Yes I am going away for a few days later in the year with my friends I play football with to Bournemouth.
Should we have a forum argument right now?
YES!... NO!...YES!... NO!
Is that what you had in mind?
No. I'm a peaceful person.
Are you obsessed with something?
I don't think so, but truth be told there is someone I don't seem to be able to stop thinking about ;)
Does that sound too creepy?
Yes it does a bit, but If you cant stop thinking about me Anfield, just come out and say it. :p
Can you remember your first day at school?
Yeah, I was 7 y.o. and had short hair and a horrible blue and white uniform. School was round the corner ( building is still there but now it’s a university ) and there were many chestnuts trees in the court. We should have been careful because it was September and we had risked to get the nuts on our heads ( or maybe that’s why I’m so abnormal....:confused: ). I was in the same class with 2 girls from my street and one of them remained a dear friend until 2 years ago when she died of a terrible disease. It was exciting to get the books ( although I already knew to read/write) and I remember “comrade”Secanu - the teacher who for four years pretended small “attentions” from our families.:p etc. etc.
O tempora, o mores.......
Did you get on well with your classmates?
fairly well...infact yes most of my close friends are from way back (high school, even primary school)
school or college/uni? what did you enjoy more?
Elementary school ( until 8th grade ) was the best. School was easy, classmates great and it was fun. The high school years were a nightmare cos I attended one of the best HS in the country but I was too dumb for it and I had to struggle to finish it. It's probably the period that threw me to this extreme of low self confidence and the idea of "good for nothing" started there.
The uni years weren't too hard - my poor knowledge from that HS helped me to be among the best students, still I was always frightened I'm not able to pass the exams. Fair to say that in that period it was very difficult to enter a uni and once admitted you couldn't graduate without hard work. Neither in HS nor in uni we weren't united and friends so I don't have great memories of those times. I can't understand why some ex coleagues from HS keep trying to organize class reunions almost every year. On that time we weren't able to go out for a beer.....
What were the classes you didn't enjoy in school?
I don't remember :( . Probably literature. It's odd because now I enjoy reading and am a stickler for proper written English and grammar :mark: .
Was university tuition expensive where you attended?
On "my time" it was for free but I repeat, entering was very difficult and required a lot of expensive private hours of preparation ( I also got them for free cos my brother and a cousin were prepearing people for exams ) . During uni studies I also had a scholarship because I got good marks. :p
I was lucky because on that time my father died and I hadn't any other income.
What mattered when you chose what to study?
Initially I studied to be a teacher (Bachelor of Education) but part way through I realised that there was no way in hell that I wanted to teach. I completed the degree, then a few years ago I did a second degree in Info Tech.
Do uni degree actually have any real purpose?
In my country getting a degree has become a sort of a fest, anyone can get it on the condition to have enough money to pay for it. People collect master by master without having any knowledge or interest in that field, just to be proud in society with their titles and to mention it in a CV. Or maybe it’s just due to the old times when only a few managed to enter a uni. Now people “study” ( do they? :confused: ) just to prove they’re smart ( are they? :confused: ). That’s another reason I’m disgusted with life, I had to work hard and pass difficult exams while other people pass through a university like a goose through the water. Once you have the degree you may wipe your a¤¤ with the diploma, nobody would hire you for your knowledge or qualities but for the person behind you (could be a husband, a relative, a godfather ) that could bring an advantage to the employer.
Have you ever failed an exam during your uni years?
Nope. 3.4 GPA :)
In hindsight would you have chosen a different university study?
Yes for my education degree since I have never used it, but no for my I.T. degree
what are you planning to do for the weekend since there is no GP
I take care of my old sick mother who's totally dependent of me so I can't plan anything - with or without a GP. My only consolation would be the forum so I'd be more than happy to see some activity here.
What is the age when you can officially retire?
I dont really know. Being 28 its a long time until I retire sadly and they keep changing the age. I think its likely to be 69 or 70 by the time I get there.
What do you think is the best thing about your country?
As a poet said, it's a sad country full of humour. If you don't take into account it's inhabited you might like it.

What do you think is the best thing about your country? .
Its sense of humour. Come to the UK and you'll see we mostly laugh at ourselves. I think thats why we have given the world so much humour. :p
I know its not a massively important thing, but I love a good laugh and I reckon we are pretty good at it.
Have you ever seen a ghost or anything similar?
My new girl friend :) - but it's probably just because she has wings sprouting out of her shoulder blades.
What is the nicest thing anyone has ever tried to do for you, that has turned into an absolute disaster?
Hard to pick one cos anytime people are nice to me I screw up the opportunities. Let's say one with a serious impact on my life: one of my cousins helped me to find this job.:devil:
What was the biggest embarassment of your life?
That's easy. Sneaking to my girlfriend's front door in the middle of the night to leave a bunch of roses on her doorstep, then tripping over her up cat and falling against the side of the house and waking the house up, only to find that I was at her next door neighbour's front door instead of hers. - He wasn't impressed:) (before any one doubts this 'Hollywood comedy" moment, there are pictures available!)
It is better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all - is this true, or a load of absolute garbage?
I will have to download them from Chantele's phone first :).
No I have never been divorced - never being married is one of the reasons :). Was meant to be married a few short years ago, but we lost her in a road accident :(
What thing in your life stands out the most. ie. is there a single event that has fundamentally changed you?
Don't think my life has ever fundamentally changed. I always had a boring existance.
Have you ever fell asleep at work?
I arrive at work asleep, wake up near lunch time, doze off at 1pm and wake up in time to go home.
Does the previous answer indicate that I need a change of career?
No. It indicates you have a great job. :devil:
(Despite sleeping so much ) Is your job stressful? :p
It can be at times, yes.
What's your favourite vegitable? (lame Q, I know, I just can't think of anything else right now :rolleyes: )
Peppers and tomatoes
What's your fav after shave?
I don’t really have a favourite as a bottle last me forever :mark: . Currently I have a bottle of Adidas something-or-other, Polo, and Hugo Boss (I think the latter was purchased by the wife :mark: ).
Do you sunburn easily?
I have greek roots so my pigmentation is kinda mediteranean. I become red from the first day at the seaside but it quickly turns into a nice tan. My best friends who are blondes are mad seeing I become darker than a gipsy in about 4 days.
Do you like to lay on a beach?
YEs and no. If I am alone on the beach, Greenpeace would assume I am stranded and try to roll me back into the sea :)
Is Steven Hawking a genius, or a genuine nut-case?
Genius or nuts, who cares? It's important just to don't be normal.:devil:
But haven't you already asked this before?
What's your fav site on the net?
Apart from Motorsport Forums? :p I would have to say youtube. There is so many unusual things on there to see. From Football to Railways and from animals to Motor racing.
Failing that I would say some of the other forums I am with.
Do you like Humidity? i.e when its hot and sticky outside.
(reason I ask is I was talking to my Croatian Uncle and he loves it when its hot and sticky, yet most UK born and bread tend to hate humidity, I wonder if it depends where you come from?)
Don't know if I understand the "sticky" thing....
In my hometown the summer is very hot and with a high humidity factor. Due to this the index of thermic discomfort is very high and exceed the normal limits. The result is that the clothes are usually wet on me and I hate this feeling. I always wish to be near a pool or lake and jump in it with my clothes on. Unfortunately this summer I should stay home and I'm afraid it would be too much for my (already damaged) brain. Still I love summer....Would like a holiday....
Otherwise I hate both rain and snow. Hate them from the bottom of my heart.
What team ( apart from your country in case it's qualified )will you support at World Cup?
Most English people will call me a traitor, but I really would love Messi to win a World Cup. So Argentina for me. Once England lose their first two games and are out. :p
Will you watch much of the FIFA World Cup?
I'd like to but as you know my life took an unexpected turn and I can't plan anything. Some of the matches will be at 1.00 AM ( my time) and I already behave like a zombie, what will happen if I don't sleep at all? Besides none of my friends or coworkers (not even the guys) are interested and I don't have. somebody to talk about matches. I would have liked to be able to watch the matches on an open air pub. in the old center.....
Lol . I remember the times when our television didn't broadcast the world cup and all we could do was to watch them at bulgarian tv with improvised antennas.. I didn't have one and. god knows at what lengths I went to watch the matches....
What was the first world cup edition you've watched?
France 1998. I was 12 and was not into football in 1994.
Which is your favourite World Cup so far?
Espana '82 for the games.
USA 94 for our great celebrations in the street cos we did incredible matches.
Who is the best football player you've ever seen?
( please be original and don't say Messi. I'm fed up with this guy :p)
Too hard to pick just one. Steven Gerrard goes close, add to this George Best, Garincha, Pele atc.
Who will win this edition of the world cup?
