Iva Tanackovic

About me:

O HAI. I'm Iva, I'm twenty-six year old, which has got to be refreshing amongst all these 109-year-olds common to this website. Then again, my cousin's wife says that I have a mind of a 92-year-old.

I may appear: lethargic, a non-hedonist and not appreciating a big enough number people and things for today's standards. But I'm actually: not easily amused, thinking of others as much as myself and educated to the point when I can determine if something's stupid or making sense.

I'm a certified new media designer, mostly focused on web and print. I also like to write. I'm proficient in XHTML, CSS, I know how to deal with PHP and mySQL; I can operate Adobe Photoshop, Fireworks, Illustrator, InDesign, Flash, Premiere, After Effects and Acrobat, as well as Sony DVD Architect. I speak Serbian/Croatian, English and Italian fluently, I understand Russian (reading and writing are a problem, though) and I know some German as well. Oh, yes, ancient Latin, too.

I like Lush. I worked for them until May 2009, when the local distributer went out of business. I'd work for them again any day and I am helping them with the efforts to bring Lush back to Serbia.

I like trees, nice food, Formula One, Jazz Jackrabbit games, writing too many poems and taking too many photos.

You cannot shock me by anything you say or do, I'd already been shocked for life on a couple of occasions; so don't bother.

In one certain sphere of my life, I've gone so skeptical that I discard every single thing told to me with a "meh".

If you got here through the website I run which is not about me: please, do not act like an idiot, I'm probably not what you think I am. I passed through those stages ages ago and I wish the same happens to you someday.

If you got here through one of my other social network profiles or my personal site, hi, nice to see you here. ^_^

If you have some Juicy Fruit Tropical'n Twist, don't show them to me, I'm currently obsessed. They're so damn good. Last year it was Kinder Pingui. Estonian fish sticks are amazing, too.

Other than this, I'm incredibly harmless for my age (verbal delicts aside), incredibly inexperienced in some things, incredibly experienced in others. If you're looking for someone wild, you're in the wrong place. I'm a geek, through an unusually creative one, without glasses/lens and definitely nowhere near overweight.
