About Me

Hey im Claire, also known as Claire Bear, Blondie, Bailey, Clurb, Dribs or Dribbla, depending on where I am and who Im with. Just turned 22 which is making me appreciate more what people say about time flying and making the most of being young cos this past year has flown by. Currently doing a Masters degree in Criminology at Portsmouth Uni after being here for 3 years on the same undergrad course and lovin it so much (yes im learning how the minds of criminals work so I can eventually become one haha but also trying to put off being a responsible adult and enjoyin still being a tax-dodging, daytime-tv lovin' student!!). I live for going out and partying with my friends, dancing around like theres no tomorrow, meeting new people and listening hard to what the next song will be then laughing in my friends faces when I get it right all the time seeing as I have an inbility to hear most other things normal ppl hear... Going away to uni has made me realise what an awesome place Brizzol is and I absolutely love the night life there - so much so it has introduced me into some cool circles of people and taken me on wild nights out all over the country. Im a pretty laid back person but I dont like being told what to do much - Im pretty independent and individual so anyone thinks they can boss me around too much will feel my wrath! Would say Im funny in some sort of way but I think people mostly laugh at me rather than with me but hey! I find lots of random things funny too and will often make myself laugh for no reason but if you cant laugh at yourself then whats the point!! In fact I laugh so much that it has unfortunately prematurely aged me as I now have the laughter lines around my eyes of a 75-year-old. For the time being though, life is pretty sweet.... :D Here are a few of my favourite things: tea and cake, afternoon tv, tidying up, shopping, dancing, making noise, having my back rubbed, rose wine, maltesers, live music, hot baths, cider, making lists and ticking things off, man hugs, people playing with my hair, slippers, my puddy cats, stars, penguins, sarcastically moaning, blankets, campfires, jogging bottoms, tv in bed, pay day, cheese on toast, sleeping and not sleeping, afterhours partys, squash :DFunny thing: "Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, We’d all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music." - Kristian Wilson, Nintendo Inc. 1989 ....cor imagine that!!

My Interests

Shopping (when I have money), dancing around like a crazy fool, bursting into song whenever the mood takes me, hanging out with my buds and clubbing hard until the early hours then staying up to watch the sunrise and putting the world to rights, laughing til it hurts, cruising around in my car windows down system up singing at the top of my voice (I have no shame), afternoon Tv with a fat cup of tea and some sort of treat, usually a muffin. I also like being organised (cant live without my diary) and cleaning, which is weird but my housemates like it :D and probably take advantage of that fact. Im easily pleased - as long as theres music and laughter somewhere in my day before I go to bed each night I sleep well :) Summer is deffo the best month (largely becuase I get to spend 4 months off uni bumming around and having fun) and everything just seems better when the suns out: Newquay, surrounded by buddies, drinking, bbq's down the common, road trips, campfires on the beach, beer gardens, random trips out, bike rides, sunbathing, having the house to myself for 3 weeks while my rents go away, house parties, random photo mishions, flip flops, not having to wear a coat when u go out and queue up to put it in the bastard cloak room at clubs, men with their tops off, last minute holidays, getting a tan, the smell of flowers and freshly cut grass, strawberries and ice cream...ahhh the list is endless

I'd like to meet:

Paris Hilton cos I think shes wicked and anyone else who makes me laugh - which to be fair isnt that hard - simple things/simple minds I think is the phrase... Also the Banker (I bet hes a real sex bomb with that deep, sultry chortling we get to hear sometimes) and the Stig. Ok and Il throw in Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp and Colin Firth for obvious reasons. Ooh and Professor Dumbledore - that would be awesome....and Homer Simpson too!! What a legend...

Music:

Anything and everything that has a beat and that I can bop along to! First and foremost by a long way - love dirty, electro and jackin house, the dirtier and more underground the better, as well as some hefty drum n bass, some stompin' indie, live musics always good, raw hip hop, good old fasioned rock n roll (yes I have to admit I do actually like some of the stuff my rents listen to), old school classics, and you cant beat the 90's BritPop era - East 17, Oasis, BLur, N-Trance, D-ream, Take That - oh to be this age back then...basically anything thats not commercial or likely to be found down the highstreet on a saturday night I'l like. Im pretty easy going apart from that but no scary/angry/emo music either!!

Movies:

Dirty Dancing (classic), Shrek, Shawshank Redemption, Saw, Mary Poppins, Harry Potter (dont diss it til uv tried it!), Alice in Wonderland (the original), Saturday Night Fever, Snatch, Sin City, The Bodyguard, Bridget Jones, Kill Bill, ICE AGE!!!! Baseketball, American Beauty, Romeo & Juliet, Southpark the Movie (actually lmao), Cruel Intentions, The Sweetest Thing, Fight Club, Bill and Ted, American Beauty, Whats Eating Gilbert Grape, Wallace and Gromit, Lock Stock, Football Factory, Fear & Loathing, Layer Cake, Human Traffic, Pride&Prejudice cos it has Colin Firth in it...cant think of any more for now, will update as they come to me

Television:

Whoa this list is gunna be ma-HOO-sive! ok...Deal or no Deal, Paul O'Grady, Desparate Housewives, the O.C. Family Guy, NEIGHBOURS!!! Simpsons, Futurama, Rail Cops, You Are What You Eat, Top Gear, Hollyoaks, Shipwrecked, One Life, Midsommer Murders, A Touch of Frost, Americas Next Top Model, Lost, Art Attack, Countdown, Southpark, Pimp My Ride (Xzibit style though not Westwood you shite gangster), Spaced, Dirty Sanchez, The Mighty Boosh, Booze Britain! Punk'd, Sex and the City, Friends, Green Wing, Smack the Pony, Jackass, Thundercats, Monkey Dust, Loose Women, Jeremy Kyle, Street Wars...I need to get a life

Books:

Birdsong, Harry Potter (can't fookin wait til book 7), murder mystery novels, heat magazine (if that counts)

Heroes:

My Dad cos he actually knows everything, can fix any problem and is a bit of a ledge amongst my friends with his handing out (or should I say forcing) of the cherry vodka!! Plus Sandy Cohen - for all you OC fans you know why.
