11 Interesting things about yourself

Seeing the interview on the blog I started thinking, what would I write about myself if I had to fill 11 points?
It's not as easy as it sounds actually! So... presenting my list. Feel free to comment, point and laugh and especially post your own lists |_P

1. I love making music and playing instruments. My collection includes among others a ukulele, violin, theremin and ocarina.
2. Most of my life I've never cared for Sci-Fi, thinking fantasy was vastly superior. In recent years I've come to love Sci-Fi (even more than fantasy).
3. I've made several video games and even won competitions - But I can't program at all. Yay for team efforts!
4. I hope I can one day live making art/be creative in some form - And often kick myself for not making it happen.
5. Despite spending a lot of my time drawing and painting I've never had any art-education (I wish I had).
6. I love all insects! Especially dragonflies. Insects are fascinating and the pinnacle of evolution.
7. I'm a collector at heart. I've had tonnes of different collections through my life. As my life changes, what I collect do as well.
8. I first learned to paint on canvas by painting miniatures for several years.
9. I always make my own Halloween/Carnival costumes. I try to make them unusual. I was a giant crab once.
10. I wish time would be changed into a system based on 10 like our numbers and measurement units. The current system is just a mess!
11. My favorite plants are ferns. They just look so awesome!

1. What (and if anything) is interesting about me I'll let others decide. Those who INVEST the INTEREST.

1. My greatest love is martial arts, I know multiple styles and there’s a club with my name in the title but I’m not really involved in it, and I think I can break a couple of speed records.

2. I hate moths and I'm terrified of the big ones, but I have no problem with butterflies.

3. I smoke weed and think all drugs should be legal.

4. I think consciousness gives rise to the universe, not the other way round.

5. I think the formal education system is evil and specifically designed to restrict thought rather than expand it.

6. I don't believe in ghosts but am fascinated by the possibility and love paranormal subjects.

7. I don’t believe in the big bang and think it’s just another creation myth.

8. I think the most important thing in life is any form of creativity.

9. I understand relativity.

10. The person whose abilities impress me more than anyone else is Derren Brown.

11. I think this music track has the best lyrics I've ever heard: Mad World Remix Ft Lowkey & Doc Brown

12. I think that ugly people, stupid people and Manchester United supporters, and possibly French people should be sterilised before they can reproduce. The gene pool needs some chlorine. :)

Don't be. This is not 1984. No one should be afraid to state their opinions, as long as it's in a proper and respectful way.
Besides, you don't post a list like this and not expect people to respond in some way.

On that note - "cleaning the gene pool" is a terrible idea from a biological view. Humanity is strong in part because of or diverse genes. That's why we will survive any disease and disaster the universe can throw at us. If we had a small "elite" gene pool we would be much much more vulnerable.

I agree that the pinnacle of evolution on Earth. Moths are just evil and creepy.

Yea that one was a just a silly joke. That's too many people to sterilise. But stupid and ugly french ManU supporters should definitely be neutered. It's just common sense.
