About Me

About Moi:
Born in ’88, moved abroad in ’89, came home in ’96 via some of the most beautiful places on Earth that won’t be there now, and here I am, in 2008, nearly 2 decades done since I was born, seen the turn of a century and a new millennia, survived numerous ‘end-of-the-worlds’, had an American and an English education, climbed volcanoes, been camping in wadis, picnic’d at the side of a desert road with camels eating our scrap…
So now, I'm a dreadhead who's training to be a plumber, as my other career plans didn’t quite make it past AS Level at college. I go to lots of gigs, spend lots of money I don’t have, owe lots of money I’ll never have and would quite like to go to Dubai, back to Jordan and maybe to Greece.
That’s all there is to me – I’m a dull person. I like to travel and wish I did it more often, I love Saudi Arabia and wish I still lived there. Wild animals fascinate me, frogs amuse me..
I love my life right now.
I'd Like To Meet:
Jay Malinowski. Someone I can talk to lots about rubbish. An employer. A person who grows money trees. Me in 10-15 years time..
Life is:
Wishing I could play the accordian; Pancakes & sunspots; New Found Glory; Rave music and pretending I’m at a rave; Spending the night with Adam, having no sleep, and then getting horribly ill after; Coaches to everywhere; Watching far too many DVDs; Less Than Jake; Frogs in the garden; Tadpoles!; Liquid eyeliner in varying colours; Glittery liquid eyeliner; Sausage, chips & beans after a night of no sleep; Dreadlocks; Too much hair dye and/or bleach; Plumbing; Flogging Molly; Having a rubbish immune system; The prospect of going to Glasgow; Snow at easter; Wanting to live in London; Knowing the bestest people (I love you); Going to loads of gigs; Deafness; just amazing right now.
