I should be reading...or writing...or reading some more!

About Me

My name is Anna, I live in Bristol and I'm 25 years old.I originally started this page when I was about to be a bridesmaid and thought I was going to blog about my shoe crisis, hence the URL. It hasn't quite worked out like that but I'm enjoying the myspace world.

I think I'm still growing into myself and I'd like to do lots of things - learn to DJ, travel more, get involved in a few more local projects and go to more gigs among many other things.

I am involved with Bristol V-day (check my 2nd top friend) - please come and see us in our play!

I often threaten to run away and join the circus, but I really want to be a cowboy.

My Interests

sleeping plenty, going out having fun, movies, theatre, reading, shoes, gigs, mooching, cleaning, Open University, getting a decent job, equal rights, children's rights, dressing up like the 50's, SHOPPING, taking photos of myself
