[QUOTE="Zappo, post: 1906141, member: 633"] Huh... everyone seems to be defining their life as their job. I think of my life as the stuff I like to do, and a job as something that is needed to sustain my life. I'm finishing my 5-years degree in computer science at the university of venice. I'm planning on getting a job as a programmer, but I also have a few innovative ideas about low-cost videoconferencing which someone may find interesting. Like lots of young people in my country, I'll probably have to live with my parents for some more years, until I get a job that pays well. With the current economic situation, most entry jobs don't pay enough to rent a quasi-decent home and eat properly at the same time. Luckily, I get along with them very well. In my spare time, besides RPGs, I'm working on an Italian Ultima Online server based on Planescape. I'm the main technical and setting admin. We're getting near to the open beta now. We hope to become the main roleplaying-oriented free online game in Italy, though getting to the point of self-sustaining the server through donations would already be a victory. I'd love to actually get paid to write videogames, but I see little chance of that. I also play Warhammer 40k when I get a chance, and I'm getting pretty good at modding miniatures. Not so good at painting them, though. ;) [/QUOTE]
