I enjoy reading, writing, listening to music and sketching every now
and again. I also like learning new music on my bass, although I'm
not that good at the moment! 

In terms of music, I like pretty much anything, but I mainly prefer
rock in all its forms (except for stuff where the vocals are screamed
not sung; I like to understand what I'm listening to). I must admit
I'm a big Green Day fan, I think they're a great band.

I'll read pretty much anything; so long as it seems interesting, I'll
try it. I mainly read fiction but I enjoy reading non-fiction too,
just not as much. My writing has taken an opposite turn; it used to
be quite fantastical but now I prefer to write more reality based
stuff so I can explore the different areas of human relationship more
easily. 

I also have an interest in psychology. I admit, at the moment it is
passing but I hope to follow this interest more in the future,
especially as I hope to become either an educational or clinical
psychologist in the future. I know this seems weird but I find the
way people think and behave very interesting!

I'm agnostic, but I enjoy speaking to people of all faiths. It is
always interesting to hear about something from different
viewpoints.

I would like to state that I am not gay; then again, I'm not straight
either. I'm halfway between straight and bisexual - I know this sound
weird, but it just means I'm mainly straight and occassionally find
the same sex attractive, less than someone who is bisexual would.
Again, it sound weird and confusing, but in the end it really isn't!

I'm interested in hearing from people from all over the place, but
I'd love to hear from people who live in different places to me,
especially if they're willing to tell me what it is like living in
their country.

If you get in contact with me I will be polite and friendly unless
you give me a reason not to be. I really don't see the point in
arguments so I'll try and work my way around them but if you refuse
to back down (or happen to kick up on a very important issue to me) I
will react. That doesn't mean I'll start spewing abuse, I'm sorry but
I'm not a 6-year-old and this isn't a playground, nor is abusive
language my style. I'd much rather cooly point out the flaws in what
you're saying than try to out-scream you.

My hair is light brown. I've never dyed it but I intend to when I
finally decide on which colour I prefer; just so you know, the colour
probably won't be something....'natural'. I also have an issue with
cutting my hair - I love long hair so I hate it when people suggest I
get it cut short. I personally believe I'd look bad with short hair
anyway.

No, you won't get a picture of me up here. Why? I hate having my
picture taken. I'd rather take the pictures, thanks. I'm far from
'photogenic' anyway, I'm always in the wrong position when the
picture is taken and even when I am in the right position...me and
photographs don't mix, let's leave it at that.


Random information
--¬My favourite season is winter. I love the crisp smell of the air
and the cold weather.
--¬I enjoy walking around. It gives me ideas of what to write,
and allows me to clear my head. I can walk for hours on my own quite
happily.
--¬I'd like to take a gap year between college and university. My
main plan is to go to Japan for a year and teach English, but I'm not
against going to California and teaching in a summer camp.
--¬I want to visit San Francisco at some point, and also New
Orleans. 
--¬I have two cats. Don't ask me what breed they are, I have no
idea.
--¬I'm studying Psychology, Sociology and Combined English
Language and Literature.
--¬I love films by Mike Leigh; I think he's an excellent director.
--¬I'm into animé. Specific series I'm into are Naruto, One
Piece, Serial Experiments Lain, Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw Star. I like
the dub(bed; English language) and sub(-titled; original language)
versions for each show.
--¬Favourite member of Green Day is Mike Dirnt. I look upto him as
someone to become like with my bass-playing, until I get half-way
decent a playing when I'll look for a bassist with a more complex
style of playing to look up to.
--¬I have a random taste in music. Which happens to include many
Japanese songs. Many many Japanese songs.
--¬I know the Llama Song almost entirely off-by-heart, which scares
me.

Mind the Buzzcocks, Doctor Who, Shameless and Whose Line Is It
Anyway?.

realistic here). Either Toronto or Montreal would be ideal for me,
although I'd prefer Toronto as my French isn't that great...
