Swimming, Anime, Sci-Fi Novels, Comics, Cinema and Music

Since the age of 7, I've always been a huge fan of swimming to the point to really excited me to participate in school competitions where even I won a few medals but to me it was more about the experience and enjoyment of it rather than winning medals. Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movie introduced me to the character as well as the comics, been a huge comic nerd ever since, Been a music producer its no secret that I'd be a huge fan of both music and movies. I goto live shows and the cinema whenever the opportunity is presented to me,
