I am Kind, happy, and thoughtful.
My Self-Summary
I'm a friendly, happy person, and like socialising and meeting
people.
I'm also a bit shy, which I can see doesn't really go with the
above statement. But anyway.
I like spending time with friends, shopping, reading, messing about
on the internet and pootling round museums and galleries. My
favourite is the Natural History Museum - the interior architecture
is beautiful, and I have a thing about the old stuffed birds they
have there.
I enjoy the outdoors, and I like to be near green spaces, so I can
go for walks, runs, picnics, excursions...
What I’m doing with my life
I work as a garment technologist, which I really enjoy. I get to
work all parts of my brain - creative, logical, scientific....it's
very satisfying.
I love drawing, although I don't get to do enough of it.
I'm trying to teach myself guitar, very slowly.
I’m really good at
Drawing I guess... And shopping. I have many shoes.
The first things people usually notice about me
Probably that I am very quiet.
It doesn't last - once I get to know people I am very chatty!
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I like to read a lot, and usually have a few books on the go. My
favourite book is The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins, and my favourite
author is Daphne du Maurier.
I'm going through a bit of a non fiction phase right now, and am
reading about the Berlin Wall. It's not the most cheerful read
though!
I'd love to be one of those people who is really into films and can
reel off a load of arty, intellectual films that they last saw.
Films for me are more about escaping. I prefer action films and
period dramas.
Everyone I've been out with thinks my taste in music is bad. I
think I've just been out with the wrong people. Lately, I've been
listening to Arcade Fire, Muse, Ladyhawke, The Pixies, Sia and The
Standard.
My favourite types of food are Italian, Mexican and Indian, and I
always enjoy good British food like toad in the hole and roast
dinners.
The six things I could never do without
Books
Music
Friends and family
Something to make my brain work
Greenery - parks, plants, gardens.....anything will do
Laughter
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Whether Custard Creams or Bourbons are the more superior biscuit.
On a typical Friday night I am
Out with friends, in the pub, relaxing at home....
You should message me if
You are funny, witty, and a bit geeky.
You are friendly and like to meet new people.
You would like to help speed up my guitar playing.
Or if you are none of those, but weren't freaked out by the stuffed
birds.
