Many Random Thoughts And Things About Myself

Yes, this is very random and personal list, but whatev.  I wonder if anyone will even read it, but I must clarify that it is still a work in progress.

-  On the same note, I strongly dislike when you’ve obviously seen someone before, but they claim they’ve never seen you.  I know you have.
