Punk In Drublic

About Me

Hi, welcome to my profile. First of all I must say that I don't usually accept friend requests from people I don't know - if I don't know you then I'll accept you once we've sent a few messages back and forth. Just letting you know! I'm at college, repeating the first year of BTEC National Diploma in Fashion and Textiles. It's hard work! I'm a cross between a punk and a glam rocker, I love both types of music equally, even though they're opposites! I like my clothing style to match my musical tastes too, so you will often find me in a band t-shirt. I love the Clash, I kept finding the album London Calling cropping up in my life so I began to listen to it around Autumn 2005. I instantly loved it and became a fan of the band and their other work. They make modern alternative music sound so watered down. So many points make them phenomenal, and they have opened my eyes to many different genres of music. More about me- I have Autism, so I have trouble with communication, understanding, and all sorts. I was only diagnosed a few months ago, and it's not really severe, but it does affect my daily life. So please have some patience - and remember it does not mean I am stupid! I am intelligent, I just find it hard to put my thoughts into words, which can delay replies to messages even if I am online. I WANT THIS TATTOO!!
