Ahhhh!!! Snakes!!!!

About Me

Ahhhh, sunny old England. Yes, where my heart dwells. Everyday I wake up to find myself at bliss with the world... Yet, my thirst for adventures and excitements will always take me to crazy places and realm of madness. Alas! Such is my relation with the world of matter. Sorry, Yoda! I guess I will never be a Jedi. : (
I was born in Fazakley Hospital in Liverpool. Spent the first 8 years of my life in Hong Kong before returning in Liverpool for the 10 years thats followed.
Right now I am reading Civil Engineering at University of Liverpool. I think a career in construction would be very very exciting and rewarding. Plus it pays quite well which is a bonus. :p

Take the quiz:
What South Park Character Are You?

Kenny McCormick
Your a needy poor little person. Very kind hearted but at the same time can be very devious and cruel. It really just depends on your mood.
Take the quiz:
Which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are You?

Donatello
You've been described as 'the brains' of your family or group of friends. You're the natural born, 'Mr. Fixit'. You're also considered the most reserved, preoccupied with your own little thoughts and ideas. But that doesn't mean you don't hang with your family and friends! But, you still find it easy to get lost in your own thoughts...daydreaming often. You'd rather talk things out than fight. You long for a day when there's nothing but peace in the world, and when you can finally rest with your own thoughts. Violence is something the world could completely live without. One of your labels may be, 'true to blue friend'. You're strong at heart and powerful at mind.

My Interests



I love clubbing to a heavy underground electronic beat. Love Psytrance, Breakbeats, Tribal House, Trip-Hop, Techno and maybe a little DnB if I've had enough sleep the night before.Also go into fire spinning from the raving scene. Have been doing fire poi since Summer of 2005 and have start on fire staff Summer of 2006. Nothing feels like a burn with some quality Psy and Breaks!I was into a little alternative rock back when I was young but I am more mellowed out in that department now.Also like reading, cycling and general fitness.

I'd like to meet:

Ronald McDonald! I heard he is cool! He spends all day long making burgers but that nasty burger thief steals them! I bet if I am extra nice to him, he will give me some meat burgers to munch on!
