It was quite a long time that my family lived in the US. Before arriving here, I liked football (a.k.a. soccer)... I always have an English team as my most favorite... and I still would like to watch a match in its stadium.
Anyway, living in the US without watching American football seems to be impossible. There are tons of football matches on TV every weekend in a football season (around September-January).
So, admittedly, I have been brainwashed with this American culture already... from minimal interest about it to becoming a big fan of it....
So, I went to some NFL matches to watch a local team... I found it even more fun than just watching matches on TV.
Of course, as a student, I could not afford expensive seats close to the field. I bought tickets for seats way up up up up and up so high... as you may see;
If you have a chance to study aboard, I would suggest you to "do as the Romans do." To be a part of its culture, this opens my mind to touch into their real ways of life and understand more in ways they think. As important as it is, this can greatly entertain you and spice your life up!!
Lastly, I could not stand watching soccer no more... It was too boring to me... Even, in the final of European Champion League a year ago which my favorite team was playing, I fell asleep and snored like an old grumpy dog during the match almost for the entire match... :)
================================= Note: My life has been intertwined with works and many others. New responsibility has emerged, resulting less and less time for my ordinary life. Although, a love to write is still intact... But having less time is related to having less imagination.... Therefore, I could not come up with new writings for quite some times.
It might be a good time for me to leave this forum for moment.... Please take it as Mr. A.T. is having a sabbactatical leave or something like that....
As noted above, my love to write is still the same... and will not be changed. Sometimes somehow, I hope I could come back and give some thoughts in this blog once more.
Cheers, Mr. A.T. June 6th, 2008

Hello,
My pen-name in Pantip is amatuer translator. Actually, I'm a lousy translator with lame translation. My pen-name is somewhat misleading, I have no background in linguistics what-so-ever. Anyway I love to read, write and communicate with people...
Reading is my most favorite hobby. I read everything from shopping bags to articles in theoretical physics. I do research and teaching for my living. So, reading, writing, thinking and doing research works are my everyday routine.
I would like to define myself as a person who is accepting new ideas and adopting those into my way of life.
I believe in power of knowledge/education. I think every society can be a better society with knowledge. Ignorance can be dispelled by it. Humanity can live sustainably and harmoniously with each other along with its biosphere with understandings in the nature surrounding it.
Apart from my philosophical thoughts reflecting who I am, I can tell you something I like or love in particular;
I love dogs.... Particularly, labradore retrievers.... One day, I would like to spend my time and life with them as a big part of my family.
Zhuge Liang is my hero. With his wisdom and faithfulness, he led a tiny army to a mighty and formidable kingdom. He left his humble residence with a hope to come back. But, sadly, he had never returned and died far far away from home in a horse carriage in a battle field. If I could choose where I would, I would say where-ever my lovely wife was nearby.
I value happiness and my family as my first priority. My profession and my philosophy come in the second. Pursuit in wealth has never been in my desire.
I'm glad to be your friend, and look forward to seeing you around krub.
