My Interests

Well, i like to sleep, i like good food and drink, i like having good friends who know me inside out, i like talking all night, i like working with horses cos they don't answer back, i like the countryside and green-ness. I like snowboarding, and travelling, and combining the two. I would one day like to learn to surf and be able to realise my dream of being a true bum and surfing all summer and boarding all winter. I have faith. It will happen.

I'd like to meet:

adopt your own virtual pet!

Music:

I love music, i couldn't live without it. I'll listen to pretty much anything and everything. I like: panic! at the disco, rocky votolato, northstar, sufjan stevens, and then i turned seven, fall out boy, imogen heap, frou frou, kubb, the spill canvas, jack johnson, donovan frankenreiter, g. love, kt tunstall and i love turin brakes. Future boy, what an awesome song. I like to rave to a bit of drum n bass, trance, hard house. I'll dance to anything, except cheese. Hate cheese......

Movies:

Like music, i'll give any film a try, and make my decision about it after its over. My most favourite film of all time is Fight Club, pure masterpiece, best adaptation of a book, by far. I also like 28 Days Later, a truely awesome british film. Pulp Fiction also features for its cult greatness, and genius casting. That is the top 3. I also love Black Beauty, gets me every time.

Television:

The O. C all the way baby! Thats the only thing i will make a specific effort to watch every sunday. Also a bit into Big Brother, i just can't help it.

Books:

If i find an author i like, i'll read everything they ever wrote. Chuck Palahniuk is a genius and has the most awesome writing style, author of Fight Club. James Frey is also amazing, both his books you won't be able to put down, i guarentee it, they just wrap you up in them and its all so vivid. Louis De Bernieres had a good day when he wrote Captain Corelli, which is fantastic and i cannot fault Alex Garland either.

Heroes:

My dad is a legend. If i grow up with the same moral values and outlooks on life, i will be very happy. That is about it really. Sept for Soph, she's a bit of a heroine, for putting up with me for so long! give that girl a medal!
