Do you know...?

This is something I have wanted to do for a long time now. I don't know which season this is form me in GX , but has been some time now. The thing is that this place feels like a family or a good place whit good friends to talk to, but the thing is that we don't even know each other. So I want to get to know you better. I'm gonna go first and please give answers like I do. I think this is only going to help us to RP better, or simply to know stuff.

Name: Toms Ūdris aka Sirus. (Sirus has been my nickname for 6 years now. All my friends call me like that in real life. I don't know how it grew on to me but it just happened and now it's a part of me. It's also my stage name. And as far as I know it means hero in some kind of Arabic language.)

It doesn't affect my life in any negative way. My dream is to become a rockstar lol. I want to live in the USA because Latvia is a shit country. Or maybe Finland because my GF originally comes from Finland.

Now Im going to watch Ice hockey. I will continue latter. Be free to post stuff about yourself.

I think Don that we have very similar taste in movies.

Oh ye... I forgot to mention. I don't drink alcohol - at all!

I'm also into some European movies, lately, I've been watching more and more of Almodovar's work.

Let's hear it for the Boss!!!

Name: Joan Medrano (That's a male name in some countries, you bastards!)

Age: 28

Country: Born in the US but I've lived also in Canada, Mexico, Malta, Dominican Republic and Argentina.

Married? SOON! My gf is waiting for some papers to become US citizen. Until that happens, we can't get married. I already bought my Penthouse and I'm buying the furniture slowly . I will commit suicide errn.... get married maybe starting next year!

Music: Heavy Metal mostly

Movies: Action packed but I can watch almost anything except comedies and love stories because I think they're cheap

Work: I'm a Security System Consultant. I've been working here for 4 years now and I can say this is the job of my dreams. My boss is an @$$ but the job is a lot of fun

Hobbies: Gym and TWG only! Don't have a lot of free time and I guess it'll be less time next year when I tie a rope around my neck errn.... get married :p

Other things: I've never used any kind of drug which makes it kind of shocking for me when you all talk about it. In my recent trips to Europe I discovered that it's regular for teenagers over there, but it wasn't that way while I lived on Malta. Obviously, my teen age was in 90s when you all were kids, so your our times are pretty different.

Something weird about me:

- When I'm anxious I either eat my nails or do some Abs crunches

- I recently found out that stupid people gets me mad. Should I visit a doctor or something?

- I love putting glasses of water over my bed and I've never dropped any in my lifetime. I told my girlfriend about it and she told me that I better stop doing that when we live together. DAMN IT!

- I can't wear any shoe that is not black. I simply hate the rest of the colors.

I guess this is too much information!!!

Sirus! How you like hockey today?
For others ...This was a hell of a match! In the start o third period our team lost 0:2 but in 2:08 minutes they scored 3(!!!) goals!!! And later in the end of match score in empty net!

And now about "old clown" - me
Name: Ervins Brine
Age: 37
Country: Latvia, Riga
Married...? F..ing no!!! bachelor, but have irregular sex with some girl.... Ok ok, maybe it must call a girlfriend but we live separate! Possible she expecting something more from me (some move) but I don't need closer relationship... at least not now (BS, hold on buddy!!!! Don't put your neck in that "rope"!!! ;D)!

Music: all kind of rock.... in 80- ies when I was teenager, I listen from Bon Jovi to Napalm Death.... then Thrash and Death Metal, then Grunge, then all kinds of alternative and indie.... then folk and Gothic, but now I listen all of these! I like Pantera, old Sepultura, Testament, Megadeth, Metallica, (last summer they was in Riga), I like Alice in Chains (rest in peace Lane Staley), Soundgarden, Creed, now it's Nightwish, Tracy Chapman, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen! And of course acoustic monster Dave Matthews Band.... they are awesome!

Movies: All kind of movies from comedies to horrors! Favorite movie... they are three - "Last of the Mohicans" directed by Michael Mann in 1992 (soundtrack was awesome too!!!), "True Romance" directed by Tony Scott and "Strange Days".

Work: I was work at state treasury about 15 (f..ing) years, but now I'm unemployed! F...ing crisis you know....

Other things: I am sober now about 2 years (Sirus! Don't even start drink! Don't even think about it!!) and feel really good! I'm not smoke anything about 15 years and feel great (two times try mar... grass but it wont work on me so I don't continue)!

Hobbies: listen music, watch movies, some times with friends or GF go to or just watch on TV hockey and soccer.

And resume: I'm "average joe"! But I like that! I've seen a lot when I was teenager (ride about half of Soviet Union which most of you probably don't even know), I've did a lot of things (good and bad) when I was younger... now I just enjoy life and live peacefully!

Name: Stuart Fahy (surname is Irish and great grandparents are from Galway)
Age: 27
Country: UK (England more specifically)
Married? Don't ask scary questions! Nope. Not gonna happen! Never, ever, ever! So, no
Music: I like most music and will listen to anything that I think sounds good no matter what style it is. My preference though is Indie and then Rock. Don't like hip-hop, country or majority of rap usually although there are some good stuff. Will occassionally listen to some pop music (like I said, if it's good, its good)
Favourite artists at the minute are Killers, Kings of Leon, Snow patrol, stuff like that. Also like Shinedown, Fall Out Boy, Oasis, Jet, Steophonics and Johnny Cash (but who doesn't?!)
Movies: Also like a range of movies. So long as the story is good I'll watch it, don't care whether it's got great special effects or superb graphics or its in HD or whatever. A good film is a good film. My main favourite type is gangster films. Untouchables, Godfather trilogy, Scarface, Heat, Goodfellas, etc.
Work: At the minute I've been doing general temp work since I left uni 2 years ago. My current job is as a support worker for a blind guy (I'm a glorified guide dog!). But my aim is to work in motorsport for a race team (that's what my degree is in)
Hobbies: Music, films, most sports especially football (proper version ) and motorsport.
Other things: Never smoked anything or taken any drugs. Unless you count alcohol of course. I've definitely had my fair share of that! Haven't drunk so much lately, but enjoy a nice beer. Either european lager or a good old english bitter (that's proper man beer that!). Played a fair bit of football until a few years ago and have moved on from that dream to getting a job in motorsport. Really don't want to work in an office, that just bores me. So I'm going for my hobbies as a job.
Thinking about doing some travelling around the world within next couple of years. My friend has done quite a bit and keeps trying to get me to go with him. If only I had the money.

most sports especially football (proper version Wink )

Nice one Dixon I love American Football, but I too don't like the fact that americans call it soccer, real football I mean. Let us be honest, "soccer" is a lot older than American Football.
Also, you should try Portuguese beer, I know when we have English supporters in the Champions' matches they get drunk really fast

just wanted to say, I fn love shinedown

i agree lol

Right now I'm learning to sing Shinedowns 45 with my vocal teacher. F-ing high but I will manage. Give me few months and I will nail that song

Here in Latvia I guess about 95% of teenagers from age of 12!!!! uses alcohol and about 60% do some-kind of drug. Before I started smoking pot last year if someone had told me that I would have thought his joking but sadly it is like that.
Ok I get it like 90% of my friends are musicians or other kind of artists so yhee art and drugs have always been like close together so I understand them (and myself) for smoking some pot or licking stamps (LSD - lead singer disease lol ). Those kind of drugs affects the way people see, hear or smell - lucy in the sky with diamonds They are artistic and stuff. I have even smoked some pot with my guitar teacher so we could jam for hours. Bohemia man. Oh and LSD and pot are the only two drugs that can not give chemical addiction!!! I have done my studies before I even touched something like that. If you get addicted to pot that's only your own fault and nobodies else. Thought I have never done LSD and I'm not planning to.
But shit you know whats the scary part? Some of kids my age do heroin and cocaine. That's fucked up. Those drugs ruin life's. Non of my friends uses them but some of the kids I go to school with do. That so f-ing stupid. But what can you do - they are "gangsters". Ok enough about drugs.

Awesome! I'd love a go myself (I'd probably pee myself too!) but right now I'll have to make do with just being the mechanic.


Don, I've tried Super Bock(?) before. That's a very nice beer, but its difficult to get over here.

Anyone want to recommend any Shinedown to listen to? I only have Us and Them.

fly from the inside

Pardon my ignorance, what's a shinedown?

Don you now about a "year old" here!!! Look at your join date.... I'm now about a "half year" old here.... my longest "run" in any fed!!!! Almost second family!

I know, I've been around since the beginning, when BS told me about the contract he also said that if the roster wasn't completed until the first show, that we would disband as a fed... Still, what's a ShineDown? xD

It'll be a year tomorrow that I'm officially with my girlfriend, It seems I've been longer with eXcess

Shinedown are a band. Have a look on youtube or somewhere for some of their stuff (thanks for the suggestion Mason)

Tomorrow is my 1 year since joining date. And the end of the month will be the anniversary of our first EVER show. Who'd have thought we'd be here now 1 year on??
