Dennis and Erwyn tagged me *g* -thanks

The game is that I’ll have to tell some useless trivia about myself, fair enough.

I am usually the youngest in a group. Being born on 5 November ‘82, makes me 24 years old. This is not a bad thing at all, I’ve got some spare years to catch up with most of the people surrounding me J.
Oh and -since everybody writes about these things- my first computer was a Pentium –my father had his first personal computer (one of the very first) around the time I was born. I never owned (or even recall seeing!) a Commodore and therefore had to learn programming in Java –somewhere around the age of 14.

I don’t have a drivers license. Embarassing, I know... In the (already) half a dozen years I was allowed to get one, I seemed to have more important goals to persue than getting a license (which makes it sounds like a good thing). Besides that, I live in Amsterdam and getting around town by bike is by far the easiest (and fastest) way to go. If I need to travel further the train gives me a good opportunity to play around with my laptop/ catch up on sleep/ whatnot. Who knows, maybe i'll start taking lessons this year.

I always wanted to join Microsoft Corp at the age of 30. When I got a chance to do so last year, I decided I was too young move across the world because of work. Still very much enjoy working for Microsoft, from time to time, as a contractor (from home J). Nowadays I plan to kick my smoking-habit by the time I am thirty.

I am a blond. But to hide my natural hair color I dye my hair black. I am not dumb – you know!

I have 3 sisters, of which 2 are more than 20 years younger. Judith (my twin), Leah (3 y/o) and Noa (2 y/o). As you might have guessed the last 2 are from my dad’s second marriage –none the less, they are real sisters to Judith and me (they keep up with conversation a little less though). No kids of my own ( …or at least- I know of).

5 people whose time I’d like to waste:  Tom, Fernando, Ed, Gael and Teun
