If you blow that whistle one more time, you're out.

About Me



I don't sleep when I should and like blogs, except my own. If I could channel my worrying into something productive I would be a genius/a creative mastermind/like my thighs more. I'm good at reading books, being ginger, and fiddling with things. I'm not so good at rationality, estimating the amount of room to leave for the milk when making a cup of tea, and talking to people I don't know. I'm not that basic, I swear.

My Interests

cherry carmex, deadline adventuring, freckles, post-it notes, Jenny Lewis, Latitude Leeds, Mario Kart Wii and the consequent failure of my degree.

I'd like to meet:
