Update

Name (that you go by): Still unpronouncable in English.
Age: 16
Occupation: Grade 11 student, tutor, sports coach (for very little kids...)
Future Aspirations: meet as many Downers as possible
Goal in life: travel the world
Short term goals: finish my English assignment. Slightly more long-term... decide on approximately what I want to do in Uni and beyond
Passion: climbing. Chocolate. Stuff.
Hobbies: Downsing, playing piano, reading, trumpet, short-lived artsy inspirations...
Famous for (okay this is where you get to brag about yourself): Being PessiMistic (yes, it has 2 capital letters), complaining, folding paper plates into origami, semi-falling from a 2-ish storey height and scaring everyone (but it was quite fun)...

Fave book: a Russian book callef A Zori Zdes' Tihiye (The Dawns Are Quiet Here)
Fave movie: A Russian movie called Ofitsery (Officers)
Fave sport: Probably volleyball and pioneerball. Also love silks (the aerial ones - but what's the sport for them?).
Fave store: Dollarama (still).
Fave music: Russian Bard genre

What you can't stand: still, people who try to English-ise my name, and turn it into Eugenia or Jane or something of that sort.
What you plain dislike: popular things, if I don't see anything good in them
Who you admire: My mother and great-grandmother, JRRT, Jack London
What you most love to do: nothing.
Your self-confessed flaws: I exaggerate, I complain too much, I rant, I'm sometimes (read: often) hypocritical... I leave things half-finished.
What intrigues/fascinates you: mythologies, ancient history, etymology, languages, infinity and related things (time, space, universe, etc), the World Wars (the history, not... the other stuff ).
What scares you: University, and the prospect of studying for half my life.
Quotation to live by:

Life is but a story. Make sure your own story is worth telling.

There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want - so true!!

Additional comments: I am weird. That summs it up.
