About Me

Am completely in love with New York, everyday is an adventure and i love this city so much. About myself, well I have been a guest of this magical wonderland for the past two years and have had the most incredible time, and long may it continue. i am rather loud and verbal, I am probably that chap on the table dancing with a lit fag in one hand and swigging from a bottle with the other, life is to short to fuck around on useless things, i want to suck the marrow out of life (Dead Poets Code) and have the best time possible. I don't drink coffee, i take tea my dear, but in all honestly its probably a vodka and something. I constantly find new places to call my second home, I love to go out, drink, dance and be merry till the wee hours of the morning, and still somehow manage to put in a good show at work the next day. (though a chilled smoke watching old movies is grand to, don't get me wrong) I have a wonderful crowd of friends who are like-minded and life could not be better. I "smoke smoke", and drink and make apologies for either. I love to travel and do constantly, I love art, and continue to build my collection, i am very into Pop Art, go check out Banksy, he stuff is so different, it makes you smile with bewilderment http://www.banksy.co.uk.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

As i said, I would like to meet people who adore life. but really, anyone capable of forming a sentence is fine to, writing is grand and good for us, we shouldn't forget how the oldies did it. (BUT PLEASE DON'T ADD ME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO CHAT) have noticed a strange addiction to this website, and think we need to set up somesort of AA meeting, or something to that effect, one day we are all going to be sitting in a room saying "hi, i am henry, its been three days since i checked Myspace", the everyone will clap, before i take a long drag, so anyone that wants to discuss this future money spinning venture. Tall people to, have a height thing, sorry.
