Name: Amir El-Refai
Homeland(s): Egypt and Germany (I'm both!)
Favourite Gloria songs: Oye mi canto, Can't stay away from you, Don't release
me
Hobbies:
I am studying communication sciences as a major and philosophy and social
sciences as a minor. I am planning to go into multimedia or language
research but I am not very sure yet.
As to my hobbies, I would
love to one day have my own yacht so I can travel over the sea and enjoy
this unique loneliness with my best friends. I love travelling in general
because it teaches you so much more about other people than just seeing it
on TV. The bad thing is that you spend a lot of money for it...lol.
Another dream of mine has already fulfilled as I wanted to go to Miami
for a long time. I love this city very much from what I have seen because
it is so electrifying and hot!!!
I also love to listen to
music a lot because music has touched me emotionally since I have been a
little child. It brings so many good memories and makes special moments
unforgettable. To me (as to many others I guess) it's the most touching
language there is. Sometimes I listen to music all day long while writing
or cleaning up.
Obviously the internet
has become one of my hobbies too...(an expensive one too..lol). It
opens more and more opportunities to daily life. Some years ago I wouldn't
have dreamed of having friends all over the world. To me this is the
most positive thing internet can bring to us!!!
Of course I love partying
a lot....it is so much fun to have fun and to enjoy dancing, laughing and
forgetting all-day problems.
How I became a Gloriafan:
I became a fan of Gloria in 1996 when I bought "Destiny". First I thought
the album was strange but after listening to it over and over it began to
capture me bit by bit!
I decided to go to the Evolution concert in Frankfurt...and what can I say...I
was in heaven!
I never thought I could become such a big admirer of somebody's music and
personality...but Gloria is something very special...she is definitely one
of the most impressive persons I have seen in my life!!!
