About Me


Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Image Hosting

hmmm....about me.....I suppose it's time I updated this, as I'm no longer 23 and doing a sports course. I'm now 24 and am muppetment in Fiddlers Creek most of the time. Aside from that, I tend to spend my spare time attempting sports when my rickety knee lets me....(the Great North Run will be completed by me *some* year!)
meeting up with peoples, which I don't get to do enough of, driving round in my lil "Golustard" car, listening to music, or drinking. All of the above are things I like to do, but I don't get to do them often enough! I also like to try and get my back to my surrogate home, the North of England-Carlisle or Newcastle, I'm happy in either place :) Like most people who use the internet now, I've several of these random "social networking sites". If, like me, you like to have several ways of forgetting to keep in touch with people, feel free to get me at ItaC5.bebo.com, or Ita Callagy in Facebook. Just don't expect a speedy response....

My Interests

all sorts...sports, reading, writing, music (playing & listening), doing new things, going to new places...

I'd like to meet:

Alive.... Nelson Mandela, Tom Waits, Terry Pratchett...
Dead... My Gran & Grandad, Jimmy Dean, Phil Lynott, Michael Collins
And I'm not too sure if God falls into the Dead or Alive catergory, but yeah...God would be pretty interesting to sit down and have the craic with...!

Music:

I think my taste is what you'ld call eclectic...! in the last hour I've listened to music by: Bell X1,Eric Clapton,Ocean Colour Scene, Eels, Bach, Kanye West, The Streets, Leonard Cohen, The Fugees, Elgar ...anything goes with me really!

Movies:

Crash, Eternal Sunshine Of A Spotless Mind, Puckoon, Fight Club, any Monty Python stuff, Shawshank Redemption, all the old reliable 80's stuff, ie Goonies, Back To The Future....anything that's well thought out/funny/well filmed..

Television:

mainly Scrubs, Desperate Housewives, House,whatevers goin on Newswise, and thanks to the lads in the house, I'm now quite partial to Top Gear...!

Books:

Spike Milligan, Terry Pratchett, John Grisham, Arthur Conan Doyle, and am currently re-reading We Need To Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver....it's amazing-get offline and go get it!

Heroes:

My big sister Babs...she's got Down's Syndrome, and has come through so much, despite my parents being told she had pretty much no chance of surviving after being born with a hole smack bang in the middle of the four walls of her heart...(When she does something, she doesn't do halves...!) And since that, she's achieved so much...knowing what other people can do and knowing she'll never really get to do most things that people take for granted ie a normal life, and yet carrying on happily, coming back after a stroke, and a few years ago, she won a Special Olympics Gold medal.
And besides all that, she my big sis. And everyone idolises/loves their big sister, even if they don't want to admit it...but I'm quite happy to do so!

Memories.....

It's weird, it's my Grandad's anniversary today-Grandpa Joe. I never met the guy, but for some odd reason, the older I've gotten, the more it's upset me that I never got to meet him. From all the stor...

Gran

It's funny&.years ago, I would never have considered myself a big crier. Things would go wrong, I'd be upset yes, cry over it though, no. I'd be watching something sad on tv/dvd etc, I'd might be upse...

Choices and options, or lack thereof.....

Isn't it funny how one day you think you have it all (or mostly&) figured out? And then, the next day, you suddenly realise you haven't got a clue anymore&.I'm having one of those months (yes, I reali...

Love and life and being slightly lost....

Isn't it weird how love suddenly decides to pop up and remind you that it's still around, that even though you think it's all done and dusted, and in the past?I've had a very weird week in t...
