About Me

Myspace Contact Tables
Myspace Layouts, Contact Tables & More! she's cute....she's english....she's kinda canadian....
21 year old Alice In Wonderland. Armed with camera, some sweeties and in full battle regalia (leopardprint skirt, boots, silly hair), ready to take on the world (college, family, mental health system). Sesquipedalian by nature, fussy about grammar, easily alarmed, and extremely forgetful. I was offered the blue pill or the red one. I took both and a few greens for luck. The rabbithole is quite cosy once you get used to it.
I read a lot and usually have my head in the metaphorical clouds. I buy more books than I'll ever get through. I like to quote Shakespeare, like a pretentious theatre student, et quelquefois j'aime parler en Francais, but not today. I'm also attempting to teach myself Latin, but I can only really remember one useful phrase (futue te ipsum
).
In this paragraph, I whore some links! The Myspace Blog tends to get pretty neglected, so anything of any importance whatsoever will probably get written about in my Livejournal .
I'm also a Photography obsessive, and my work can be found on my FLICKR page . I prefer to take casual portraits, or street photography.
I like to go dancing at Stay Beautiful , when I remember to go, and feel like glittery night. I'm a bit of a housecat, and like curling up with a cup of tea and the Guardian crossword on most Friday nights.
Aside from dancing, reading, and annoying the cat with the piano, I'm a student. I'm currently studying 2nd year Psych, French and Literature, which will KILL me because I don't like Thomas Hardy very much... I also volunteer with a local charity in North London called Kith&Kids , which runs camps, weekend clubs, and friendship schemes throughout the year for children and young adults with autism and learning disabilities. Ask me if you want to know more about it!
One day I will go to university, and when I do, I shall tell you all about it, but you'll get bored.
Take the quiz: "Which Dead Rock Star Are You?"

Richey Edwards
You are Richey James Edwards! You're a manic! You aren't too good when it comes to making music, but you're smart and can write well. You're honest and quiet, but different. You are beautiful! Oh, he disappeared in 1995 while on tour with his band Manic Street Preachers.

My Interests



Photography, sleeping, clubbing, playing the piano, dancing, putting glitter on things, weird make up, coffee&smokes, the muppets, disney movies, marx brothers, trying to diet in a healthy way, christopher walken, stuffed toys, pirate adventures, firetoys, nervous breakdowns, prescription drugs, being sociable when it suits me, reading (I breathe books like oxygen), strange arthouse films, Private Eye, writing (fiction, non, no bad poetry), lying on the floor catatonic, monging out to music...

I'd like to meet:


My own wise and stoned Caterpillar to tell me which way to go.

Music:


I think it's this man especially and most of all. I feel as if he sings to me and no one else

Movies:

I fucking ADORE The Adventures Of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert. With passions and stuff.

(those icons by http://www.livejournal.com/users/dive_icons)

Television:

I don't really watch much current TV, QI and University Challenge aside.

Books:

THE OUTSIDERS is by far and away my favourite book ever ever ever. I took it out of the school library when I was 11, and I'm ashamed to say I didn't return it. I fucking adore it.

1984, Vernon God Little, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Lolita, Maus, Tipping The Velvet, most things by George Orwell, books about Vietnam, anything by Stephen Fry (esp. The Liar) , anything by Hunter S Thompson, Pride And Prejudice, Historical fiction, Jeffrey Eugenides: Middlesex and The Virgin Suicides, ALICE IN WONDERLAND, Christopher Isherwood, Chuck Palahniuk (especially Survivor and Lullaby)...the list is pretty endless.

Heroes:

Dad.

My dad came over on Monday evening, bringing with him some Indian ready-meal dishes, and his microwave. The microwave is so dated that it wouldn't fit the depth of my kitchen counter. He's had it sinc...

now hast thou but one hour to live and then thou must be damned perpetually

The preacher seems to come out of nowhere. Staring into my eyes, the only part of my face visible behind the mask, he takes me by the hand and leads me through a hidden door into his parlour. He locks...

I popped into Starbucks for a caffeine boost to take to class. Rachel, who sits next to me, remarked "You shouldn't drink that. They support the war on Palestine." - and referred me to this site . I r...
