About Me

I'm a 22 year old graphic designer so basically spend my days drawing and colouring in. I once formed a band called 'Balls Deep' we played one gig and split before we got big, thus keeping it real and not selling out to the man. I would say I was a very easy going person, my sense of humour is silly and bizarre and sometimes just plan wrong. The plan - To get enough cash together and see the world.

My Interests

Drawing or anything to do with design, watching live bands, Golf (i know i can't explain this one), binge drinking x 2, driving my mini (fixing it most of the time though), design stuff, reading occassionally. Watching Bill Bailey he's one funny dude, but like most people drinking myself into a small coma on the weekends.

I'd like to meet:

Movies:

Amongst my collection of DVD's there's alot of B movie s*** I just went throught this faze of thinking they were really cool, but then it hits you about half way through watching one of these films, that they are just pure w***. So here's some I enjoyed Devil's Advocate, Grand theft Auto, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Donnie Darko, Anchorman or anything with Will Ferrell. Jaws, Duel, True Romance, Terminator 2, Back to the Future, Home Alone (just the first one though), Evil Dead, Waynes World 1 & 2, American Graffiti, Human Traffic, As Good as it Gets, Mars Attacks, Kill Bill, 10 Things I Hate About You, Ghost World, Punch Drunk Love, Mean Girls, Napoleon Dynamite, Hellboy, Cabin Fever, Shaun of the Dead, Ghostbusters, oh and the Lord of the Rings films were cool.

Television:

Spaced, Peep Show, Arrested Development, Simpsons, Family Guy, Friends, The Adam & Joe Show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Desperate house wives, The Mighty Boosh, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Black Books.

Books:

I read more design books then anything.
