Name: Gerry (Jerry)

Thanks for clearing that one up. It was troubling me.

You would be surprised at how many people I have heard mispronounce that name when reading it..."gerry...like gary right?" "NO!"

[wedgie]

I guess the people of the UK are a little better with names than the Aussies are then, right? ;)

[TribulatioN]

Hey do you think another thing people can add is an interesting fact about them that other people wouldn't know? That could help out the purpose a bit.

I personally have over 100 songs by them/The Postal Service (which will be an included bonus), so I can probably find 30 or so to use that haven't been used yet.

I personally find this to be a brilliant idea, so I'm posting.

Name: Aaron.
Age: 14. 15 on June 24.
Livin' in: Malaysia, the little country on top of the smaller, cleaner Singapore.
Description: If you know me in real life, I'm a seriously average guy, and rather not socialise. I like to be a part of things that interest me, given I don't let procrastination and laziness get in the way. I have moved recently from a pretty decent school to a... less decent school, full with trolls, flamers and spammers, to put in in a way. So I mostly find my refuge among internet communities, among INTELLECTUALS. I like drawing, especially in the Western cartoon/comic style, as opposed to the HUNDREDS of mange artists in Malaysia. I'm currently planning a big project with smort and a bunch of other guys, still in development.
Plans: If I have the money, I would seriously want a graphics tablet, and Photoshop. I also plan to get a lava lamp, but those are rare here. Not really caring for school at the moment, as there are few I can talk to who are INTELLECTUALS.
Stuff I can't do: I can't play musical instruments. Not one. Either that or I wasn't bothered to learn. As of now, I also am not skilled at dancing, blowing bubblegum, riding a bike, swimming, and love. Dangit.

Name: William
Age: 17, 18 on Christmas Eve
Living: On the far south coast of NSW

Description: Hmm, well I'm a pretty average guy. I just finished yr12 and am in the middle of HSC exams, I've got Extension English, Ancient History,
Engineering and Physics to go, so I've got an intense week lined up.

Interests:Foremost just hanging with my friends and going to parties. Rockclimbing would be my biggest passion, although I don't do it as much as I want. I'm also into skateboarding and soccer although I'm pretty hopeless at both. I'm pretty heavily into music, as well as reading, mostly fantasy and science fiction but anything really. I guess I like writing, although having just finished a 10 000 word short story for Extension english 2 I don't think I feel like beginning any other projects at the moment.

Plans: Well, I had signed up for quite a few courses but by spectacular oversight didn't realise that almost all needed some sort of extra submission process (portfolio, interview, sample essay) so now I'm down to my last preference, a batchelor of arts at ANU, haha. Should be a blast.

[Lenny]

@wolfgang: Oh, HSC. Fun fun fun. The year 12s at my school are currently doing that, and it's a real shame that they've left school now because I was friends with many of them. At any rate, good luck for all of your exams.
Oh, coming to the ANU? Cool. I thought you had to have a portfolio for Art, but that's OK. Any Art specifically that you're into?


@Ignate: I don't know about intellectuals. It may be that here there are more than school, but I reckon if you did a percentage check you'd find that school would probably have a higher percentage of intelligent people. Really depends on your definition of intelligence, too.

@BeHappy: Wow, music, sport, and relationships (with females... OK, only one). Cooool. :P
With this I could easily get into a discussion about age for relationships and whatever, but I'm not going to be annoying.

Will post replies to pages 2-5 probably not for a while. I'm flat-out this weekend and next, but if I get some time during the week I'll look at them.

A batchelor of arts isn't an arts course per say. I'll probably be majoring in History and Philosophy. Or I might well switch to journalism, seeing as that's what I had as my top priority.

Wow; Kenya, America, Cape Town, but you're Danish? You've been around a bit! :D

It's nice to read up on you all, you all have such interesting lives. I've refrained from posting here until now, because all I can say is that my name is Adam Gray, 17, have spent all of them living in Hillingdon, Greater London (a reasonably nice place, decent suburbia, but still on the London transport network. Shame about the inhabitants) and I'm studying Applied Maths, Physics, Chemistry and IT, aiming to get into Bath or Southampton universities on Civil Engineering courses next year. I'll listen to any form of rock-based music, from The Feeling to Incubus, but have no musical ability of my own. And unless playing videogames counts as a hobby, I don't have any of them, either. =\

Ooh, I like engineering, it's pretty interesting. You should learn to play an instrument, you'd really benefit from it.

That's actually code for "be worried".

Exams are finished for me so I'll soon be able to start giving this topic the attention I wanted to give it a month ago.

And hey, this is pinned now? Huh, I need to pay more attention.
