HAS STARTED HIS SECOND YEAR OF UNI TODAY

About Me

WHO I AM BY PEOPLE WHO KNOW ME.......................................................... ....................................... ............................................................ ....................................... "matt is like a big ball of sexual fun" NATHAN STUBBS...................................................... ....................................... ............................................................ ....................................... "With the guns possessing the power of the Norse-God Thor and his beard of protection, Matt makes a formiddable opponent in the boxing ring. Watch out for the Superman punch. Bitches!His latent sexual-power is merely quadrupled under the influence of at least 6 bottles of Snapple per day.A mobile phone is not an essential item for this man, although yes! he does own one, he does not feel the need to have it upon his person at all times and no doubt this makes him freer than the rest of us who panic and feel lost without our little lump of microchips to keep us in constant contact with the person we JUST spoke to.Matt gives it 100%." ANDREW FENTON...................................................... ....................................... ............................................................ ....................................... "Matt...truely a very good friend to the people he cares about, and polite to everyone he meets. He is loyal, generouse, an has a great scense of humour. Also, Matts shy, a light weight, and wears awesome sunglasses" DEBORAH JO TOMLIN TAYLOR...................................................... ....................................... ............................................................ ....................................... "This is me as you,if i were you descibing yourself:Here i am, a british citizen and i walk the walk. Hell yess, i even talk the talk. Being me isn't easy. With all the foreign ladies that are after me i don't have time to reflect on what makes me well, me. (I kid) I believe that people are whatever makes them smile; art and music make me smile. And Lara from Oregon (But thats another story) If i could describe myself in one word it would be 'fun'." LARA LEVIA....................................................... ....................................... ............................................................ ....................................... "The best way to describe you is you are like Bungle off Rainbow, your big, hairy, cuddly and lovable;)Your a great friend and you make everyone laugh." GEMMA ............................................................ ....................................... "He truely is a great friend, i even consider him to be family.What makes matt great is that he is always willing to give anyone a chance, aswell as been thoughtful and kind!!! this sometime makes him a push over with some people(which i think he secretly likes)!!!! LOL! he is all heart!!! He has had a difficult time of it lately but noone would believe it!!! not even some of his closes friends because like he say it is better to have lived and hurt than never lived at all. He is truely loved by all!!!" SARAH LEE ............................................................ ....................................... "Matt Wilcox, He has a big cock(s). I love him in the face, I am a disgrace. He is mega cool, too cool for school. He makes me want to sex-wee, and he fills my heart with glee. Matt loves the vagina, I am a shit rhymer." PHILLIP JOLLEY ............................................................ ....................................... "There was a point in my life where i actually saw matt not as my brother, but instead, a father figure. Throughout high school when family issues were a bit messed he always took a massive interest in my studies, helped where he could and always pushed me to do better. Looking out for his little brother seems to be a must for matt. Parents split, he never broke apart infront of me, mums funeral - he stood by myside the whole way thro and didnt shed a tear cus he felt he had to be strong for me. When i get stuck in my studies at college, stuff at A level hes never even studied himself, he still helps me to get to the answer sometimes dedicating hours of work. We get along good. We argue occasionally but throughout everything he has been there and i know with great trust he would do anything to help. Sometimes his theories of space, time and other little hobbies get on my tits sometimes but always after reading them it gets me thinking and i love how he backs everything up with evidence trying to come to a conclusion. I love how he finds fun and happiness in everything he does or goes, like when he came to london, even in New Cross (which is quite a rough area) he got so excited and just loved everything about it which seemed strange to myself cus i always see it. His hobbies. He is the biggest hobby whore out. Opposite to myself he has countless passions and they never wear off. He has a great skill in photography and it will make him big one day. Some bad stuff... hes a very messy person, lacks a bit of commen sense but its balanced by his inteligent thinking, and he doesnt see my nana enough. All in all, he is one of the best moralistic do gooding person i have known in my entire life. I am proud to have him as a bruv." STEVEN WILCOX ............................................................ ....................................... "was once staring into a big black hole.He helped me just by being himself.That, in my opinion, says more about him than anything..........He drinks cider, but nobodies perfect" DUNCAN LOCKHART ............................................................ ....................................... "Mattus Wilcoxual!- VERB vb;Matt Wilcoxual is a doing word.Matt's overall genuine composure is bewildering to any one he meets.After so long you tend to rely on Matt to help you from things such as creative concepts to real life dilemnas in which you seek guidance.Always providing the most concrete of options Matt Wilcoxual delivers the purest of help and the most truthful at the same time.He combines both determination and strengths in which we require and should take note of to better ourselves.Obtaining alot in short amounts of time you come to realise Matts versatitilty in life.Throughout anything he touches it most defiantly turns to gold..and if it doesnt it's because he didn't touch it and so didn't deserve to be gold more a dull brass instead.Over coming things is what Matt is more than competent and capable to do...born to succeed and made with the strongest of bodies and minds Matt Wilcox is sumwhat a god amongst mere mortals...A true friend and of late what appears to be the making of a modern day sex steam machine ..he ploughs through the hoards of razzerz in search of nobody but an even better life...raise ur glasses! and show some titties! to MATTUS WILCOXUAL!!" ROBERT FENTON ............................................................ ....................................... "i just want to say......... in all my life through all my trials and tribulations i have always bottled everything up and just had a damm good cry most days, however even thou u dont know matt that well in the grand scheme of things he is the one person that i really feel i can talk to, his kind and gentle face makes him a brilliant shoulder to cry on, he listens to me babble on about my silly troubles, never judges me and always makes me smile, he is without a doubt one of the kindest people i have ever met, a true gent, one of the greats...... thanks matt" ANTONIA

My Interests

..I love boxing. I never really liked it before, thought it was quite boring. Everyone knows how to punch, whats interesting about putting on some shorts and dancing around a ring, right? I was so fucking wrong. Its helped me through some hard times and let me make some great friends. Its allowed me to be more confident and not get those double guessing and butterfly moments when confronted with ambigous situations. It lets me forget the world and feel good about myself. Its constructed my self esteem which i didnt have before. Its helping me to cut weight and finally start to look in mirrors and be happy. I love running. I love testing my mental strength and challenging myself to hold on just a little longer. It gets addictive. I love mountain biking. I value all aspects of cycling from road to bmx. I own my own downhill bike which i spent a year working for and constructing. I get such a feeling of freedom from it. It also provides my form of transport which is good for my health and the enviroment. I fancy building a bmx but ive allways got a project going.Ive fell in love with snowboarding aswell. I got the chance to ride in norway and ive been hooked ever since. Because of money and time situations ive not been able to get out there this year but ive allways got my board so if i really want to i could jump on a flight somewhere. Gotta be real snow man, non of this plastic shit.I also enjoy playing the drums. Ive not had any lessons and if i was completely honest im probebly abit shit but i enjoy it, so im gonna keep with it. Im moving house soon so ill get to play as much as i want hopefully. Considering getting lessons but im tempted in getting piano lessons instead. We'll see eh? I enjoy being a tourist in my own country. Sometimes its important to see our surroundings with new eyes. I love spending time with friends. Ive been growing very close to them and now they are my family. They mean alot to me and i feel my most comfortable when they are around but dont we all really?

I'd like to meet:

People who are caring, People who are positive and truely value life, People who are contantly curious, People who are really old and people who are really young. People from different cultures, people who have passion, people who have the opposite interest to me, people who share the same. People that are humble, people that change my perception of the world. People that make me smile. Altruistic people. Painters, sculpters, illustators, musicians and poets. People who can see the extraordinary in the mondane. People who are forgiving and compassionate. People who are just plain nice!View Blog | View Pics | Add Comment

Movies:

It could be argued that the challange with films is how to make something that is limited, limitless. There are allways constraints in films and these are all dependant upon time. They have to develop characters enough for them to seem real and allow symaphty and empathy but they only have a short amount of time to acheive this. They have to portray a story that is strong enough to be engaging and keep the viewers attention and condense it. I think the best manage to create someting that can be watched more than once and see, hear and understand different things each time. I feel that the greatest films should move you. Should force you to be emotionally involved. They should invite debate and inspire you. They should involve lots of different points and views and sometimes take something and turn it on its head. They should create a real enviroment that can be escaped into. Some souldnt include an ending but be left open and to interpretaion. Films are a very personnal thing and what is epic to one person is the dregs to another. What makes life intereting. I split films into two catagorys. The important and the entertaining. Now the important catagory contains films which have taught me something, made me feel something i didnt before, made me see something from a different angle than i did before or something that connects with my outlook on life, morals and beliefs. Films like shawshank redemption, the green mile, what dreams may come, gataca, children of men, oldboy and the last samurai. Then theres films that are created just for entertainment but are good films none the less. They allow you to escape, they are light and easy to digest. Films like transformers, spider-man, kill bill etc. Im also really really into my japanese anime. Studio ghibli work is my weapon of choice. My favorite ones being are princess monoko, nausica, kiki's delivery service and spirited away. I really didnt think much of howls moving castle. I didnt think it flowed or engaged the viewer aswell as it should. I think it was more concept than story line that carried that film. Im allways willing to give something a try.

Television:

Im twenty two and in those years ive seen many films, ive read many books and spent many hours infront of the television. I have never be moved as much in that time as much as "Lost" moves me. It starts off slow and almost boring but the story develops slowley, quite litterally over time. It has many many twists and turns. The chatacters are rich and have a real sence of depth. You are lead into the lives of these people and learn about them. Soon you share a relationship with the characters and thats when your hooked. It plays with your own emotions. You feel for the characters and often put yourslef in thier place so when sonething effects them, it effects you. The story is limitless and has so many unansweared questions. This is to "lose" the viewer and allow them to share in the characters confusion. The score is simply the most beautifull i have ever heard. Crafted with such intelligence and its ability to mimic and enhance whats happening on screen with out being intrusive is remarkable. The cinematography is fantastic, depth of field, rule of thirds, angles, lighting. I am able to escape into a world where the things we value in western society dont matter anymore and the only thing that does is relationships, friendships and companionships. Where your self worth is tested every single day. Where you have to survive and value everything because you havent got the luxery of taking things for granted. I wish i could live in that world and for them 45 minutes i am oblivous to the outside world and truely content.

Books:

The bible, The torah, The Qur'an. Im not a jew or a chrisitan or a muslim. But we have to face that these three books have effected our lives more than any other. The reason we are here today for better or for worse is because these three books helped to shape our reality. To some they be a collection of lies, to others the only words that matter. I like that, one mans diamond is anothers rock. Ive read the bible and if im ultimately honest i dont believe in the new testament. I only believe in the old testament and i view it from a symbolic point of view not literal. Ive read the Qu'ran and its alot easy to digest and stright forward compared to the bible. There are parts of it which i disagree with but there are parts that i agree. What shocked me though. Is how close the bible and the qu'ran are. They share the same people. Norah, Mary, The archangel Gabriel and Jesus himself all appear in the qu'ran. I think sometimes we would progree further if we saw or similarities first and not our differences. Apart from religous books the rest of my library consists of factual based text. How to build your own mountain bike, how to lay the drums, how to use photoshop etc etc. Although i should i dont fictional books because i get what books bring from good films. Many would see that as lazy and i would agree. The rest of my library is full of my uni coarse suggested reading. Nice boring photography books.

Heroes:

Anyone that doesnt except the standard. Who decides to take the ordinary and create the extraordinary. The unsung heros of this world. People who work hard in thankless jobs and wade through shit chin deep without complaining and never moan about thier own problems. People that can see beauty in ugly things. People that appreciate the achievements in others even though they could reproduce the same thing, quicker and better. People who actively go out thier way and put themselves in trouble to help you. Without ever asking for anything in return or expecting a thankyou. People who listen, understand and are endlessly compasionate without judging, as they understand we all make mistakes. People who forgive or try to forgive. As ghandi said, if we lived by an eye for an eye rules, we'd all be blind. People that change your ideas and angle of perception upon a topic and force you to re-analyse your thoughts. People that appreciate very small insignificant things and treat them like significant things. Humble people. Gratefull people. I believe that i cannot just put a collection of a few names and pretend that they alone are my heros. My life has been filled with many, the ones that have made the most impact are ordinary people. My life will be filled with many. We all have the capacity to be a hero. If only for a moment.
