All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up

My Interests

It is up to you to give [life] a meaning.
--Jean-Paul Sartre

--Blaise Pascal

Television:

I am not very much interested in theprogrammes that can be found on my television.Instead I prefer a bit of escapism and likes towatch most of the cheesy American shows. Irealise these are crap and Hollywoodised - butthey interest me because they depict the life Iwould want for myself. The sun and the prettypeople, not the exaggerated drama. Theprogrammes that I follow are: - Friends - Sex and the City - The O.C. - Lost - Scrubs - Desperate Housewives - Prison Break - Laguna Beach I do however like a good documentary and history programme.

Heroes:

This is a section that I find difficult to answer, as I do not look up to anyone - however, I do respect a lot of people. I admire people who stand up for what they believe in, and who are what they are. People who are strong and come out better the otherside.
