If we second guess our best intentions we make a mockery of our existence

About Me

Layout made by IVIike at CreateBlog.com .

Hi. I'm 25 years old and came to Sheffield almost 6 years ago to study Politics at University and somehow I'm still here. I love the city where I live and the people I encounter everyday, apart from those that drive me nuts, I could make a list but then it'd take too long. Life can be very frustrating and sometimes I find it hard to grasp it with both hands and live it to the full, however hard I try. Nice guys finish last. I just hope I don't. On a positive note, I'm an easy-going guy and I love my friends, family and band. These should be the best days of our lives. Enjoy.These guys rule so check em out!
