My first encounter with Spanish was in Brno, Czech Republic, in 2003. I met few Spanish students there. However, I didn't learn any Spanish words with them. In 2004, I travelled Madrid, Córdoba and Barça. That time, I learnt few words of Española. In 2005, I studied the language formally. I attended the language courses about half a year. I did learn vocabulary and grammar in these lessons.
However, I was lazy so I didn't continue studying hard. Even I like to learn Spanish, my laziness took control myself instead. If I studied the language hard, I could write Spanish now. 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008, there are four years totally! For any slow learner, s/he can absorb something. But the theory doesn't apply on lazy learner.
Really, I want to learn Spanish again. I want to read poems from Federico García Lorca and Pablo Neruda. Of course, my ultimate goal is to enjoy Don Quixote by Cervantes. I've to study Spanish again.

Acerca de Mí
¡Hola! My name is Andrés Costolani. Of course, this is not my real name. Who am I? Who cares?
I'm 27 years old now but I don't achieve anything. Even I got a degree, I don't have any achievement. Let introduce more about myself. I born in 1981 in China and moved to Hong Kong in 1989. Then I was growing and studying in Hong Kong.
During 2003-04, I'd a chance to visit the Czech Republic. I worked as a student intern in a software house as a Software Quality Assurance Engineer. That was a wonderful experience. I met many friends. Some of them we keep contact still. Besides my placement, I travelled around Europe. I went to Austria, Slovakia, England, Holland, Portugal, Spain, France, Switzerland, Hungary, Poland. So great! I enjoyed much during my travels. If possible, I want to revisit Europe again!
In 2005, I graduated and received a bachelor degree of Computing. Afterwards, I worked as a Software Engineer in a local operator, NovaComm, about one and half year. Then I moved to Sakai Group as a Senior Programmer for another year.
In September 2007, I resigned and had two-week non-paid holiday. I then joined Zurida as a Trainee of Financial Planner. However, my personal characteristics don't fit for the job of financial planning. I resigned again after three-week training.
Likely, I found a job immediately. That was a Marketing Executive at Ondra Solutions. In the beginning, I quite liked the job nature. It was a new area for me. I'm a technical man and I didn't explore much in the business. It was my first time. However, the boss, Mr. Villa, is a demanding man. He gave me lots of pressure and his ideas were changeable very fast. Thus, I couldn't survive under his management. I quitted before the Lunar New Year.
Very soon then I entered my current company, Gracias Kapital, as an IT Officer. Back to IT. I'm performing coding, production supports and other IT-related tasks. I feel more comfortable.
This is my brief introduction about myself.

La Fiesta de Otoño Mediado
He visto la danza de dragón de fuego en Pofulam. Fue execelent. Veniré temprano el año que viene para tomar más fotos. Y luego ido con mi amiga en Bahía Causeway donde fue el carnaval de linternas.
