I like to sleep. A lot. That..s probably the most important thing, but somehow in a city like Brighton it just doesn..t work out that way. In Vancouver? Yeah, it's easily done.
When I..m awake I work, I read, I watch tv, and I work a couple of jobs that will eventually make my brain drip from my ears. Seriously.
I keep meaning to get back on a snowboard, but so far it's eluding me. Oh, and I trampoline lots, keep skinning my elbows and my knees trying to learn new somersaults, but there..s nothing like it. I like to ride around on my bmx and pretend I can do anything more than just ride it in a straight line and make it round corners safely, which I quite blatantly can..t...
I watch a rather unhealthy amount of Buffy. And Eddie Izzard... I like to go to bars and clubs and occasionally dance on the podium like a crazy person. I spend an ridiculous amount of time in coffee shops. But I mostly just want to hang out with my friends, in a bar, a club or snuggled up the sofa. Snuggling, yes, that..s definitely a hobby of mine. I really hate writing these things and right now it..s not even 10am, I can..t think straight and I really should be asleep...
Almost certainly not your band.
And not you if you tAlK lIkE tHiS.
I'm not just going to add you so that I can have a gajillion friends. Message me. Interest me. Then just maybe I'll add you back.
Oh, and it would have been these two. But I did. I'm the one with the hands you can see. Yep, the one that kills the concept... : )

My favourite film ever is Dead Poets Society. On a shallow level I like films like Bring It On, Gia, Girl Interrupted, Bound - you know the kind... I *loved* Love Actually. I think it might be because it's so very English, like me... Or possibly because I wish Alan Rickman and Emma Thompson were my aunt and uncle. But I'm A Cheerleader makes me smile every time. Beaches makes me cry. And The Princess Bride rocks my world, for so very many reasons. Anything I can watch over and over. I'm that kind of girl.
CSI. I can't get enough. Buffy's a long-term love. QI makes me laugh out loud altogether too often. It turns out Neighbours sucks since I stopped being a student. The O.C.
Anything by Margaret Atwood, L. M. Montgomery or Enid Blyton. I like reading Chalet School books over and over again, and I've been caught reading Malory Towers too many times to count. I also love Sebastian Faulks, and Jacqueline Wilson writes amazing books for children. I love Carol Ann Duffy for poetry, and Sarah Kane's drama is astounding. I like Sarah Waters, not because it's lesbian necessarily, but because of the way she writes. I read each new Harry Potter within a week of it coming out. Most of what I've read the last few years has been for school, and I am so very much enjoying that I can read for pleasure, with time to enjoy it. Reading is my comfort food.
