I am here for Friends

About Me

Still at uni, studying civil and environmental engineering at UCL (having done politics and philosophy the last time round), but am in Perth, Western Australia for a year on exchange and working part time as an environmental engineer. --- Hence the myspace to keep in touch with all my lovely friends who are now on the other side of the world. Although it has become a bit of an obsession which i may have to curb before it gets too unhealthy. about me?... umm... I like to get wasted... I don't tend to pay much attention to consequences...I do stuff i shouldn't when I'm drunk, all the time... I leave everything to the last minute... I am hopelessly indecisive...I don't know the meaning of the words 'moderation' or 'balance', I do everything in extremes... I'm passionate, maybe a bit too much... I am very loyal and would do anything for my friends... I will try anything once... I hate being bored... I want to experience as much as possible in my lifetime... I fall over a lot when I'm drunk... I believe life is about living, being happy and making other people happy, not material things, status or high-powered jobs... I want to work in the renewable energy sector when I eventually graduate (that is the whole reason behind another 4 years at uni...), and probably move to Australia permanently because I hate English weather (yes I know that is hypocritical). And all you guys should move out here too so I don't have to miss you. .. ..
