During holidays with no work, maybe 40/50 hours+? During uni... 20+ >.< Don't take my example, me bad student!

4. Do you have any other activities (such as sports, music etc).
Used to play piano (stopped grades after 6th and just played for fun), read, play badminton. All of the above have taken a slight dip after SC2 came along

5. Would you consider quitting your job to become a progamer?
God I have no idea. Taking into account Dox's assumption of "you have the skill to do so", then my instinctive answer is **** YES. But then you take into account social stigma, lack of prospects in Australia, amount of time spent staring at a screen/sitting down, impact on future career if you don't sort out your current job first, personal laziness... not sure!

On the other hand if I wind up in America, can fix myself up to stay motivated in everything I do and work out a steady exercise routine then SEA REPRESENT!
