About Me
CURRENT MISSION
catch the 22
ABOUT ME
I don't like to make choices, I like to take everything. On the other hand I did find love, and chose to follow it completely.
I finished my studies in History, and now it is time to use that knowledge to change the future... I like to make lists to create order, but I also love the adrenaline of chaos. I can be very patient, but actually I'm not.
Basically I like the life I'm living, I'm trying to be a good person, being honest and friendly as much as possible - Giving your seat to an old lady on a crowded tram is not only nice for the old lady, it gives you a (addicting) good feeling inside aswell, and also it makes other people think about also making that gesture in the future.
I should work on my ecologic footprint though, it's too big..
PHILOSOPHY
pos: There really is a solution for every problem.
neg: We're all slaves (so try to be a free slave!)

Music, Movies, and Books
The feeling of don't want to stop reading no more is fantastic! On the road (kerouac) and Madame Bouvary (flaubert) were big influences. My favourite book: "catch-22", my favourite writer: Umberto Eco, or was it Ernest Hemingway? Nowadays I'm enjoying the works of Jose Saramago, and I'm planning to read as much as I can from him...
I love a lot of music, but there's a lot that I haven't discovered yet.. My youth idols were Limp Bizkit, these days the genres go from new metal to rap, from triphop to acdc, 60s rock 'n roll to electroswing.. recently I started enjoying goa and dub/dnb. I've got a special feeling with balkan and indian music to. I like real, good music.
Favourite movie: Monty python's Holy grail, I can still remember entering the world of absurdness while watching the movie for the first time.
I also like Woody Allen, and his movies.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My grandfather passed away before I was born, but I once met him in a dream, he asked me if I was my mothers youngest kid, and then I stood on his feet while he danced with me.
