About Me

The names Anthony. basic stats are im 6ft 2", pretty well built, otherwise known as obese, brown eyes/hair, mediteranean complexion. My hair never does what i want it to, but its ok, atleast im not bald yet like my dad haha.

Ive just finished art school as a so-called graphic designer, and im now doing some messed up open uni styled website design and animation course. Im loving it, HTML gives me the chance to combine my digital artistic streak with this crazy coding malarky. Im also running my own pretty successful (if i do say so myself) clothing line , which pays for my over zelous desire for all things beer related, aswell as a bloody good holiday now and again.Nice.

I have this facial expression that looks pretty arrogant, dunno why my face does that.Im quite a shy kinda guy, got quite abit of self-confidence in my own ability, but if i dont know you or if im put into a public speaking situation im like one big sweat gland, well lets just say pretty nervy. I put this down to the fact i live inside my head, way too deep thinking, and seldomly on the ball.

Im lucky because i have always managed to find a decent girl to be by my side.

Her names Fiona, and without going into the ins and outs of a magpies backside, i reckon shes the bestest. Honest, as loyal as a bloodhound, genuinly caring, and the most selfless person i think ive honestly met.She also the only girl who can make me laugh, sorry ladies you just aint that funny these days, take a leaf out of Anne Widicombes book ;) To add to that shes got a fantastic look, brunette just the way i like them, silk skin, curvacious, just my perfect type of women. Imagine the complete opposite to how the Nazi's integrated with the Jews, and you have an idea of how close we are. Shes right up their with the kind of people i always hoped and envisaged being part of my life and by far my best friend :)Right, well less of that, and more about MEEEEEEEEEE. Im common as muck with impeccable table manners, i cant abide people licking their knives, or not putting their knife and fork together after they've eaten - man that grinds my gears.

My favourite things to fill my days are Fiona, rowing, weight lifting, smoking (when im going out for fresh air), eating ploughmans sandwiches, drinking Peroni, having passionate sex and hanging with my major homies (not at the same time), listening to metal/hardcore/jazz, dance trance by night, highlands of Scotland - less people than anywhere ive visited - love it, having a cup of tea with my folks, i don't see them enough despite living at home, and whos gonna turn down free tea? I also like fine dining in the kind of places you stare through the window at like an alley cat. Thats it i think.

My Interests

fiona,pirates(not ninjas martin).design. heavy music. animation. weights lifting, rowing and general fitness. i also like walking and the scottish highlands. lavishing money on certain desirable folk. getting pissed up and getting naked, really gotta stop doing that tho.i also like making up completely random expressions or listing words and making sentences out of them. thats the key that inspires most of my art.

I'd like to meet:

No 11 year old kids, dude if you're reading this, stop pestering me. Anybody who's interested in metal/design/life. If you are a lady, please refrain from getting too friendly please. I don't mind friendship with anybody, but if you are female please don't misinterpretate or confuse my apparent friendlyness with wanting to slam you, that really is not the case.

Music:

first of all, no i dont have long hair anymore, but i do wear tight jeans and rock like your mum.mainly the bands i choose to work with but also metalcore, nwoahm, hardcore, mathcore, death metal, grindcore genres. crazyshit like sikth,minus!, war from a harlets mouth, 36 crazyfists,job for a cow boy, as i lay dying, early eighteen visions, amsteah, embrace the end, bring me the horizon, athena, ion dissonance,killswitch engage, mad capsule markets, the acacia strain,emanuel, poison the well and my favourite band..wait for it.. norma jean!, hell yeh. and for a change i like some drum+bass, breakbeat, JT(believe it or not), dizzee rascal mate,some kano, incubus(only science), jamiriquoi,no doubt(tragic kingdom=amazing, easy listening bluesy jazz type stuff aswell.
