About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorI like stuff.

At the moment I call Croydon home, and London my work place. I am also a student. This year is my work placement, and I am spending it developing IT systems for people who already have too much money. I love the job, but my conscience doesn't. I'm a Christian but am prone to frequent crises of faith, have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome but manage occasional bursts of great energy and have been known program computers in my spare time but am actually quite interesting. I play guitar, and record music I have written when I get time. It's alright.

My brother is one of the most talented people I know. He takes photographs of things, makes the mundane beautiful and creates clothing. Check it:

Ethics and Insomnia

It seems I can't sleep, because I can't stop my mind from shouting at me. I was always the kind of person who would lose sleep over the kind of things that people say "I won't lose any sleep over that...
