7 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Me

The folks over at Geary Interactive tagged me in a post to share 7 things about myself.  Here is how this little online tagging game is being played (from the Geary site):

“The game’s rules state that you: Share 7 facts about yourself in the post; Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs; Let them know they’ve been tagged.  You should also include the person who tagged you in the post.”

I’m actually happy I was tagged to share 7 things about myself because I realized that you folks probably don’t know much about me.  So here it goes:

1)  I was originally born in Melbourne, Australia, am from Georgian decent, live in the United States, and am fluent in Russian.

2)  I played soccer for around 12 years of my life and was actually pretty darn good at it.  While in college at UCSC I played for the school soccer team, racquetball team, ultimate team, and was a member of the chess club (you already know I love chess right?)

3)  I worked for my first startup right after college and hated it because I was doing mindless drone work and was often tasked with bringing coffee to executives and management, something I definitely did not sign up for.

4)  I wasn’t a good high school or community college student yet when I attended UCSC I graduated with honors and a dual degree in Business Management Economics and Psychology.

5) I absolutely love dogs, probably more than I should.  I’m the guy that wants to go to a dog shelter and take all the dogs home, I can always find homes for them later :)

6)  I’m a bit of a health nut.  I watch what I eat and workout on a regular basis.  That being said I love In & Out, I’m sure you can see my dilemma?

7)  My family lives in LA: mom, dad, 16 year old brother, and lovely dog.  I see them a couple times a year and usually spend all major holidays with them.

Hope you enjoyed these random 7 tidbits about me :)

Now here are the 7 people that I tag to share 7 random things about themselves:

  • loving dogs is more similar to hobby rather then passion.I love the fact that the author love the dog. Cheers
  • Cool, glad that i now know those 7 things!
  • i share similar quality with you in field of dog.I absolutely love dogs. I’m the guy that wants to go to a dog shelter and take all the dogs home and provides designer clothes.
  • I've got 2.5 dogs myself. I have 2 miniature schnauzers Alfred and Sadie (who are currently napping in my office), and my wife has a long haired chihuahua named Ruby. I'm impressed with the Russian fluency, I took 6 years of Spanish but it's almost all faded due to lack of use.

    Thanks for the tag, I am a wee bit late but It's up now http://is.gd/dJDn
  • I think being a health nut and loving In & Out is not a dilemma...It is HUMAN...and gives you the motivation to actually work it off after consuming it :)
  • hmmm, that is a good point. i'm also a fan of cookies and pretty much all types of snack food, tough to restrain myself :)
  • Good to get to know you a little more man! I went to Russia a few times during high school and wish I knew more of the language (what I once knew has faded). Melbourne? Does that mean you have a Aussie accent?
  • hey drew, i've still never been to russia. i wish i had the aussie accent, but i left when i was just a wee lad, im very bitter about not having it.
