ABOUT ME

About me...well... I don’t know... I am the type of person who always signs up for a million things, makes it up to 90% and then goes sick from the weariness... so every time this happens, when I get better, I always do one thing! Travel! I think of traveling as a mental medicine to everything! So, except from travelling and when I am not spending 12 hours a day at the university (i love my studies!), I watch plays, movies, attend, if any, interesting exhibitions (I am museum person- I could practically live in the MOMA or at TATE), I go out with friends, walk a lot and when I'm too tired to do all this, I stay home and read and write. I'm a member of my schools theater team and have participated in many of its works. Also I am very interested in politics; in fact I find a political side in everything. That way of thinking pushed me into “becoming” president of the student council of my school (which actually gave me more responsibilities, than space for upgrading and proposing change). My favorite day is Sunday! My cell phone stops ringing, I have no obligations (usually) and the best of it is that (tada,tada!) I get to read the papers and drink my coffee and listening to jazz! I could do this all day! (but just for a day, otherwise I could OD from caffeine...).

Thoughts for the future: get a Masters Degree in Performing Arts, live in New York , finnish everything I have started wrtting through the years, or else throw it away so it doesnt bug me..., travel more!

A person is worth as much as the things that concern him. (Marcus Aurelius)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped of a train while it was on move! (will never do it agian!...hopefully)

Got lost looking for the dorms of Imperial Collage (London) and while asking for information I asked a guard to: "Please shorten your “As” and “Es”, so I can understand what you are saying..." He didn’t like it much..
