About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hmm... tricky one. To be more sarcastic ;)

ABOUT ME

Well I don't like telling about myself, 'cos I'd rather prefer that people make their own opinions about me (which they undoutably will, but still if I tell something, people anticipate the person I described myself to be, and thats something I don't like (hope you get my point :))). Anyways here's somethin' about me. In genereal I am pretty quiet person, I don't speek much unless I have things to say, but there are times when i have unstopabble urge to speak :). In these times its pretty hard to make me shut up :). I am quite serios most of the time, but when it comes to fun, vocations, parties, etc my seriousness is washed away like a village with tcunami wave :). Also i am quite lazy person, most of the time reacting when it comes to dead-lines and final chances. Trying to fix that now, 'cos am tired of being lazy :). Uff, what else? Oh, religions! Well I am somewhere in between atheism and agnosticism. I kinda hate all the religions, because religions are forcing their way into people's minds. I don't believe in gods (Or the God), however I do believe in some supernatural power on my personal level. Religions is one of my favorite topics by the way. I am always thumbs up for discusion about religon! Well i'll stop for now but definetly will continiune later ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Well, the first of all - my ultimate goal is to understand why we are. That includes philosophical view on the life, and also creation of life. I am itno astronomy, discussions about religions, meaning of life and so on. So to answer question: why do i live, simple answer would be - to find out why I live :). Oh when i'll have more time, I'll definetly add more thoughts to this!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well my friend (the one that had introduced me to this fun) provided a sleeping space for couch-traveleres once, and so we had some fun parties and great dicussions then. That's about it. A'm still new to this yet.
