Unveiling the Layers: Delving into the World of ME

Getting to Know ME: Behind the Blog of Tom, CEO of Tuff Life studios 

Hello, everyone! My name's Tom, but if we ever get close, you can call me Teko. I often find it challenging to open up entirely when talking to people online, but today, through this blog, I’m inviting you to a little journey into my world.

My Academic Pursuits: Latin, French, English, Mathematics, Geography, Calligraphy, and Science – yeah, that's just a bit of what I delve into. Reading is also high up on my to-do list.

My Passions: Where do I start?

Video Games: Rocket League, Minecraft, Overwatch, BTD5, Brawl Stars, Side Swipe, FIFA 23, Among Us, Fortnite, Splatoon...just to name a few!
Board Games: I’m totally into Exploding Kittens, Uno, and Here to Slay.
Outdoor Activities: You'll find me kicking a football, playing tennis or badminton, splashing in the pool, or shooting hoops. Oh, and let's not forget my love for magnet balls and park outings!
Socializing: Catching up with friends is essential.
Creativity: Baking (everything from popcorn to 4-tier cakes!), playing the recorder and piano, yo-yo tricks (I've got some mad skills here), and dabbling in code and chess.
Chill Time: Though I don't watch much TV, I occasionally indulge, especially when learning something new.
What I’d Love to Dive Into: Given more free time, I’d love to throw some darts, play pool, rock climb, ice skate, or even kickstart a mini-business. Dream big, right?  Oh, and I'm a regular at the David Lloyd leisure center.I have an unquenchable penchant for savoring the frozen delight of crystalline, water-based confections – you might call it a love affair with ice. yes i eat ice 🧊💙 and im not the best at drawing lol, im a beast at rock, paper, scissors, and tic, tac toe, i like to build forts and do shadow puppets,
i can make mad camp fires, and like to drink air up.

A Peek into My Day: My day starts bright and early at 6 am (London time). By 7 am, I'm prepping for the day, and from 7-8 am, it’s breakfast and baking time. Work starts at 9 am, but I might squeeze in a chat or two with some of you! Lunch is a flexible affair between 12-2 pm (mostly because I'm so engrossed in what I do that I sometimes skip it). By 3 pm, work's wrapped up, and I hop back here to check in on all of you.

The Traveler in Me: I’ve brought  my passport in 14 countries! From the beautiful canals of Venice to the romantic streets of Paris, from skiing in Chamonix to savoring the world’s best cheesecake in San Sebastián, each destination has etched a memory. USA for its iconic iced green tea lemonade, Switzerland for decadent chocolates, Belgium for its mouth-watering waffles, and camping. and the list goes on. The flexibility of homeschooling has truly broadened my horizons.

And there you have it—a small window into my world. Now, it's your turn. Drop a comment, share a memory, or just say hi. I’d love to hear from you! <also chat gpt did some of this>
