I am here for Friends

About Me

Hey,I'm a 22 year old from Thornbury, currently attending La Trobe Uni doing an Arts course. Mainly interested in History and Archaeology as majors.Nutcase or genius? The two have never been mutually exclusive or terms I'd self apply.If you're here you already know more about me than would be worth me recounting here. I guess this page is a fairly self-indulgent attempt at 'getting hip with the kids' (i'm looking at you Corryn and Alison =P).I also have a band, The Pale Fires, check them out on my friends list.And I have a cat.Called Merlin.And he's the bestest ever.

My Interests

Writing, painting, roleplaying games (the kind with dice, not whips), cinema, reading and playing music.

I'd like to meet:

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Tool-10,000 Days

Music:



Movies:

Fight Club, Seven Samurai, Eraserhead, Lost Highway, Blue Velvet, the Matrix series, the Alien series, the Sleeper, Bringing it all back home and god, I'm a cinema studies student for christ's sake.

Television:

Deadwood, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Seinfeld, The Awful Truth, Futurama, Six Feet Underm and any other excuses to escape from reality.

Books:

To shorten this list, lets go with authors. Neil Gaman, Poppy Z. Brite, Monte Cook, Anne Rice, Richard Laymon (yes, I KNOW it's lame, that's the whole point), Frank Miller, Joseph Conrad, H. P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allen Poe. What is it with these infernal lists? Too much to type and not enough energy or attention to type it.

stupid sick body
