Matrix Merlin:

Hi. I'm an artist and aspiring writer with a love of all things Egyptian including the music with such artists as Amr Diab, Saad, Hakim, Mohamed Mounir, Fouzy and Khalil. My other tastes in music vary from trance to goth. I love Egyptians as I find Egypt to be an exciting place full of beauty and splendour and the boys are always friendly and pleased to have people from the west as a friend.Music: Trance suits my lighter moods and goth suits my darker moods. Classical and ambeince for when I need to chill out and the Stranglers for when I'm somewhere in between.TV: HEROEs is a great series with great characters and is a fantastic concept. Going back in time I love the BBC series ROME. It is brilliant.Books: I'm working on my own as I have been for some years. It is a pain trying to get published. Otherwise I enjoy reading Lord of the Rings. I don't have much time to write these days as I'm working on some drawings of Egyptians.Sports: I love Gymnastics as it is the perfect body stamina performance sport and I enjoy the skills involved in the diving. I watch fotball usuaully when there is a major tournament such as the World or European cups. I acquired the nick name of Abu Tariqa when in Egypt. I do keepfit including punching bag, weighttraining and aerobics on the stationary bike.Interests: My interests are Holidays in Egypt spending a lot of time in Luxor and Aswan and the occassional few days in Cairo. I also do art being particulary good at portraits finding inspiration in friends from Luxor and Aswan.Movies: Action movies. I love the Mummy movies, Hellboy and Pans Labyrinth is a great film. I also love the Matrix Trilogy, Blade Trilogy, The Crow and the latest line of Comic Book Hero films. Another recomendation is "300" about the spartans. It is full of action and blood and gore.BestFeatures: My pecs, I have always kept these good and I'm told I've got a nice bum. hose are my best physical features. I have a good personality and try to get on with anyone no matter.Dreams: I dream of getting my books publihed and making a mint from this. I would like to see them turned into films but I dread some of the sort of merchandise they would bring out as I think putting images that mean a lot to me on lunchboxes to be a bit silly and belittles my creations.
