EAO MARiA-GReece

ok, this is my life story...

My name is Maria Dimoula, I'm the youngest member of my family... I have 3 older brothers,
Christos (28) Dimitris (25) and Nikos (24)... and I'm 22 as u may already know...
I was born in Larisa but grew up with my grandma in Rethimno, a town in Crete island (my mother
 is from there). I started school in Crete but had to move to Larisa later at the age of 8...
I finished high school in Larisa and had to choose a college... My parents forced me to economy
studies, i wanted to be a doctor for animals (my parents never liked it...) I found economy
studies BORING so i quit after a few months... Now i work as a shopping assistant at a clothes
store. I also draw graphics that we print in the clothes that we sell... the money is good
and i like the job so I think i'm ok... for now...

Me and my brother Dimitris

Me with my brother's kid

about my gaming career...
It was the year 1999 when my brother Christos bought a PlayStation... his 1st game was Gran turismo
Christos and dimitris were playing 1vs1 so me and Nik were left outside of the ps world...
A few months later Christos bought V-rally 2, a multi tap and a 3rd gamepad... So the 3 boys of the family 
left me playing alone, and I didn't like it... so I decided to play with them... so we got 1 more pad
I was the only driver to play from analog stick and soon the advantage of the analog stick
made me the the best v-rally driver!!! When you're good at something u start loving it...
That's what happened... a few months later I started a gran turismo career (a totally different game) gran turismo got me...
I played all the series in ps 1 and 2... last December I had to buy a computer (for my job mostly)
so I bought a laptop... I wanted a good game to play online, a car game of course, 
so after rejecting a few games that my brothers told me (like counter strike, world of warcraft,
unreal etc) I got Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2... I quickly finished single player mode and
started racing online... my 1st online race was in EAO class 2 server where I was playing against EAO oldgoat
(he actually lapped me in that race...) now I'm a much better driver. I've got to say...

I passed the EAO time trials a few months ago and now I'm in the group of "good drivers"... The next games that I played online
were NFS underground and trackmania... I also bought test drive unlimited, but I can't run it on my laptop...

about my real-life racing...
At the age of 19 I won a local rally event... I qualified for the big event (tour of Greece)
but I screwed up, finishing somewhere between 97-100+ I don't even remember my place...
Now i'm member of 'Tzoras Kart Racing" team, we do kart racing inside Larisa and a few
other towns nearby... We race against other teams... It's a lot of fun!!! My real life car is a VW golf GT... 
I had a Golf FSI but VW let me change it with the new Golf GT for only 11.000 Euro...
Its color is red... red is my favorite color... it's also the color of my favorite cars, FERRARIS
I dream of driving a real Ferrari... The best car I have ever driven is a Chevrolet Corvette C06
I wish I could afford a car like that... but it's too expensive to buy and even more expensive to keep!!!
My "baby" Golf is all I have now but I love it!!!

      

my pets...
I love animals, as u may already know...
I have 2 dogs, 3 cats, a few birds and a rabbit...
No need to say that I keep all of them in the house and not outside...
I had 1 more cat but it died... I still love it though, I'll never forget it...
the cat's name was sara... I miss you Sara...

        

about my personality...
ok, you already know that I like cars, video games and animals...
I also like swimming (I grew up in Crete's beaches) and travelling, I have visited many of the Greek islands...
My friends like night clubbing, I don't really like it, but I always have fun when I go with them (3-4 times a month)

Me and some friends in Crete

The 1st thing people notice about me is my accent... I can't speak fast, so i sound like a retard!!! 
But those who know me deep inside know that I'm not what I look like... I have many friends
here, and in Crete... I like making fun... I say whatever comes in my mind to make the others laugh...

I like to see people being happy... my friends say that I'm very funny... and if you get to know me, you'll see that I can make u laugh...

I don't have any boyfriend at the moment, I'm not married, I have no kids, I live with my parents, I work 5-7 hours per day (sunday's free!!!)...
