My name is Zoran, and I am weird !!!
well the world calls me weird, but I tend to think for myself as quiet introvert Liberal who isn't affraid to be different. I live in a beautiful Croatia, in a small town of Rijeka. I was born at 04. of June in 1983 (so yes, I'm less than 30). I like psychology and Art. and making funny faces onto mirror. My life moto is “when life gives you lemons, you punch him right into his ugly face!” . Just kidding, it's not. Don't have a life moto. I live on my own.
i . like . to smell . wild . flowers. @->--
but i hate bugs. Disgusting creatures. kill it. with fire (I have those entomophobia). I like to spend my weekend in nature where I do boring stuff like raking the hay, killing the trees with axe, and yes - smelling the flowers. and eating hazelnuts! I ENJOY SCREAMING IN FRONT OF THE PEOPLE !
yeah, but only in theathre. I am amateur theathre actor. A bloody good actor (for an amateur). last time i screamed in front of 207 people... yeah, but don't scream in public for no reason - unless you are weird, or something. or getting raped.
i don't like computer.
when this horrible words came from the mouth of the person who spends more than 70 hours a week in front of .. computer... you can probably think that he is either lying or having personality disorder. Altough I do have a tiny little (but cute) PD, i really really don't like computer. There are nicer things in life than doing "internet stuff" and "computing"; like - smelling the wild flowers. and killing the trees! But I DO LOVE making nice things on computer - like programming and web design.
i am actually a construction worker.
before I went to "computer stuff" i worked as a construction worker. My first job was cleaner at shipyard. Third job was waiter. 900 work hours in 3 months. geese :-/. From waiter I went to janitor at one hotel, after that I was again construction worker (but on heights). I spent some time as a carpet cleaner, also. K it was only one day. So after a couple of years of doing nice jobs, I somehow got a "job" where I sit in front of computer for 8 hours. And talk with nobody but myself.. for years. And spin on chair. I hate computer!
Sometimes I moan with 8 dudes.
why yes, you guessed correctly! I workout every day in a small gym where I moan and sweat. and fart. Also, I love walking - i can walk for 20 kilometers without stopping. with my dog. I am sadist. I also tryed paragliding and survived, i've been hiking, drove carting and ride a horse (beautiful thing!). I even tryed Krav Maga for a month. those womans are evil! and too strong for me.
I am Microsoft Certified Application Developer
boring technical stuff. so i am web developer and web designer. I started making programs since I was 12, and my first computer was C64. I spent first programming years in Basic, then moved to Delphi and some Assembler for couple of years, after that i learned .NET C#, got some MCP+MCAD titles and stuff.. I have extensive knowledge of ASP.NET, .NET Framework 4, Silverlight 4, XML+XPATH+XSLT transformations, jQuery, AJAX, Web Services. Some basic SQL thingies. HTML w3c compliant. Also, I create social networking sites, news portals, intranet apps and more. yawn.
My ultimate goal is not to work.
why to lie ? I live for a day when I will sleep for at least 6 hours a day, and could afford a car. Maybe even some expensive shirt. To talk to people about weather. But that's for a future Zoran to achieve. For now I am just dreaming for a new shoes and some dog food. briquettes.
i . am . better than . myself.
during my 11 years of working with various people (from cleaners, to construction workers to programmers), I met many smart people, and even more idiots. There is no such thing as "natural talent", there are only people who try, fight and work more than others. you can succeed if you believe in yourself and in what you do. and sleep much less than others. And when I say "can succeed" I don't mean "will succeed". But you will have bigger chances.
Also, I HAVE A DOG !
