If I would have watched the 1994 Stargate movie as a teenager, I probably would have had a huge crush on the character Daniel Jackson. Daniel Jackson from Stargate (1994) and Agent Mulder from X-Files are like my Nerd dream guys lol

My Master‘s degree studies are going much better than my Bachelor‘s degree studies. Most of my grades are okay and in a range that is considered alright. But you can be damn sure that I aced every single paleontology/dinosaur related subject.

[1] One time when I was a kid I was supposed to do my homework and my mom watched me. But she fell asleep and I seized the opportunity to sneak to the computer and start the Lion King Animated Story Book game. I recorded the whole game with my cassette tape so that I could listen to it later.

People will never realize what a pain it was to install Sims on those old Windows XP laptops. And especially letting it run at a normal frame rate.
