About Me

I'm nearly 27 and live in Aberystwyth having stayed there after uni where I did Physics. I'm currently gaining some experience in the retail sector as a deli assistant in Morrisons, having only just passed my Physics degree, largely due to real life getting in the way. I'm philosophical, analytical, excessively so sometimes. I'm a questioner, a reflecter, critical and try at all times to maintain a healthy level of cynicism, though I almost certainly take life far too seriously. I'm a bit anti-intellectual, probably too well-educated for my own good, dislike pretence and arrogance. Despite all this I am still surprisingly naive and optimistic about life and humanity. I'm interested in what's real, in what's authentic in life, not fake, an illusion or spectacle. So it may seem kind of ironic that I am attempting to present myself on a myspace page, but hey, life's full of contradictions. I've been described as shy, reserved, posh, very English, and prim, none of which I feel I am.
