time as it used to take me . So I'm looking forward to discover completely other thing !!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies : I really like lots of films . Fromt Most of tim burton's movies, Lord of the ring trilogy, the matrix, Quentin tarantino's film, to other films that are less known like Garden state, King of California etc... I generally appreciate unusual and fucked up movies

Music : My taste are rather large. I have a big preference for pop rock music, but It extends in all kind of directions, from heavy metal and reggae, to house music and french music (often a real enigma to foreign people I met). Some People say the music playlist on my computer is hightly schisophrenic but ... diversity never hurts

Books : Used to read a lot. Not have much time for it by now . My favorite types of books : science fiction, heroic fantasy, lord of the ring, Ants (french book),Dune, Asimov etc

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Shooting silly home made movies with my friends when we were in HighSchool (We manage to shoot two 1H30 movies, so that was not so bad).

Being part of the organization of a very huge student party (more than 2700 people), in my engineering school !! A year of preparation for such a great fun, for such a great night !!!

Tree Planting for a month and a half in north saskatchewan.

Crossed Europe to Roumania during a week. We went there to do humanitarian work with my class in 2009 . We were with 4 of my friend in my car and we went back to france in 27 hours of non stop driving... my back still thanks me about it.

Solving a rubik-cube in 1 minutes 40 seconds

Shopping in the US appalachian with a country music band playing live in the shop.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to know how to play guitar but my studies kind of split me up from my instrument. I think that I still can do some funny things with a guitar in my hands though.
As I study enginerring, I know a couple of things about lots science or technological subjects but it tends to bore non scientific people so I try not to talk about it too much (hard sometime). On the other hand I like to keep in mind what a great philosopher once said : The only thing that I know for sure is that I know nothing .

I think that every thing can be interesting if it's shared with entousiasm, so I like to talk about anything as far as people believe in what they talk about.
