Why hello there I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Matt, and I'm a 16 year old living in New Zealand. About 2 months ago, I suddenly became interested in politics and activism. Since then, I've been aiming to do various things for the community, with the eventual goal of making a living out of that. You'll find out more about that sort of thing in my other posts, probably. Other than my political interest, I also enjoy football (soccer), skiing, kiteboarding, squash, history, and learning about other cultures. Pool is pretty cool too, as a hobby. I like writing about things (as long as those things interest me), and also creative writing. Reading is nice, but I don't get a lot of time for it with school etc, so I just stick to Time magazines mostly. I'm agnostic, although I do like the social and political ideals of the Baha'i faith. Anyway.... Just wanted to say that it's nice to be here You all seem like a nice bunch of people from what I've looked at so far. Cheers, Kiwi

Hey guys, thanks for the nice welcomes. The Netherlands are my 2nd favourite team Jenny . (Portugal is my 1st) you're welcome.. Cool, but to be honest I'm not a big fan of my countries team hahah I'm a big England fan so I was totally bummed out, they didn't qualify hahah.. The Dutch team did better as I'd expected, they still have problems in the defense though.. They had one (!) good defender this tournament, who went through some pretty bad stuff on a personal level.. The offense is good though with Van Nistelrooij, Van Persie and Kuyt..
