Hi there! I decided to start this to get to know each other better, u know, for us, the new members, to know the "old members", and 4 the "old members" to know the new members... I guess I'll start with myself.. I'm from Mexico City and I'm 14 years old, I have 1 brother (9) and 1 sister (16), I'm a very talkative person, I laugh easily, I'm very explosive and I always say what I think. I love watching and playing tennis, reading, watching movies, listening music, I like all kinds of music, I don't have a favourite movie but I love The lord of the rings (the 3) and Death Poet society, my favourite colour is blue.. physicaly my hair is light brown, my eyes brown, I'm very white skined (they used to call me "Casper " in school), I'm not very tall 1'63m. (I still have 4 years to grow up!!) guess that's all. . ;D

I'm Vass(ily). I'm a Russian who has lived in Dubai, UAE, for 10 years. I am 17 years old now. Of course (for me it's 'of course' ) I'm am very patriotic, love Russia, miss Russia and everything you can feel about your country. I'm not a guy who's too talkative. On the contrary, I started communicatiog with my class mates outside the school primisses only a month ago. And that's only with one of them. I don't have any friends with which i talk to either. (oh my God, I didn't know that it will sound so bad.... ). Anyway, I wouldn't call myself a loner. I like talking to people, but finding the right ones is very hard. (That's why I'm on the computer all the time). I'll try to describe myself in three words or phrases: extremely lazy, introverted, open-minded. Hobbies? tennis and books... Films: something sad, very realistic and sad, psychological thrillers, some horror movies and FEW <very> original comedies. Music: rock, sad music.... What else can I say? I'm tall....

Hello to all new members (and to old too ) My name is Magda, I'm from Poland and I'm 19 years old. This year I started studies, so that's why you don't see me that often here... I study English, though I'm not too sure if I want to continue it... I'm not tall (1.64m) and I'm very skinny (won't scare you with my weight )... What kind of person I am...? Hmmm... stubborn, lazy, shy, calm and not very talkative (though when I talk to my friends in the internet I am able to ramble for hours ). Of course I love tennis, but my other hobbies are reading and music (listening and playing). I love traveling, but unfortunately I haven't been to many countries yet, so my big dream is to visit some new places. ok, I think that's all... I'm not good in talking about myself

good thread Pau (they called you Casper? ouch) okay, i'm Stephanie, i'm French (living near Paris) and i'm 23 (nearly 24 : . I live with my brother (nearly 21) and my parents (who drive me crazy ;D). I've been studying French law, English Law and Federal American Law for 5 years at uni. This year i'm preparing the entry exam for the lawyer school. And i'm about to start a training job at the civil court ;D I go to the cinema quite often, and i like different kind of movies. The music i listen to is mostly rap and Rn'B. I like reading, but i don't read a lot anymore , by lack of time, and because of the time i spend on the i-net. ;D Other thing i like to do is to hang out with my friends, which is becoming more and more difficult with each of us being even more busy each year. I've been in a few countries in the past, for vacations. And i definitely want to travel in the future!!...when i'll have the money for it that is
