HOBBIES

INTERESTS

Football has been apart of my life for over 18 years so it could never be a game or just a hobby, it's life. I play once a week, and I also enjoy watching it. I am a huge fan of the English Premier League.

I enjoy non-fiction and academic books. I read non-fiction because I enjoy hearing about real people , doing real things in real places. Often times non-fiction truth is more compelling than fiction.

I equally enjoy reading acadamic (software engineering and software development) books... Programming has been my life, and there is nothing more appealing than reading about new programming languages and new technologies.

Drawing was a huge part of my life when I was in elementary school. I haven't developed my drawing skills as much as I wanted to but, I still enjoy sketching on pieces of papers.

I like watching films, especially Hollywood movies which are famous for their story, dramatic or comedy scenes. Since a child I have been watching them. A movie a week will do the trick for me, very relaxing.
