About Me


The name is Fudge. First name: Fudge. Second name: Cake.
I am a 21-year-old female guinea pig, which is pretty good going considering the average life expectancy for my species is around four to five years. Lots of fellow guinea pigs ask me, "What the devil is your anti-aging secret, Fudge?"
But all I can tell them is a combination of my passion for fashion, not living my life looking out between the bars of a cage and choosing to eat something other than plants to keep me alive! :) (I have a bit of a sweet tooth for the occasional Mars bar... OK daily Mars bar. Whoops!)
I am currently an undergraduate student at Cardiff University. My degree is in Journalism, Film and Media because one day I hope to become a journalist, as I love nothing more than getting my hefty molars into a good story! Chomp chomp chomp.
It would also be a pretty big achievement for me to become the first British guinea pig journalist and my dream, as shallow as some people deem it to be, is to someday become a 3am girl for the Daily Mirror showbiz column. As guinea pigs are natural born gossips, haven’t you ever heard how much they whistle, purr and rumble? So I’d be perfect for the job, you can imagine me whizzing around with my little shorthand notebook in paw now, can’t you? :)
However, I still work in Dorothy Perkins part-time around my titchy timetable and over the weekends, too. So you can't accuse me of being a complete lazy bones! Although, in all honesty, the Fudge folks are minted back in my homeland of Guinea and wire me handouts left, right and centre so I don't really, really, really desperately need extra cash. What with my student loan and everything as well. It's just I love the jammy staff discount! :)
My pet hate is when boffins describe people participating in scientific experimentation as being 'guinea pigs' because I find this disrespectful to my culture. Why should guinea pig's lives everywhere be threatened to try out whether the latest make up products are safe for human consumption? We have feelings and fun-packed lives to live too, you know! Without being slaughtered for the sake of a new foundation to hit the shops!

Music:

My music taste is as mish-mashed as Paris Hilton's hair extensions in all honesty! I'm really loving New Rave stuff at the moment, so the Klaxons are playing on a loop. But I am an extremely musically versatile creature, opening my little fudge-coloured ears to anything ranging from The Smiths to the mainstream musical morsels that Radio 1 churn out all day long.

Movies:

A sucker for chick flicks, I'm afraid. Anything with a highly predictable plot and saccharine storyline and I'm sold! Oh, how Hollywood has rotted away the imaginations of my generation!

Television:

In the words of Razorlight's Johnny Borrell:
"I light a cigarette
'Cause I can't get no sleep
There's nothing on the TV nothing on the radio
That means that much to me

All my life
Watching America
All my life"

I am a MASSIVE fan of Friends, The Simpsons and Prison Break. So give me cheap U.S comedy re-runs a plenty and I'm a happy bunny... well guinea pig actually ;)
