Working on a Career

About Me

Warning: This is the most boring ABOUT ME description, but I'm worth adding as a friend on MySpace because I rarely post bulletins - but when I do, its for a party or something like that.
I enjoy meeting new people. I am really motivated to develop a career. I like to travel internationally a lot, but it is hard to get away from work these days. I am not very smart - there are a TON of people who are WAY smarter than me in lots of subjects. I am totally addicted to the internet.
I have kept a personal website at www.nickgray.net for almost TEN YEARS now. Dorky, huh? And I publish pictures at flickr.com/nickgray and videos over on Vimeo - Nick Gray's video clips .
I used to travel a lot. I flew to the following countries: Canada, Mexico, Italy, France, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium, Cayman Islands, Aruba, Bahamas, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Guadeloupe, Thailand, Laos and India. For Christmas I'm going to Whistler with my family. My family rules.

I adapted this cool layout from Mike Industries , which my friend Jakob told me about.
