Hello all,
Thought I'd make a nice introduction thread. Every forum I'm fan of deserves one of course.
My name is Alain, a 19 year-old male who was born and lives in the Netherlands (hup Holland!). If some of you are more curious, I live in the province Noord-Brabant.
My knowledge in regards to languages extends to the following: Dutch (fluent), English (fluent), German (reasonably fluent) French (reasonably fluent), Italian (currently learning), Turkish & Arabic.
My interests would be: music (classical), opera, programming, physics, mathematics, philosophy, role-play, Star Wars, Star Trek, and gaming. Gaming usually in the form of realm-first competition in MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, which I recently quit.
Currently, I'm studying IT application development. However, once I have received my diploma, I intend to focus my study on music, mainly directed toward opera (which is singing and acting, similar to a musical in a certain manner). At this very moment, I'm a bass-baritone with "extreme" reach to high notes, making me AFAIK full baritone, and partial tenor & bass. If you don't know what it is – bass is the lowest male voice, whereas baritone is "middle" (quotation marks because baritone lies both in the bass range as well as tenor), and the tenor highest; not counting the counter-tenor.
Having said that, I also love role-play. Back in 2008-2009 I used to own a role-play community for the game SW:JK3. The name was JK-RP. It was great fun and had roughly 94 members visiting daily at a certain point. However, due to complications, I was forced to shut it down after ~1.5 year.
As in regards to SW:TOR, I'm on Uthar Wynn EU, a Jedi Sage (Telekinesis & Balance) named Alistair.
