Jaemz

I want my own deus ex machina...

About Me

+ Hi, the name's Jaemz. (aka James, munky, Jam-Es, nyet, anjing)
+ Currently unemployed. In film school, when they told me that 70% of film students drop out or stop studying film, and that out of the 30% remaining, just about 29.9% of them live on the streets, bumming around, they weren't kidding! o_O
+ A struggling artist.
+ A secret poet.
+ Indonesian-Chinese, born in the Philippines.
+ I speak English and Indonesian.
+ I don't speak a word of Tagalog.
+ Jakarta is my hometown.
+ I'm 20, turning 21 on June 12!
+ I am 1.72m tall (almost 5'8).
+ My most overused phrase on MSN is "haha.."
+ I'm not a joker and most of the time I can be a dork, but most of the time I'll just do some pretty stupid sh*t, that ends up being somewhat funny.
+ I'm an easy-going guy who's always up for meeting new friends and always down for a good time.
+ I may appear quiet, but when you get to know me, you'll see my loud and crazy side of me (and it's not always a bad thing =P).
+ I'm an extroverted introvert, which people sometimes mistake as lack of confidence.
+ I'm also a bit self-conscious, which doesn't help.
+ I've lived all around the world and have family scattered everywhere.
+ I tend to blur the "line" between family and friends, as in my family members are my close friends and my friends are like family.
+ I'm a hopeless romantic. I can't help it.
+ For a perfect first date, I'd take a girl out to a romantic dinner overlooking the ocean and then take a walk along the beach.
+ I'm naturally empathetic, in that I like to listen to people's problems, comfort them and offer advice.
+ I like to go clubbing.
+ I have a lingering desire to graf, although it's pretty near impossible to do that in Singapore.
+ If I weren't doing film, I would be a graphic designer.
– Although I'm half Chinese, I don't know a word of it or Mandarin. But I'd be very glad to meet someone willing to teach me a thing or two...
