What you like is what you are

I never understood why people like to put online what they do and what they like. But after realising that I like to know this about others just as much as anyone else, I realized that it is only fair to return the courtesy. :)

I have always considered myself to be diverse. I want to know and understand everything, not committing, or as I prefer to call it: limit, myself to a single subject, activity or belief. Always doubting, considering, debating, weighing, changing. It's why I dislike the status quo so much. If someone tells me I should do one thing, I have the instictive reaction of doing the other. When I'm told to go left, my curiosity immediatly asks me: "OK, but if left is so important, then what's to the right?".

Some things have stuck troughout the years though.....
The most prominent of these is: The story.
The form can vary of course. When I was a child it was always books. I read hundreds of books. Fully concentrated and completely severed from the real world, I used to read everything I could get my hands on. I used to fall asleep reading far into the night. During the holidays I read 25 books in three weeks. These usually included the books my little sister had taken along as well. I prefered the detectives. The story of finding the answer to the mystery.

This theme finds it's way back later on. The books changed to TV and later to movies. Detectives stayed, but fantasy and epic stories joined them. However this also connected me to more drama like material, and comics, and action, and thriller, and horror. I want to know it all. Well. lets just name some of those favourites in arbitrary order.
