8 things you might not know about me!

Written by Alcides Fonseca at 2008/01/14

Following Pedro’s post on the meme “8 things you might not know about me”. Just like him, I’m not a fan of this kind of fashions, but I was thinking of writing about some of this stuff in the last months so I guess I’ll take the shot:



1 – For a few years now, I’ve wanted to be Prime-Minister. There was even a Teacher’s meeting 3 years ago where they discussed this?! I don’t like Portugal the way it is. But unlike those people who just rant about it, I am willing to do something about it. I’m in politics now and I still want to change our country. I’m just not sure if it deserves me… (Pretty cocky of me, I know… But I might go over this later).



2 – I’m emo. NOT that emo. I don’t fucking paint my nails nor dye my hair nor dress that way. But I do not jump around when I go to shows, I do listen a lot of emocore and I do feel depressed by society a lot.



3 – I am also straight edge, meaning I don’t drink alcohol, smoke, do drugs and I even don’t drink caffeine and I do hate medication. That’s because I am a person who like to be in control and those stuff just won’t let you be sober.



4 – Since 4th grade I don’t like studying. It’s just not interesting anymore, and I could use all that time to do other stuff. yeah, I know that basics are important, but I can learn them in another ways. I believe I am a very autodidact person.



5 – (Those who follow me on twitter already know this, but) I like to watch soap operas. There’s nothing more relaxing that laying around on the couch hearing soap operas while resting your eyes from the computer.



6 – I don’t dance. (I know it’s disappoint girls, but I do have another attributes!) I just don’t feel like it. And I’m not interesting in learning.



7 – I am an avid reader. I read a 400-pages book in a matter of hours. Almost only scifi and fantasy. I could spend my days reading-only.



8 – I want to start up my own company and launch a product or service that improves everone’s lifestyle.



Ok, now I also want to learn some hidden secrets of your life. Go ahead and post about the 8 things I do not know about you!
