About Me



You are the centre of the Universe.. wherever you go, what ever you do - you will never be closer to, or further away from - it's limits.

My Interests

reading... writing... making unusual facial expressions... making myself laugh... scratchcards... spinning on office chairs... playing my guitar... attempting to play my guitar... singing like Jeff... trying to sing like a black man... I love my girlfriend... she is perfect... I want to go swimming in the ocean... now if you please... Hawaii... strange enthusiastic men who play guitar like gods and sing castrato... travelling far and wide with no agenda and a certain someone by my side... cooking without a recipe or clue what I'm doing and making people eat it... listening to them thank me for their pain... missing someone so much it feels like my heart's been removed and put in a little box somewhere... finding the box... pizza... thai food... tea of all kinds... losing at Stratego... oh.. and scrabble... I like scrabble... a lot.
