My Interests

my interests are music, sport, reading, writing, sarcasm and antisocialising, which is a particularly hard skill to acquire and an even harder one to get rid of.

Movies:

recently i have changed my opinion on films, and therefore have 3 worthy of note! These are schindlers list, batman begins and scarface, in no particular order.

Television:

eastenders reminds me of where i was born and of course, match of the day and its more relaxed sunday night spin off, match of the day two.

Books:

kafka, carroll, dahl and particularly the gospel of judas.

Heroes:

seeing as we are supposedly all equal, i find the concept of worshipping another person as a hero somewhat odd.
