About Me

video-games Contact Tables provided by ProfileGoodies.com ..I'm a pretty chilled out person and have a wicked sense of humour. I'm obsessed with all forms of digital entertainment including computer games, music, movies, and tv series. I've been playing the guitar for nearly 5 years and am easily distracted from anything and everything to pick it up and strum away. I bought my most recent guitar at the end of last year at a music convention and i love her to hell and back. She's a Jackson DKMG and sounds awesome for anything Metal / Rock based when I hook her up to my BOSS ME effects pedal. Having said that she can pretty much handle anything, to accomodate a broad range of styles. I'm currently completing my 3rd year at Staffordshire University, where I'm studying 3D Modelling and Animation. I've started work on my Final Year Project in which I'm going to model H.R.Giger's ALIEN and a background environment to pose it in. I want to work for a games developer as a career in the future, however I really want to travel the world after I graduate. I hope to travel for around a year with my mate Akers once we have saved up enough cash! I'd like to see Japan, Australia, New Zealand, USA and maybe a few other places along the way. I've always been into extreme sports and have been rollerblading since I was about 12 years old. However at the end of 2005 I badly dislocated my elbow while rinsing a backside unity grind on a ledge at EPIC skatepark in Birmingham. It was fucking bullshit, the ambulance didn't appear until like 40 odd minutes later. They were obviously too busy attending to paraletic teenagers who had passed out on New Street on a Saturday night! It was all good after a while tho cos they stuck me on the happy gas, followed by some morphine later on. Heh that stuff gets you fucked out of your tree! Speaking of which...I went off to Amsterdam for a long weekend with a group of lads from back home last summer. It was my mate AJ's 21st Birthday, so we made damn sure it went off with a bang! Check out my blog for some photos from the trip.
