Keep your expectations as low as possible, your hopes as high as possible and your goals slightly above average - that's the way to succeed

The path to Immortality begins with living a life worth remembering (Lee, 1970)
Me, Myself, and I
I'm your ordinary "dude" who's out there to find his own place in this big wide world. I'm a trainee sonographer (by careful career selection). I used to take x-rays. In my spare time (which I hate to waste) I keep myself busy with a very wide variety of stuff - mostly sports like taekwondo and basketball (amongst others) - anything that gets my adrenaline up and keeps me fit, while having fun (a must of course). I used to be quite the couch potato - but things have changed...for the better. Aside from this, I do what every other dude out there does: meets women. I try to visit my original home of Croatia every 2 years and while on my round-the-world trip, I visit other countries - mostly in Europe and sometimes in America. One thing I've learned in life: with enough perseverance, nothing's impossible.
Interests and Activities
Interests: Career advancement, women, self-improvement regimes, World Records. Activities: Playing pool, watching movies, go-karting, bowling, clubbing and meeting new people.
Sports
Taekwondo, basketball, going to the gym, running, free-running, swimming, kayaking, rock-climbing, skiing and bodysurfing.
Music
My super eclectic collection: New Age Rock like 3 Doors Down and Audioslave; Classic Rock like Queen, Guns N Roses, U2 and Bon Jovi; Pop like John Mayer and Madonna; Easy Listening like Chicago and Phil Collins; Blues and Soul like Gary Moore and Chris Rea; Chill Out like Christopher Cross and Coldplay and a whole bunch of Dance music and Soundtrack classics.
Favourite Films, TV Shows and Cartoons
Movies: Again - a wide range - Dramas like Green Mile and Forest Gump (one of my favourites), Action movies like Terminator trilogy, Diehard trilogy, Bad Boys, Predator, Martial Arts movies like all the Bruce Lee classics and the most recent Muay Thai Legend Tony Jaa, comedies like Happy Gilmore, Hot Shots, Ace Ventura, Borat and Scary Movie. I'm guilty of seeing some romantic comedies/chick flicks in the past too - not proud of that...but at least I'm secure enough to admit it! TV Shows: Married With Children - best TV show EVER!, Scrubs, Seinfeld, 24, Flash (sooo good when it was on aaages ago!), Dark Angel (ok so the plotline's mediocre but Jessica Alba is HOT!).
Cartoons (from a while back): Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Spiderman, Batman, Duck Tales, Tom and Jerry, Masters of the Universe
Favourite Book
The Game By Neil Strauss
My Fears and My Pet Hates/Annoyances
Fears: Torture + large ugly reptiles/arachnids and I guess bears, lions, tigers and sharks + large depths (e.g. swimming above several hundred metres or kilometres of sea/ocean). And lastly failure/mediocrity. Pet Hates: ALL Hypocrites, narrow-minded people, arrogant people, bible-bashers, people that are too "by the book" and governed by rules, bad drivers, thieves, overly naive people, feminists, racists, sexists and the overly discriminative, unfriendly and judgemental
Happiest When
I've got nothing to worry about, my life is in perfect order, my ego is in a healthy state and I'm on holiday somewhere by the sea, partying and reminiscing about old times with friends who mean the most to me and with no imposed sense of time or responsibility - this is something I have yet to experience, but worth living for.

  • My Poem On Today's Society (Inspired by the physical and spiritual journeys of Chris McCandless)

    TODAY’S SOCIETY & THE QUEST FOR ENLIGHTENEMENT

    By Roko Prkušić



    Here I am, a young man, living in today’s “modern” world;
    I feel like a free spirit trapped inside the stubborn, forceful, fearful, selfish, envious, greedy, Mediocre, judgemental, narrow-minded, conservative, hypocritical and seemingly-righteous bullshit Social constructs of today’s society.
    My soul, as if taken and poisoned by the devil himself, appears largely controlled and manipulated By the now-common ultimate societal values of materialism, commercialism, security and fame – All competing with religion.
    From many wars being fought for profit or reigning religion, to the escalating greed for money and Materialistic things –
    All being set-up over time to disorientate us from true meaning and life’s real zest.
    I hope that my thoughts, feelings and opinions are not situated in a global minority, because if this Is true, then we human beings as a race will be doomed to perish mentally and
    spiritually – We will all eventually become robots.
    Don’t get me wrong: I am neither pessimist nor extremist, neither anarchist nor troublemaker–
    But perhaps a very spiritual rebellious freedom-fighter, free-thinker and adventurer,
    In some ways like Chris McCandless (Alexander Supertramp) was.
    What has happened to us as people?
    Has everyone completely forgotten the meaning of life?
    I sometimes feel like I’m the only person who passionately and undeterringly seeks out
    Pure ruthless truth, blunt reality and the essential simple pleasures.
    Yet our somewhat-pathetic society currently seems to bathe itself in lies and fake things;
    From plastic surgery to recreational drugs, propaganda to celebrities and fame –
    And at any cost, often associated with superficiality, arrogance and narcissism at its worst –
    Anything to artificially boost our often easily-fractured egos, with some undeserved attention.
    What now feels like ages ago, as if in a previous life, when I was a little boy,
    Life appeared so very simple.
    A kid would do anything just to be able to “play” with friends;
    No responsibility, few consequences, no long-term worries or anxiety –
    When being able to wonder free in the streets of your block
    Felt like you had the entire world at your doorstep.
    When neighbourhood gangs were just groups of tough but essentially good harmless
    Street kids who were just looking for fun and adventure.
    Hours would fly by those summer days, without you even noticing, until nightfall came,
    Enhancing all the excitement and adventure even further.
    But is “this” what “adulthood” or “maturity” is meant to be like instead?
    A much saddened, doped and dampened spiritual reality?
    With the only way of achieving some degree of happiness & fulfilment
    Being temporary satisfaction and escape, with an expensive car, a gadget,
    Trendy clothes and shoes, alcohol, a cigarette, Joint, pill, gas, medication or injection?

  • The Uncannily Fitting, Intriguing, Success Line Of Life

    Well, it’s sure as hell been a while since I put up any blog posts. This one involves an ever-occurring issue in my life (and in others’ lives I’m sure) that seems to follow a somewhat mysterious, but definitely intriguing, fitting pattern.

    *I’m talking about life’s “Success Line”.*

    By the term “success line”, I mean a line on a graph of Success or Achievement versus Time, which follows trends or some kind of set pattern. Because incredibly often in life, whatever your goals, hobbies, passions or ambitions, they’re BOUND to follow this “success line” of a sort. Isn’t that interesting…………….

    - A more thorough explanation follows -

    So, ok, when I first realised this, or had somewhat of an idea that this is a form of “fate” or the “inevitable”, as much as I may hate those terms (as I’ve expressed my belief in that you’re the chooser of your own fate/destiny), it was TRUE, and that fact I had come to learn annoyed and frustrated me. But later on, with an increased understanding of this “phenomenon” in a sense, I, in some way, became rather relieved at how this could actually work IN MY FAVOUR, by making my life MORE, rather then less predictable.

    Because I had learned a pattern, I could exploit its predictiveness to my advantage. So, what followed initial disappointment and depression, was, with time, subsided with a great sense of relief and happiness, that life really CAN work to BENEFIT you, rather than harm you in any way possible, and that it doesn’t HAVE to be so frecken complicated, if you don’t let it become so.

    - What the fuck am I still on about? -

    Well, I guess it’s about time I truly explained what the hell I mean here.
    (Now, I must mention again how much it *SUCKS* that these bebo blogs can’t have attachments, coz a scanned graph would REALLY be useful right now!!)
    So what better way to start, then with a couple of examples? So let’s elaborate this with the most obvious and quite distinguishable of examples/areas of life:
    *Work/study* and *sport (and most other things)*.

    You start work. You’re new there. Everything and everyone appear awkward, until you realise it’s just you being awkward to everything and everyone. But it’s just your first day. You somewhat arrogantly think you’re gonna learn everything so quickly and easily, until you start to realise how much you have to learn to get “good” or at least “adequate” to perform your tasks “sufficiently well”.

    Your first week goes by. Then your first month. Time’s flying and you’re learning a SHITLOAD!! And having a blast doing it!! You have days when you do things well and you have days when you make bad mistakes. Your inconsistency angers you and so does your equipment - you become stressed at difficult times, but nonetheless, you eventually trudge on through. You tell yourself there’ll be days like these and that eventually things will work themselves out, because when it’s a good day, it really makes EVERYTHING sooo worthwhile!!

    You come to respect and then attain some essential attitudes to have in life. One being positivity and the other perseverance. All of a sudden, the things that seemed impossibly difficult a month ago, now seem almost too easy. Yet there are quite a few more “seemingly impossible” tasks to learn how to do well. But this doesn’t phase you so much anymore. Why? Because having already learned some things that seemed difficult, you now have the confidence boost to learn more without so much of a fear of not being able to learn or “failing”.

    Then after a while, you slow down your learning. You realise now, that you can see the light at the end of that very dark tunnel, that you’re approaching “required saturation point” for your line of work, and you realise that you “almost” know everything you need to. Eventually, after so many months (or years) come to pass, maybe you sit a final exam and then you

  • One of the BESTEST Movie Quotes EVER!!

    From "V for Vendetta":

    "Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous."

    Reply 1: Anyone who knows *anything* knows you're not 'a fag'. You're a regular sexual predator dude! And i mean to hug a man randomly next to the urinal? That's pretty 'geyy' and that's what I would've said to him. By the way bro, we've nothing against homosexuals around here lol.

    Reply 2: Argh i thought i deleted that blog comment! I was so drunk when i wrote that, sorry if i offended! But yeah nah - basically all i was saying is that to say kiwi drivers suck, and/or 'european' drivers are good applies the same mentality the govt applies when they ban fireworks for us all. The whole "one rule for all" mentality. Again - didn't really want to come off as abrasive as I did... sorry lol.
