ME, MYSELF AND I

After the last months that I had these pages up and some friends stopping by it I got a handful of suggestions what to add and whatelse might be interesting to know. So I hope I cured the curiosity by doing it this way now.

Name: Patrick Heyden Nick: Yimkang Birthdate: February 5th, but after all old enough to be responsible for the stuff I am putting up here. Hometown: Hamburg, Germany and living here for almost a quarter of a century. Occupation: More or less economics student at the Federal Armed Forces University Hamburg Interests: American Football, Scuba diving, Travelling. Other information: I am quite an extreme person, anything that pushes the adrenaline gets me going. I always try finding and surpassing my limits. That's the kind of enjoyment I get out of life, and I believe that's what life should be about: Go out and have fun!

Plans and Goals

I am still working on my university graduation. The last months I wrote all my finals and hopefully passed them all as well. Within the coming weeks I will start working on my diploma. I think there is nothing really comparable to this within other countries, except maybe a master thesis, so I guess now all of you can figure out how much time this will take away from me. But at least the end is in sight and I am more able to decide which time I want to work and which I don't.
I also have gotten the confirmation where I will be going after graduation. Unfortunately I will be leaving Hamburg, which has been my hometown and favorite town within Germany for decades. The next stop for me will be Aurich, a small town close to the Nothern Sea and the Netherlands. I already spent some time there before to do my service and as it looks right now it will be my new home for at least three years. Luckily for me, I won't be going there until April '97 and until then I really will enjoy my time in Hamburg.
My private plans are still somewhere in the stars and I guess I have to wait some time before I can make some further plans, but until the end of this year I hope to be going to Thailand once again to see some parts I haven't seen the last time. If you have any suggestions what would be worth seeing, drop me a line.
Hey, and after all I hope to be able to stay the way I am now, spontaneous, funny and always open for new experiments and experiences.
I guess all is said. Hope to be seeing you soon on #siam. :-)

DEDICATIONS AND CREDITS

First of all I want to thank PuTT, who made these pages possible.

Second: After not mentioning them before, and my hostbrother being really mad at me for it, I want to thank my hostfamily in the US for what they have done. I think I wouldn't be the way I am without them.

Third: Respect to everyone who helped me within the last couple of years making my life so pleasurous and enjoyable. There is no need to say any names, you know who you are!

Fourth: Thanks to all the people who have made my life miserable and caused me so much trouble. You always reminded me of what I didn't want to be or turn into.

Fifth: Thanks to all the people, that have been good friends since we met. This goes out to Paul, Andy, and all the other people whose names would fill pages. I am looking forward to seeing all of you again - hopefully soon.

Sixth: Actually I am done, if it wouldn't be for a special request by a friend of mine. I told you I would put this in the next time. :-)
