My sense of humour has been shaped and influenced by many people and events in my life. I tend to enjoy darker humour which some may even find offensive. The way i see it is that we should use humour to lighten up the darker side of life.

When i was little i loved playing chess with my father. in 2nd-3rd grade my parents signed me up for chess club and i loved it while it lasted. At some point tough, i started prioritising other things over chess and began to only play every once in a while with family
-
at this point i knew how to ride a small bike with training wheels but i wanted to and was encouraged by family to learn how to ride a full size bike. So, once i had the bike i had my dad spot me -holding the seat from the back- and there i was riding, but once he let go, it wasn't too long before i crashed into a pine tree.

i started playing soccer and taking it more seriously, i was even getting pretty good at it

In greece, my dad and i loved to go hiking and exploring in nearby mountains in athens. We would often find beautiful olive trees and one time we had the idea of trying to build something. so we decided to try to built a spear and bow out of olive tree branches. it looked amazing and was perfect for decorations but not the most practical

I am a man with a somewhat unique taste in music for my age. This music taste has been developing for most of my life. i tend to prefer hard rock and some oldschool classics, as well as a very limited amount of modern alternative. And it all started out with american rap, which i now despise

After living in greece for a little over 10 years, my parents had an opportunity to move to the US, and they took it even though they knew it wouldn't be easy for the next few years

the first time i went to an ice skating rink was in the US, one of my first friends here was nice enough to take me with him

Soon after i moved to the US i joined a soccer team which traveled every now and then. after a couple of months playing with the team, we got invited to a tournametn in toronto, Canada. we took a bus there and used the opportunity for tourist purposes as well as other entertainment on the side; soccer being the main reason for the trip

while in canada for a soccer tournament, i visited niagra falls. this is a notable experience for me because ive never seen a waterfall of that magnitude up close before.

I often visit my home country, Ukraine. this is just one of the times where i went over summer break to visit family and friends and have a good time.

my friend took me to wisconsin dells with his family to a winter resort and we also did skiing on the side.

i started working out more, focussing on fitness, and lifting weights consistently

this phase didn't last very long as i wasn't too passionate about skating, but it was fun nevertheless.

8th grade was an amazing year now that i look back at it. i never really noticed how much it stood out from all the other years of school; i only realized after it was over.
