I was born in Malaysia, my dad's parents were from India and he now lives in Puerto Rico. I never really knew him until my mom died from breast cancer when I was 18. I still needed her back then. She was french so I grew up in southwest france, 7 years of prison in a small village catholic boarding school, followed by 7 years of freedom in college in Toulouse, followed by a year of both in the paratroopers for military service (hell during daytime, heaven at night because I could get out to town !). I’m married with 2 kids who are wonderful and annoying like all kids. My wife is swiss and a mathematician (which is just as foreign). I regularly suspect her of being an alien from outer space. I’m a teaching assistant of french at UH, I hope to be able to continue teaching because I think I've finally found my calling. I used to make 8 times more as a suit-and-necktie IT consultant for AT&T at their world HQ in New Jersey but I didn’t care half as much and life was pretty miserable there anyway. Hawai’i is god’s freaking gift to humanity, especially if you have to raise kids. Having said that, I have to have my 3 monthes every summer in Europe. I can’t live without people around me, and I particularly miss my college buddies in France. Having a fit of laughter with your friends is a pretty convenient way to share an orgasm without having to deal with the messy homosexual copulation. I suspect that I have a borderline personality; I used to suffer from chronic boredom when I was young so I was always alone reading books. Now I’m a little less shy but I can hide it pretty well...and I still waste too much time reading on the internet. I’m quite lazy, mainly due to weaker-than-average willpower. But I just blame it on hormones. On the other hand, I don’t have much ego so I get along with almost anybody. I find other people fascinating (hence the myspace black hole where I regularly get lost). When I’m depressed I have to remind myself that the secret to happiness is to live for others and stop thinking about your own little world. Which is what I just did for the past hour ! So… Enough about me...what about you ?!
