Who Am I?
The picture shows me and my wonderful girlfriend, Pernilla. And yes - it is fake!
I was born February 1, 1974, at the hospital in Umeå and
was given the name Christoffer Holmlund. When my parents got married
later the same year my name changed to Christoffer Nilsson, which I'm known
as today.
I grew up in a
small town called Nordmaling where I went to
school until the age of 16.
I attended high school
in Umeå and studied science for three years.
During those years I had to go by bus between Nordmaling and Umeå
every day.
The summer after high school graduation I moved to Umeå to
Rågången 1A in Berghem, and at the end
of the summer I attended the University of
Umeå where I studied
computer science for four and a half year. One year after I had moved
to Umeå I had to move again - to a part of the town called
Mariehem where I lived in a two room flat on the ground floor. In September
1996 I moved to a smaller (one room) apartment on the second floor
on the same street.
30th of June 1997 I moved to a city called Sundsvall where I worked as an intern
for Telia ProSoft AB (Link for internal Use only) for 7 weeks.
After those seven weeks I wrote my masters thesis for 20 weeks, entitled
"Inquiry on the Merits of 3D Internet Browsers",
at the same company.
The thesis was finished in February 1998.
After finishing my thesis I started looking for a real
job, preferably in Stockholm, so now I am working for the Aeronautical
Research Institute of Sweden (FFA), with flight simulation
at FLSC, The Swedish Air Force Air Combat Simulation Center. FFA is located in Bromma
just outside of Stockholm, which by the way is the capital of Sweden. I live not too far
from my job in a suburb called Solna.
In my spare time I mostly listen to music such as
Guns N' Roses,
Megadeth,
Metallica, Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow, and so on. I also like to read, especially work by Edgar
Allan Poe, and I have written some
poems on my own, some of which can be
accessed over the web.
I'm also something of a movie freak and I watch movies as often as I get
the chance. When I get to like a movie I can see it like a billion
times. One of the greatest movies of all time is
Falling Down but there are loads of other great movies out there
such as: The Matrix,
True Romance, Pulp Fiction, The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast and so on...
As you can see I am a Disney freak...
Ok, so I spend a lot of time in front of a computer, and you might ask
what the hell I am doing? Well, I work a lot with graphics, preferably in
3D Studio,
and Adobe PhotoShop. I make mostly graphics to use on the web, which you can see
for example on my homepage or the
FLSC web page.
