I'm from:
Heaven really, was educated in France, and loved every moment of my time there - I do go back to Paris every other month or so. Currently attached in Malaysia to an NGO - and the heat is killing me softly - the food here is amazing! when you cook it yourself otherwise most stalls use MSG, and unless you want to go bald within 3 months...best find a non-msg resto like McD or something
I found RT when:
I discovered that the free templates didn't suit my lifestyle anymore :-) Had loved IG a long time when it first released, and am using it for the site
For a living I:
pretend to not be busy {kidding!} I love work when the work is something I enjoy - like R & D, or reviewing stuff {gadgets + music} - basically I'm an Infobot - and no, I've not left my childhood yet
The best film I've ever seen is:
hmmm this is gonna be tough - I guess I love all the Classics with Audrey Hepburn, ET {Elisabeth Taylor} and ... the most recent ones are mostly European movies
On the iPod right now and always will be:
oh gawd - Janet Jackson is my favourite now and will always be - though I like Jamelia, Jacques Brel, Serge Gainsbourg, the plethora you can't imagine. I love the sound of silence at most times
The thing I'd like most to do, right now, that I haven't done is:
Travel the world with my T42 + Digicam, and record the world as it is without prejudice
Something I'm really proud of is:
... this world - it can be a daunting place to live, but hey if you believe in a God, this is the place to be!
