About me

I am a young man, currently attending high school in Greece (specifically in the most insignificant ass-end of nowhere) and with great dreams for my future. I spend most of my spare time playing basketball (I have been the best in my school for some time now), using my computer and browsing the Internet (now using Opera). I am passionate about 3D modelling and design and I am learning at a geometric rate. I have worked on a couple of projects with impressive (to myself atleast :) ) results for someone with my experience but I still strive to better myself. I also program in C++, Basic and soon Python and XHTML. I enjoy working out, although lately I have been thrown off schedule. I also practice playing the piano and learn music theory.

When I finish my high school "studies", I intend to work my ass off to get a reasonable SAT score so I can get a scholarship in a reasonable university in the USA (following in the footsteps of my cousin).

Through 'My Opera' I intend to meet people with similar interests to myself (or any interesting interests :) ), chat and exchange ideas and even have a few friends.

Well, that's it. I hope I haven't tired you people and I that I haven't bragged excessively. Please e-mail me if you want to chat, 'cause at the moment I am pretty freakin' bored.

My work

Currently I am attending high school so many kinds of work are out of question. However, from time to time I do engage myself in manual labor as I belive in it's merits. Also, as a "part-time" 3D designer I intend to sell some of my work on the Internet. Finally, in the summer holidays I work in the family-run hotel business, located in Sykia, of the Halkidiki (or Chalkidiki) region of Greece: www.hotelsykiahalkidiki.com
