CURRENT MISSION

Learn Russian

ABOUT ME

I like to meet new people and learn all about the different characters in this world. Am absolutely desperate to improve my Russian! Please help :o) Who am I? I'm a mature student at university. I never really believed that education was the most important thing in the world, but thanks to Human Resources, it seemed that owning a piece of paper became more important than being actually able to do something. Thus, I decided to go back to University. Before that I worked in Market Research, then worked at Warwick Castle as a guide and entertainer, and after taught English for a few years. I've always done sports, I'm ultra-competitive - I don't mind losing, but if I feel I have not done my hardest to win then I am like a bear with a sore head!!! :oD In my past I've been in a swimming club, played golf and gone fishing as hobbies, played cricket (yes it is a good game, but after showing potential when I was young I failed miserably when I tried as an adult :oD). I've also played for quite a few football teams and did muaj-thai for 3 years. I like dancing and have done a little ballroom at university; unfortunately, I am useless!!! At university, I've played Hockey and Squash, but only for fun, the bones are old, the joints creak and the muscles are weak from sitting on my * all day and trying to study! :oD

I rarely read but last book I read - Biography of Harold MacMillan

Last film, Hangover - The theme is perhaps not great, but the film is quite amusing!
