I am struggling to find what to write. I do not have much to say. This piece of work produced for a University project. I am not really used to talk about my self. When I started to create the timeline (p.4) I didn’t know what to write. It is an excellent opportunity to learn about my self, but also to show to other people a small part of who I am. I hope you all enjoy “EGO” magazine, and I hope my life is not so boring.

injuries

FIRST INJURY: Since I was young I always enjoyed to play football and a was member of several local clubs. At the age of 15 while I was playing football in a summer camp someone when someone from the opposite team decided to play dirty. He pushe me and i lost my balance and I felt down, but my shoe sticked on the grass. I passed out and when I woke up my front ligament of the knee was broken.

SECOND injury: The first time I ride a motorcycle I was 13. Since then I always wanted to buy one. My family of course didn’t let me even to think about it. So when I turned 18 and I got a full time job I bought my Vespa scooter. After 1.5 years of ownership the inevitable hap-pened. The result of the MRI was clear. I had broke all the four ligaments of my right knee.

OUTCOME: So far I had two major surgeries. I want to be-lieve that I will not need any other in the future. The worst part is the recovery period. It needs a long time and a lot of exercise to be back on track. And even if you do everything right you never feel confident enough for your knee. But, there are not only bad aspects. During the periods of recovery I spent a lot of time alone with my thoughts, and evolved me as a person.

musiqausic was always important in my life. I started playing music at the age of 9, when ny father gave my an old percussion. From the first moment I knew

that i wanted to play the drums.My mother though had a different opinion. She said that the drums are too noisy, so instead I started taking piano lessons. Hopeless. I didn’ t like it. My mother used to play the guitar when she was young and we had a guitar in the house. So she learned me how to play some basic chords. Still, I could not forget my love for the drums. And finally when I became 14. I started drums lessons.

CRITICAL “EARS”:I consider my self blessed, that I started playing music, because I created a critical mind for the musicians and the bands. After some years when I was listening to a song I couldn’t hear any lyrics, beacause music was stronger than language for me. It is something like when you trying to understand at the same time someone that speaks your language and someone who speaks French. Impossible to understand any French...

THE BANDS:I can’t really say that I have a favourite band. But if I had to choose then I would say that Pink Floyd are the pionners of the music that I like. I also enjoy listening to new wave music and bands such as “The Cure”. Basically, I could say that I listen to every music that I like. Maybe one day I will listen punk, and the next day hip hop. But my core of music orientation is rock, alternative rock, metal, new wave, progressive rock and greek rock.

STUPIDITY:When I was younger, i could not quite understand the true meaning of music. MUSIC IS SOMETHING PERSONAL. I could literally have a fight with someone that was saying that dubstep and trance are music. I was saying that these kinds of music are only sound waves, and not music. But now I could say that I love some dubstep tracks. I changed how I think about music.
