Please allow me to dig into your personal life for starters. So you are now going back to study... you want to become a nurse ?
I’m not really sure what I want to do as a job for the rest of my life but I started on nursery school 5 years ago because my mom was a nurse and to me, it looked like something I wanted to become myself. Sadly my mom died so I couldn’t concentrate in school so I dropped out and found a job in the marketing business where I had an exam for Business school.


So you are currently finishing nursery school but do you have any idea about what you will be doing after you got that degree ?
I think that I will work as a nurse for some time of course and if I’m loving it I’m going to continue and maybe study further in that field.


With the studies you are about to take on again, you will probably have less time to train together with the team. Will this time-issue be a problem or not and how are you planning to fix it?
Well, school normally takes from 8h. until 15h. and we practise from 20h every Sunday till Thursday so it’s not going to be any problem at all and sometimes we do have the day off from practise, and it also has something to do with Ninnzan who needs to work every other week on evening/night shifts.


To play on such a high level as you do you simply need enough training. You have played a lot of hours behind your computer. Do your friends and family know about your gaming life and experiences ?
Most of my friends know about it, and think it’s cool but of course I have to turn them down a lot when they ask me to hang out with them so that’s annoying for them but I’m finding time for them now so everything is perfect.
My father and brother know about it aswell and it’s actually the same thing as before with my friends. But they are behind me 100% and like to hear about the different events I attend.


I think that every gamer faced that problem once in his life: The fact that their parents nagged about going to study and stop that nerdish thing called gaming. How did your parents react on the fact that you wanted to become and eventually became a so called pro-gamer?
Well my father didn’t have a problem with it as long as I didn’t drop my studies or get bad grades, due to the fact that I’m online a lot during the evenings and go to sleep after midnight. Although I know some young gamers under 18 where their parents forbade them to play because they didn’t do anything else like school, sports or work.


… and do you think that these parents where right to forbid that?
I think that under 18 where the parents still have the right to decide for their children they should indeed be able to do that and I think it is fair. If the child is a top player in a top team and can make money  out of it which they can save for later and can travel to foreign countries and get the experience and adventure, THEN it’s another story and I think most of the parents would accept that, a break from studying to try this life, and then go back to school afterwards.


Sorry if I get to personal but it would be nice if you could answer this last personal question: You are 25 now if I'm not mistaking and you have a boyfriend... do you have any plans to get married or to have children or something ?
Hehe, well my relationship isn’t that old so it’s pretty new and of course I want to get married and have children ONE DAY, but not at the moment nor in the next couple of years. Am I that old? :(


Of course you aren't that old but with all the things happening lately ... it seems some people can't start soon enough :)
Haha, well I know all about that since I’m the only one in my “friend-circle” and past school buddies who isn’t married or doesn’t have children.
