About Me

“There's no reality except the one contained within us. That's why so many people live an unreal life. They take images outside them for reality and never allow the world within them to assert itself.”What can I say that wouldn't incriminate me...hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...well...er....my name is Natasha and i'm also....a budding psychopath HAHA! just kidding.....ahem....had you going there eh? He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you...and says "I am the soul of Madame Batty-Natty mwahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa".I love to paint but am going to study medecine at Leeds university. However, I 'ave been somewhat knackered by the endless shennanigans of the examination system so am planning to take a gap year first and go to Thailand to teach in an orphanage near Pattaya. I think this will be an eye opener as I am from a relatively fortunate background and have never known real deprivation. It has always been my wish to experience life fully, in its good and bad aspects and to meet people from all different walks of life - hence career choice. I do not fear sadness or pain, as much as I fear not feeling. I do not fear openly angry or dysfunctional people, as much as I fear outwardly friendly people who have little or no self-knowledge. I suppose I fear people who are afraid!...and yes I do fear myself sometimes....who wouldn't! I am whoever you think I am. I want to be a forensic psychiatrist so do alot of work as an auxiliary nurse - mostly in psychiatric wards- to gain experience. I have always felt a strong need to help those made vulnerable by mental illness and it is one of the most challenging yet rewarding things I have ever done. I am a bit obsessed with music (everything from kate bush to hardcore trance :P), philosophy, art, the soul and the mind. So I'm a pretentious arty wee bam. There we go. Schpiel over. Which Breakfast Club Character are you?
You're Claire Standish! A "princess" with a dysfunctional family. You're known to: shop,being center of attention, and playing miss popularity. But really though you hate it... with john Bender as a boyfriend, I'm sure people will start to get the hint.
