I am here for Friends

About Me

I am currently in my third year of an Illustration degree at the Cambridge School of Art and really looking forward to being free from the world of education and paying some taxes. I also work part-time re-touching photos for a studio in Epping. Not my dream job but it can be fun. Born in Braintree in Essex and brought up in Great Dunmow I am a true Essex girl but not in every sense of the word! I hope to get myself a well paid job that i really enjoy after graduation (not asking much) and to move to somewhere a little more exciting than sleepy Dunmow, and Essex for that matter! I have a website with all my work coming soon www.carmenjohnson.co.uk so please check it out if you're interested in all things colourful and arty...or you would like to commission a piece of artwork!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I like meeting people who make me laugh and also, ideally have the same interest in the more bizarre side of comedy. At the moment I would like to meet everyone from The Mighty Boosh, the cast of Big Train and Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy. He too is very funny, but also very clever. I'd like to meet Paul Smith. I've read alot of articles about him and he seems to be a very nice chap along with being talented. No good being talented if you ain't nice!

Music:

I'm currently listening to Amy Winehouse's album which I really like but after seeing her live have concluded that she may be a lil bit mentally unstable! I like The Divine Comedy, Massive Attack, Moloko, Terri Walker, Radiohead, Basement Jaxx, Zero 7, Jill Scott, Manic Street Preachers, The Strokes, The Streets, David Bowie to name but a few... and Rob.

Television:

All things comedy. But the good stuff.

Books:

Really like Tony Parsons but not too good with reading regularly.
