_____Finally, finally
I've got my own site. Here I can put all the crap I've got to say to
the world...
_____First, if we've never met before, - my name is Zorik (not the only
one, but full and favorite).
_____I live in Tel Aviv, that is in Israel, Middle East. This is one
of the major cities in Israel (250 thousand people). Some people love
the beach, the nightlife, others come here for business. As for me -
this is the only place in Israel a normal person can survive (at least
streets are straight). This is a very nice place to live. A little hot
in summer, but still nice. Though requires good cleaning.
_____I was born in 1977 in November (I'm a Scorpio!!) in Odessa. That
is in Ukraine (former Soviet Union republic), on the Black Sea northern
coast. A gorgeous city. It is big, green, it has a huge seaport, gorgeous
yellow beaches, warm people and the most beautiful girls in the world.
Also it is famous for it's humor. I love it. And I hope to go back someday.
_____About my personal characteristics - I think it is not me who has
to define them, but as soon as I have no one by my side to describe
them honestly, I will describe them alone. I am assertive, active, creative
and a bit smart, that let me achieve my goals most of the time (the
only problem is that not always I can set my goals correctly). I have
some sense of humor (at least this is what I'm being told - I always
wonder why), though most of my jokes are cynical.
_____ I'm very pessimistic - yes, I see the world as something unnecessary
for me to exist and that I have to live with it, though I don't understand
what do I need it for. As I like to say "You can't handle it, and
you can't drop it...".
_____ One of the rules I follow in my life - is to be honest. Of course,
you can't be honest all the time, but I strive to the perfection, trying
to be honest most of the time. At least I'm honest with myself, and
this is a lot.
_____Regardless to mentioned above, I am a very sensitive person. This
is not a characteristic that someone else can say about me. This is
about what I feel... It's not that I concern myself to others, it's
that I'm not a piece of stone, u know... But, my problem is that I always
try not to show it, it's like a habit - comes unconscious.
_____About
habits - I smoke and I smoke a LOT. And I like it. And if there was
a club of smokers - I would be a member in it. And I hate all the nonsmoking
areas. And it's hard for me to stand people who DO NOT SMOKE. (I've
never been that aggressive, but it drives you crazy when someone tells
you "can I please ask you not to smoke...". And, Gee, they
assume you immediately have to stop smoking! Once I tried to answer
"no" - and what do you think - I was almost beaten up! And
these guys claim they fight "for healthy generations". Well,
I have correct this - not "for", but "against healthy
generations" - if I was healthy when I smoked, I could not remain
healthy when I was beaten up.)
_____Though I smoke, I do not drink. You know, sometimes you really
want to fall down drunken, and to watch the carousel around you. But
my problem is that when I drink - I feel so bad, that I start to think
the reality is better. I can't sleep, I can't breeze, I can't see, I
can't walk. I feel like a fully handicapped in a helicopter.
_____I tried some drugs, but again, the problem is that it feels "not
real". I dream of feeling "real" and "good".
Really good.
_____ Usually I feel good when I success in something. Especially something
I've never tried before, something new. For example this site - as soon
as I new to WebMastering I will build it, update it and so on, but as
soon as I'll feel I know it - I'll quit it and the site will die.
_____Now, about my hobbies and interests.
_____My most favorite hobby is dining out. I like to look for nice restaurants,
try something new and unusual. I'm very sensitive about the food - if
there is no meat in the meal - it is not food. I'm kinda anti-vegetarian.
I like Mexican food, Japanese (though it's hard to find something real
in Israel), some of Italian, but most of all I like Thai food ( Oooh!
Is it tasty and spicy!!).
_____My other hobby is definitely computers. Since I was 12 I'm interested
in them. Then, in 1990 I had "Spectrum" - a small box
with a language called BASIC that I had to connect to my TV and download
files from my Audio Player. Then first IBMs came. Then DOS, Norton Commander,
and finally Windows. First the PC was only for playing games, of course,
but then I started to play with graphics, upgrade my hardware capabilities,
and so on... Unfortunately, after I came to Israel I had to quit with
my hobby. Still, I learned some new things as Lotus and Pascal, but
I had no choice for creativity. Now, when Internet came on the horizon,
I'm going nutz from all the staff you can get on the Web. So computers
turned to be my hobby again. As it used to be, I like to feel free and
to feel that I can do anything I want - so now I'm interested in all
latest upgrades for my PC (even if I don't really need them - I wish
to have them) and graphics, trying to be creative.
