The backbone of your life
February 12, 2010 at 3:25 am
For my daughter it's her music, for others it's sport and for some religion. For me I suppose I would have to say it's programming but is it important to have main passion in life and if so, what's yours?

Now you've made me feel bad. I should have said that as well :S So, apart from family. A selfish passion.

I do my fair share of programming (C, C++, Java, to name a few) as well. Hm, I also spend a lot of time on computer games (TF2, Half-life, Mass Effect) and school shit (sports and homework), but I think it'd be playing the oboe. I play in a couple ensembles at school and around town.

Design build and compete with combat robots. Drive, steer, and fly anything remote controlled (cars, tanks, boats, planes, helicopters).

Riding motorcycles fast.

The moment of oneness when it all comes together along a windy road at speed.

There are few things better.

Not even flying offers such moments(for me at least)

If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.

Creativity. I write, draw, and sew costumes.

Anything car related. I have a twinturbo Lexus that I built from the ground up and I'm starting my own business in the field.

That, and paying guitar.

Having sex is pretty high up there as well.
