Stupid facts
about Ivki

Well, this page should be some
kind of autobiography, but I really don't know why should anybody
read this (except my future bosses... maybe...). OK, I'll write
here some stupidities so you can read it (I wouldn't recommend
that, though)
By the way, how to write
an autobiography???
For the millionth time, my
name is Ivana Bosnić and my nickname is Ivki. I was born on
March, 4th, 1983. in Zadar, Croatia. I have four elder, great brothers whose
names are Ivan, Leo, Sven & Mladen. Ivan is the eldest, he works (together
with Leo) on a place where I would like to work - The
Faculty of Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, in a Laboratory for Systems and
Signals (although it doesn't have to be that department; math
department would be nice, too). Sven has finished Faculty of
Architecture and Theology. Mladen plays lots of instruments and his one and
only love is music.
Well, I thought this is an
autobiography....

I didn't go to
kindergarten like a kid... Mum and brothers have taken care of me
(but I was a good kid, too). I attended primary school OŠ
'Stanovi' and spent there strange eight years. Some teachers were
so bad (but some were very good)...
I finally finished that stage of
education and now I'm very happy 'cause I go to best
secondary school in the whole world!!! I attend
Grammar school Franjo Petrić in Zadar (I'm in the second grade
now...) and I must tell you: there's great!!! Friends in my class
(and in whole school, too) are just great, teachers are also
great (can you believe me???)... Last school year (first in this
school) finished so quick that I can't believe it... I hope this
one will, too...

What after finished
primary school??? I hope I'll go to Faculty of Electrical
Engineering & Computer Science. I'm just a bit afraid of physics,
'cause, although I like it very much, and it's one of my
favourite subjects (with math and computers), sometimes I have
big problems with it... And that faculty is full of physics...
What next? I'll be very happy if I
could stay on that faculty like some kind of scientist. If not,
I'd like to work in a place with more than couple computers, to
administrate them. Maybe even programming something (although I
know some comp. languages, programming isn't my real love).
But what now? Everything
here is talking about past or future... the school has started, I
do something on my computer all the time, I learn more about
Turbo Pascal, Visual Basic 5.0 and & C++, clean my computer
from shareware garbage (don't misunderstand me, I have nothing
against shareware, but I'd prefer if it would be with less
bugs...). I write lots of e-mails, play The Dig, I was on the
Summer math school in Split. There was just GREAT!!! I met a lot
of fun, nice kids, my new friends... I was in Zagreb, too, on
VIII. Mathematical meeting (preparations for Mathematical
Olympiad; calm down, I'm not in the Olympic group :-)) You probably ask yourself how did I
get there; well, I was on the Croatian Math competition and I won
the first award...It
was great there in Zagreb, we learned a lot and had a lot of
fun...
Otherwise, I care much
more about computers than about math. Like I already said, I like
administrating computers, programming (although it's not my
favorite), even experimenting... I like playing games, of course.
My favorites are: Dune II, XCom2: Terror From The Deep, Warcraft
II, Age Of Empires, The Dig, Warlords II... You see that I like
strategies a lot. I also like adventures with hand-made graphics
(Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis) and arcade car races...
I also like a game that lots of
people ignore (even don't know what's that)... I like
Tetris!!! I like all variations of this great game,
but my dearest is original Tetris (for good, old DOS) by A.
Pajitnov & V. Gerasinov. Here you can download it - 15 Kb only - (together with my
high scores) to try it! If you beat my record send me a mail! I'd like to meet that person (by the way, I passed the highest
counter spot and started from minus!!!)!
I love reading, too; My favorites are
Agatha Christie's crime books and SF (science facts more than
science fiction), but very often I also read books about
computers from the local library...
It's enough about me,
isn't it? (did anybody read all this???)
