I go by loads of different names/nicknames so take your pick and away we go:
Emily, Filthy Mare, Em, Ems, Lemony, Wamily, Wam, Wotsit, The Fox, Dem Dems, Blondie, Emsy, Emsy pops, Lemsip, Lem, I could go on...I'm a 25 year old virgo girl who loves to have a laugh. There's two things I cant resist- Cadbury's Creme Eggs and Mince Pies. I like Marmite, chocolate, baileys, wine, and chilli pepper. (Not in that particular order) I have a dislike for choc ices and chicken on the bone. I also dont enjoy spiders or flying, and I hate feeling cold! Apart from that I love life and love to travel, I'm really close to my family, and am an extremely loyal person to my loved ones.At the moment I've just graduated with a 2:1 from Trinity College of Music in Greenwich, London.
I play Viola with Richard Crabtree, but also play violin and piano. I've already been lucky enough to have loads of experience performing, including my string quartet playing to the queen for her golden jubilee in Canterbury playing at Chelsea Flower Show Press day, performing in the Basilica of El Monasterio in San Lorenzo Del Escorial and playing in the Royal Albert Hall with one of the various orchestras I'm playing with at the moment. I've also had some violin lessons with Maxim Vengerov's mentor, Sergei Fatkouline.In September 2007 I joined WATERHORSE a Celtic Folk Rock band (1st on my friends list) on acoustic violin. We have an artists agreement with Line 6 and Bose and use their products exclusively. We have recently been signed by The Morris Agency and all our bookings are now taken through them.
Job wise, I'm doing lots of classical gigs-orchestral and quartet stuff.I'm also teaching for Kent Music School, violin and viola, and also private teaching. Aside from this I'm also working part-time in The Millers Arms and all my regulars are fantastic. :-)..I have an extraordinary love for all things western and long to be a cow-girl! I am hoping to jet off to Montana soon, either with Waterhorse or on a trip to do a cattle drive and camp out under the stars. Heaven!...I love travelling and have been all over the place, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, India, Cape Town, Canada, Los Angeles, Spain, France etc. I want to do loads more and I've just had my first skiing experience in Morzine which I loved (master of the snow plough!!) I love horse riding and cycling and I've done and thoroughly loved sky diving and paragliding too. One of my biggest loves is animals (in the biblical sense!) and I love going out....and especially meeting new people and making new friends. I'm normally to be found in The White Hart, Alberrys, or The Cuban in Canterbury! :-)Music:
If I had my own way I'd be married to Jon Bon Jovi and living the high life on a cattle ranch somewhere but at least i can love his music...My taste is so diverse, just ask me if you wanna know!TV and films:I love all types of films. I think the best I've seen in a long time was The Notebook and Wicker Park. P.s I Love You, The Bucket List, Amadeus, Lost in Translation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, Lord of the Rings, Unfaithful, dirty dancing..what a legendary film (20 year anniversary this year!!) The green mile, Gladiator, The Shining- all the epics, mary poppins and erm....dumbo :-) I like weepies and for some reason enjoy scaring the bejeezus out of myself with horror/scary movies tooI am in love with Top Gear, and all the guys on it! I love Whose line is it anyway, The X Factor, The Restaurant, The Apprentice and I enjoy Dragons Den- Might be something to do with Richard Farleigh (*swoon*), Neighbours (my fave I'm afraid) but Family Guy has to be the funniest thing I have ever seen. I love it!!....
