I faced the capability of the chance of choice at first time when I chose my parents alone in the orphanage the age of 5. Along with this another necessary choice was ahead of me: saw or water. Due to a birth defect my ribs grew inward. Between the options, avoiding operation, I chose swimming. I swam every day because of my sickness. Thus I became competitive swimmer. I pursued it for 9 years. I healed, but aspired deeper to the open water. As a competitive diver we competed in swimming pool and lakes with dolphin fins and transformed tanks. In lakes we did orientation diving. I was 4 times junior champion in Hungary.
When I was 17, I broke up with water. Study, friends and girls took over the leadership in my life. In high school it was incomprehenisble for me the absence of competition, therefore I gave a bigger space to my old passion: video games. The club where I used to go in my high school years encouraged my competitve attitude. Our favorite was Mario Kart so badly, we bet who’s gonna win. I was the best, and many years later nobody could defeat me neither in USA nor in Sweden. I was searching everything in this years which can add value to me. I realized the potential in japenese animes, techno and classical music. I loved everything which rejected the weekdays, and also all the theory which denied them in a sense of spiritual aspects. When I was laying in the coffin of Pharao Kheops, I realized no way I can build up such a high monument, but I felt my thoughts can easily reach that height. That’s why I picked philosophy besides history in the university. The sport reentered into my life when I was 21. I did Philippine kali, thai box over years, finally Mixed Martial Arts proved its worthy for my desire.
I acquired my english knowledge in the USA where I was lifeguard and swimming instructor throughout a summer. Two years after I returned I have graduated. In the past few years I faced Specnaz’s drill theory in Hungary: „The more you push an empty barrel under the water, the more it will jump out”. I had never have a problem with that. But it’s hard to suffer my only possibility is to work on the land with 2 degrees:).
In 2009 I have started doing water polo, and I was doing intellectual work for living. I know that fate often takes a man far from his heart and from his dreams. But since water can be found not just in my dreams, but in reality, I go back there. I have to…because I am not be able to do otherwise. My interest extends far beyond loving flora or fauna in the water. The water itself, me under it, the cooperative symbiosis with it gives me pleasure. It’s not a question that my next step is becoming instructor, and impart my knowledge.
