999th Post - My "Introduction"

Hello Everyone!

Not long ago I noticed that when I joined, I had no "Introduction" Thread. So, as my 999th post, I'll have my introductionXD.


^
Hello Everyone!
My name is Joakim Nornes, and I live in South Korea. I am Norwegian of ethnicity, but I have lived in Korea almost all of my life. The reason why I live in Korea is because my father works here as the "Head" of the Drilling Equipment section for all Oil-Rig building projects that Seadrill have here on the island.

I have practiced TaeKwonDo since I was four years old, and finally after 10 years, I have received my 1st Poom Black Belt. In my free time I like to study, go skiing(winter), go scuba diving, practice TKD, play computer games, do sports and be with friendsXD

I hope that I will be able to contribute to this forum, and I'm sure I'll stay here for a long time and I hope for a warm welcome from all the forumers hereXD.
^

Well, there you have it, my Introduction to this forumXD.

I don't have too many photos of myself, and most of them are oldxD

You are 14 years old? I had the impression from previous posts that you were older...

Easy...I'm not judging you (;>) I got the impression you were older based the clear and well-organized way you've conveyed your thoughts in other posts I've read.

I'm 100% Norwegian of Blood, and my passport is Norwegian. However, I have a Korean "Alien & Citizen" Card.
As I have lived here for most of my life, I feel more that this is my home country than Norway... It's just the way it is.

Congrats on the 2nd degree black here at the forums. And I thought you were Korean, too. Didn't know you were a Viking.
