OTHER: By my horoscope sign I am a Gemini. Which means also, that I'm open
minded, flexibel and ready for quick changes.I like to communicate with people
and change information. A big hobby of mine is foreign languages, the second one
is, since I have my own personal computer, computer skills. A big amount of job
has never scared me. I've often started from an empty place, but always got my
job and responsibilities done.
HOBBIES:
The
biggest hobby for a year already has been discovering HTML secrets. I started
from nowhere and now am able to write HTML code only with notepad. Because as I
discovered with time, for a good HTML there is a lot of things that can't be
done with the help of visual programs.
Most
of my experience in HTML comes from studies over the internet, but also books
like HTML 4 Bible by Bryan Pfaffenberger and Alexis D.Gutzmann (in english).
But
my studies are far from the end and an unendless row of possibilities to create
and try out somethoing new.
