About Me

I'm 21, currently studying History, Politics and Maths at Stevenson and I'm hoping to go to Stirling Uni next year to study Scottish History and Archaeology. I'm pretty much obsessed with Scottish History especially the era of the Jacobite uprisings. Hopefully I can somehow make a career out of working in the field of research in this area. I'm also pretty into politics and I'm a dyed in the wool Nationalist. I spend most of my free time reading but I'm also fitba daft, more specifically Killie daft and go to every home game and as many away games as I can. I'm a member of the Tartan Army as well and I'm off to France in a few weeks for the game and I cannae wait! I love going to gigs especially when I get to travel to them. I'm obsessed with Sack Trick, they truly are the greatest band of all time. I can speak Spanish relatively well and I'm about to embark on learning Czech which should be interesting. I love Latin America, especially Mexico. One day I'll have a hot Mexican husband :) I'm currently madly in love with Rafael Marquez (Barcelona & Mexico) and Santiago Cabrera (Isaac in Heroes). What else... I love getting pissed and behaving like an idiot and just generally having a good time partying with my friends. I cannae dance to save my life but it doesnae stop me! I also love drinking juice (peach juice is my favourite), talking nonsense to anyone who'll listen (and some who won't), buying earrings on holiday, yellow stuff and blue stuff! Oh and I absolutely hate eels (I'm terrified of them, proper terrified) and I'm not particularly fond of celery, being bored, short people and ignorant people. Well, that's mair than plenty about me!
