About Me

My name is Elizabeth, most people call me Liz, a select few call me Bob, Lizbob, McLizla and so on, but Lizzy and Betty are forbidden as they make me seem 5 or 95 respectively. I have an older brother and a younger sister, both are pains in the arses but at least my brother doesnt steal my clothes. I hope. I am in my second term at Uni and seem to be doing ok considering I havent actually read anything yet. Surprising, as I'm doing English. Im the unmusical one out of my family, (unless you count the 3 chords I learnt on the guitar) but with the best music collection.
A few things I like:
Manchester
Lastfm.com, it is a mind reader
Germany
Chatting Denglisch and general shit
Music
Putting photos on myspace once in a while during periods of extreme procrastination
Good grammar
Making lists
Some things that I dislike/annoy me:
Picky people
Freezing my tits off in the bitter, bitter Manchester cold
Getting out of a warm shower
Insincere people
Having to get up from my massive warm bed when it's dark
Lard
Flora-have proper butter! like Anchor

My Interests

This is my life.

I'd like to meet:

My Grandad who died before I was born. Johnny Depp in his pirate get up and tell him how fit he is in eyeliner and dreads. Nnnnnnnnnnnn.

Music:

I like alphabetised things, it happens when I am bored.
Here is pretty much what is on my iTunes at the moment (barring embarassing stuff like Genesis and Kylie Minogue).
Your music taste is probably far more eclectic that mine, feel free to criticise. I am an arts student, I can take it.
