Hmmm... I can eat, sleep, poo and sex. What else, hmm... OK I am a programmer but I am not going into detail of that (otherwise it gonna be a long long page). I once reverse-engineered a Xbox game called - Dead or Alive 3 so all the girls wears lingerie (had to draw my own designed).
Hmm I also play piano... not very good at it tho (consider most of my classmates have PhD in piano performance).
I speak Mandarin, Taiwanese, English and some Cantonese & Japanese.

Japanese is great, though I took about a month in lessons, but that's about it. I don't count english as a language just to get the numbers up, but here's what I can do: English, French, Arabic some Japanese and some Spanish.

By my definition of *some*, it means: I cannot fully express myself by using that language, but I can understand it (like watching TV show without subtitle); or if you throw me in the middle of nowhere in Japan, I can still communicate without using any other languages but Japanese.
DO you know how to read Arabic, tho?

I can read and write Arabic. I am fluent in Japanese and Spanish enough to get me by too. Infact, it took me only an hour to learn the basics of Japanese (What's your name? I am ..., Is this yours? This is mine, etc), but I only know simplifed Japanese. It'll take me forever to learn the symbols.

That's funny, I did a year in Japanese School when I was 17. Ended up with a pass pass merit merit, nothing particuarly exciting, and I have forgotten most of it now.
You see when I was a youngster I always wanted to be a Stockbroker in Japan.
Don't you think it's really cool we all enjoy a game of chess? I can feel an internet tournament coming up.

I started to learn hieroglyphs but my english was too bad at that time to understand the english explanation of egyptian grammar. I also needed a dictionary for all the vocabulary stuff (I needed to translate from english to german first:-).
So what I am able to express in english you can read here.
Forget about hieroglyphs:-)))
I can use a lot of languages to explain that I don't speak them:
No parlare italiano!
Je'ne compris pas!
Isch verschde dem scheisendreck net!
All languages: "eh?"
No idea if misspelled.
I have no talents, just hobbies.
And I enjoy them. |
