| Bio: | Updated 14/02/07:
Doing an MA in Classics at the University of Bristol. It's not as good as I thought it was going to be. Time to go traveling, I reckon. Will go to any country that will have me.
Like some stuff that is hipsterish, some stuff that is not, but make no claims to be cool, because nobody should ever do that.
Prepared to listen to both sides of every argument. Hate it when people don't.
Will one day write a novel. It might be good, but it might not. I'll send you a free copy if you like. It won't be a for-profit endeavour. What a joke.
Have a ukulele. Can't play yet.
Love Apple and all things Mac-related, yet am deeply suspicious of my own idolatry. Actually, I'm deeply suspicious of all opinions I hold, as they're probably the result of layer upon layer of manipulation of 'fact' by mass media. Am beginning to develop, due to external influences, a fascination with this topic.
Am wholeheartedly a procrastinator who eats meat, does drugs and doesn't vacuum enough. Aw, shucks. |
