About Me

I write this at the crossroads of my life, i'm not sure who i am anymore really, i'm just trying to figure out what i want out of life and what i see as important, my answers to these questions are different to 2 months ago and those are different from a year ago, so i don't think there's much point in me writing anything here
'A new life is not given for nothing; it has to be paid dearly for, and only acquired by much patience and suffering, and great future efforts But now a new history commences; a story of the gradual renewing of a man, of his slow progressive regeneration, and change from one world to another-an introduction to the hiterto unknown realities of life. This may well form the theme of a new tale; the one we wished to offer the reader is ended'

My Interests

I guess my interests revolve around academia. I do what i'm interested in as my fieldof study

I'd like to meet:

Anyone and everyone, i hope i can learn lots from many

Music:

I like lots of music, but there are a few artists who have really impacted my life, including; Bob Dylan, Neil Young, 2Pac, Manic Street Preachers, Pink Floyd, Stephin Merritt & Bright Eyes

Movies:

I don't watch many movies i could put a few here that might make people think 'wow look how sophisticated he is', but that would be a lie

Television:

I love television comedy, especially shows such as Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Extras and Futurama

Books:

I find myself seemingly always reading books on sociology or politics. I have really enjoyed much of the Russian/East European literature of the past i've read. But i'm nowhere near as knowledgeable or well-read as i should be

Heroes:

Yeah, I have a couple

My Blog
