About Me


I study art at Trent Uni and am well out of practice at writing stuff so this is a good excuse for me to type away.
In real life I try my hardest not to sound like an idiot when I talk, despite which I often ramble for ages occaisionally coming out with a pearl of wisdom or useless fact.
I am a natural show off and entertainer, my sense of humour is often dry and sarcastic but usually likable.
I sometimes get too loud when I'm excited and make a fool out of myself, but nobody has complained to my face so what I don't know doesn't hurt me.

My Interests

Art, Singing, Singstar, reading and learning lists and trivia, playing musical instruments (but not piano). driving, cooking japanese food, eating japanese food, amsterdam.
I used to work down Warsop with the skaters with mickleberry and in Mansfield with me old mate Kate (superwolf's darling sister).

I'd like to meet:
