Nicola *lets all meet up in the year 2000*

ch-ch-ch-ch-check it out, whats it all about

About Me

i'm being told to write about me..um..a few facts about nicola that are obviously fascinating for the simple reason that they're about me: 1. i'm always right 2. i'm one of the founders of the starbucks crew that sits in starbucks making one drink last as long as possible so we can stay in and put our feet up 3. i have the best mates in the whole history of ever. even though i can't find one that is a good enough person to come to the hollyoaks charity match with me.

My Interests

watching tv, especially daytime tv, and especially daytime tv on ITV, used to be really into This Morning but now i've switched my loyalties to Loose Women. lately i'm also spending a lot of my time ignoring the revision/work i should be doing, and hunting down gigs that are on at the ritz so i can go before jemma does, was nearly there with the pipettes but then it got switched to the academy. i also spend too much time sat in starbucks (i both hate myself for choosing to spend money at the coffee equivalent of tesco-corporate, everywhere, etc, and love their coffee frappacinos too much to stop. i'm also really into films, going out, even if its to the garrett, is my favourite thing to do, and watching films is my second.

I'd like to meet:

erm. johnny depp. pharrell williams. seth from the oc. ryan giggs. preferably in the united changing room. just going to the united changing room would be fun in itself. there's a bit of a pattern emerging here...

Music:

my music taste is a bit schizophrenic, there's part of me that's into more indie music and going along to gigs in my Converse and deliberately not getting excited when the band comes on, bands like We Are Scientists (although I nearly lost my cool when Keith covered Boyz II Men) and The Long Blondes, and then there's the other side that's into some really embarrassing music, especially Boyz II Men, my personal favourites, the sort of music that people in the bury/bolton area can hear on tower fm, and for the unlucky ones that live somewhere a bit nicer, the sort of music that can be watched on magic.

Movies:

I love every kind of film except horror films, so I like musicals e.g. Moulin Rouge, The Bodyguard (which so is a musical), romance films like Romeo+Juliet, romantic comedies, especially if they have the ultimate duo of Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant in, action films, especially Die Hard and The Bourne Identity, most Quentin Tarentino films, especially Jackie Brown, gangster films, anything with johnny depp in, even the weirdness that is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Television:

Most American tv shows, especially comedies, except stupid Lost, so I like Scrubs, ER, love the O.C. and That 70's show. But my favourite program is definitely Hollyoaks, I get quite obsessive about being home for half 6 so I don't miss it.

Books:

i like to mix thoughtful grown up-style books with god-awful trashy autobiographies and books by people like jordan, i also pick books just cos of their covers.

My Blog

Tesco

I'm so mega stressed out right now, because yesterday I went all the way down to Tesco to see if there was a job, like I do every month, and I expected them to say no, like they do every month but noo...
