It hit me that I've been a member of this site for a year and I do post a bit; so I may as well properly introduce myself to teh forum.
I'm nineteen year old bloke whose lived in London for the last decade. I was born in Swansea in South Wales so was consigned to a lifetime of international footballing (soccer) disapointment though we're pretty good at rugby.
I live with my parents in Harrow and their genrally alright. My dad's a chief and has been working in the indian restaurant scene for about fourty years now and as you can imagine he's a pretty darn good cook. My mum has just filled in the role of homemaker and fulfills the sterotypical nagging mother though she thinks I'm an idiot. But it could be worse, I have a lot of freedom to do what I want particulary as my dad trusts me not to do anything stupid. I also have two older sisters aged thirty and twenty-seven. I get along pretty well with my older sister considering the age gap, she used to be a secondary (High( school teacher but she's taking a break to raise her kids while her husband supports them. I get along with my brother in law and her two kids aged three and one are lovely albeight mad but I love them nevertheless. The relationship with my other sister is more turbulant though. When she was eighteen, she ran away fro home to marry her Boyfriend. I didn't see her until five and a half years when I was nearly sixteen by then she had gotten divorced and was an accountant. Currently I haven't seen her for about two adn a half years. It used to hurt but as I got older, I was able to develop a new perspective on the situation; she was doing what she wanted and I have no control over it. I don't have any of her details whilst she has mine so the ball is in her court.
I'm currently at Queen Mary University studying politics which is ok. University isn't living up to what I had hoped (i.e. uber open mindedness, greater chances of becoming close with people) but I'm only in my first year so things can get better. I should be doing an essay but I'm a bit ill so I'll do it hwen I feel better. If anyone's wonndering about my political alliegence, I'm Left Wing (Waits for the Trolly seal of approval) though I wouldn't say I was a traditional socialist but I do support the notion of social justice and my greatest political hero is Nye Bevan whose the man responsible for creation of the National Health Service. Now where's my flame shield...
I like music and my favourite band are the Manic Street Preachers, in fact my name comes from a song from the lead singer's solo album. I guess I like a band who aren't afraid to make htemselves look like idiots. I also adore New Order, Joy Division, The Clash and Echo and the Bunneymen. I'm currently getting into The Hold Steady after getting my hands on 'Stay Poistive' which I've been listening on my commute to university.
I also apperently like playing video games, I have a playstation 3 and a DS (OMG that's in my sig) and both are fun machines. I'm not playing anything religiously on the DS at the moment as there hasn't been anything to interest me apart from bejewled Twist and 7 Wonders II. Glory of Heracles hasn't really interested me and I spen seven hours on Sands of Destruction and just felt the battle system was a bit broken. I've picked my Nostalgia again and I'm just doing the extra missions as I finished the story a while ago. I've got my eye on Ace Attorney Investigations this month and Shin Megami Tensei, Pokemon and Infinite Space next month.
my PS3 is get some good attention recently, I've gotten into Half Life 2 on the Orange Box (I know the PS3 bersion is Valve's bastard Stepson) and I'm on chapter eight at the moment; all I can syat is that it's an excellant game so far. I finished Saint's Row 2 and Eternal Sonata last month, so I've been looking for something new and I've just pre-ordered Star Ocean: The Last Hope Internation off Play.com for £30. That should be arriving next week and I'll play that when I finish HL2.
And that's me in a nutshell (or blog post). I apologise for not neing interesting but fuck it. Thanks for reading or I don't balme you for not reading a word.
