I'll bite too.

Name: Arthur Hung (Also obvious)
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Location: Toronto
Occupation: Student

Interests: Writing/Reading/Philosophy-Psychology-PD (to me, these are all so heavily interconnected, mentally I classify them as just "Strategy")/Badminton/Chess/Quality Foods of all sorts

Current Intentions:
  • Delivering intentions to create higher levels of consciousness to everybody in the world (If higher levels of consciousness are not the key to happiness, I don’t know what is)
  • Working for Steve Pavlina by the end of 2 months time (someway, somehow, somewhere), that's a reason for why you see me put so much effort into my posts!
  • I intend to help inspire as many people as I can to find jobs that they love and grow rich from it—and on that note, what better way to do this than to work for someone you highly respect that has the same desire?
  • Working for another person’s website which I don’t feel like naming (sorry)
  • Working out a system to make $10 passive income in a month by the end of August
  • A state of perpetual happiness
  • A state of perpetual confidence
  • Never getting sick (I do have a tiny bit of sniffles right now, though I don't consider that really getting "sick")

Please feel free to add me to your MSN and/or private message me anytime. Note: I don't check my MSN email account or even go onto MSN all that much for that matter. The easiest way to contact me is by PM.

As a freelance writer, what do you write about, April? And for whom?

I write my eNewsletter and blog COMPASS, about PD and the fundamental changes I make in my life - it is a passion that I discovered only a few years ago in Cape Town.

Wanna let me know? Berend

Friends are fun, so i will bite
Name: Adrienne
Gender: Female (total tom boy geek tho)
Age: 25
Location: USA
Occupation: Little bit of everything since i like so many things
Interests:Reading, writing, programming, laughing, hiking, white water, climbing, bouldering, snow tubing (think i will try skiing here soon), playing basketball and volleyball (i am dying to learn to play racquetball but i dont know anyone around me that plays) and anything i think may be entertaining. I love to play in the rain and try new things. I love to make people thinking and i am told i do a very good job of that I constantly struggle to understand people, cause i just dont get humans sometimes
I am a volunteer EMT and i spend alot of my time at the firehouse.

Right now i am working mostly on my writing and programming skills.
I have been pondering most where the line is drawn between tolerance and acceptance and standing up for what you believe in (if there is a line that is)
And i have been thinking about where i want to move. When i have the whole USA to chose from, i just have to figure out where i want to go...

As to online, i am never online much. But i am willing to change that if i meet more people that would like to talk online.

It is nice to see so many details about people. Great idea Pink!

Adrienne

Nope, I had that particular one made for me. I do know how to do that type of thing via Photoshop (cell shading), but drawing the sketch by hand is what takes too much time for me (slow drawer).
