About Me

Buon giorno/buona sera! Depending on when you're reading this. I'm no good at writing these things but I'll have a go. I live at home in sunny Cumbernauld (What's it called? I hear you all shout!) and work part time in a social club, Pheonix Nights anyone?! I'm also now working in Debenhams full time. Shall be giving up the club soon, need the money. I'm going to college in September to chase the dream. Going to do Animal Care at Elmwood College in Cupar, so shall have to move up there which will be cool and scary and loads of fun. I'm the youngest of five kids, biggin up my parents for achieving that! I have three brothers and a sister, all extremely cool ppl in their own way! I like general things, having a laugh, going giggin, hangin out, the usual stuff. I also take guitar lessons and like to spend time pretending I'm an awesome rock star!I graduated from Strathclyde uni in 2006 with an honours degree in history. Not doing much with that really although I do still love history. In my spare time I work as a volunteer guide at the Burrell Collection so come along for a tour if you wish. I want to be an animal keeper, possibly also travel the world saving all the animals, so watch this space, maybe you can come with me!I wanna travel, play rock n roll, save the world, live near the sea and be extremely happy. I've got a cat called Kettle, shes as mad as ever, long may it continue! Anyway, check out interests etc to answer those burning questions you obviously have about me.Rock on ppl, be lucky!
