CURRENT MISSION

To do something, anything, with my life

ABOUT ME

I love art faggery, drawing, photograhy, painting, reading, films, museums, galleries, anything like that. I love music, making it (despite not really having an aptitude) and collecting it. If you're an unsigned band especially, tell me about you guys, I want to hear as many bands, styles and types of music as possible.

I dislike a fair few things, I really dislike a few things. I hate chicory and nothing else. I really hate chicory though. You don't understand how much.

I have a dog called Sprocket, he is a little bugger who ignores me and does what the hell he wants. I finished university 2 years ago, got fired from the only job where someone would employ me after 3 months for sleeping at work, and now I do volunteer promo stuff at a record company. As you can probably tell, I am as a result rather poor, but I don't care. The dog eats, I eat his food when needs be, it's all great, just never say i have dog breath.

PHILOSOPHY

If religion gets in the way of love, there's something wrong with religion.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I am not the kind to win and win, no I am not that kind.

教，学，和分享

Um, I can half-play guitar, and shout a bit at the same time. I really love teaching kids things, i've done a fair amount of volunteering in various places with kids of various different backgrounds and I love every minute of it, even if its a bit tough. I can teach you how to do silly drawings, and that it really doesn't matter who you are, anyone can make something of themselves. I can also teach you to use apostrophes properly.
