Hmmm. Well first thing is that I am a complete geek. I've been into Sci-fi shows since I was 3, so you can imagine that it's all had a pretty big impact on my life. I am pretty well grounded in the real world though. First and foremost I love to help people with their problems and I'm told I give really good advice and the fact that I could see the silver lining in a mushroom cloud always seems to make people feel better......course other times my opitimism just makes people sick and tired of me. Just lke everyone though I still have my moments of feeling completely down about the world and moments like that I often feel like I need a little TLC myself. I've also been brought up in a pretty old fashioned manner so I like to think that I'm a true gentleman at heart. I tend to be a very protective person alot of the time.
I'm also hugely open minded. I have alot of interests and alot of my own opinions but I love to discuss them with other people whether they agree with me or not. I also try to have a go at anything at least once...no matter what it might be. :P

At the minute I'm working at the local Co-op department store down in the Toy shop of all places. It isn't where I want to be but you take what you can really. What I really want to do is go onto my writing. I'm thinking about scriptwriting in particular now. Even working on a sitcom which everyone I've told say it's a good idea. So maybe I'll just make a name for myself in a few years. I also am working with a friend of mine on a few episodes of Doctor who. Might get lucky with those but they're more a bit of fun for me. Yes yes I know I'm a geek. I thought I mentioned that already? At the same time another friend and I are working on ideas for a whole new drama/sci-fi show. That's still in the early stages though.
And finally my main project at the minute is writing a trilogy of fantasy novels. I have quite a complex idea ready, I just need to do the research about various aspects for it.

I quite enjoy talking about my ideas with others so if any of these interest you then feel free to ask. :P

Writing. I really do love words. Whether in speech or in writing but I esspecially love writing. As I said earlier I'm working on a sitcom at the minute that with just a bit of hope and luck may get produced when it's finished. The idea is certainly better than alot of other crap that's on tv these days. Also I'm very good at retaining useless knowledge to be used at opportune moments. (I'm a bit of a know it all basically.)

Hmmm....before I edited this I would say I'm shy. Thanks to a few personality changes it can now be said that I am a lot more confident in my self than I used to be so that isn't strictly true. I'm still shy ans awkward silences will often follow an initial word or too. If you ever meet me and that happens it just means that I am considering what to say next. I'm just one of those people who thinks too much.
The other thing people notice about me is that I sound quite posh and proper. I've heard that less and less over the years but it's still something that happens every now and then. Really though I just like using needlessly long words.....

There's quite a bit to list here. Favorite books are usually stuff by Robert Ludlum. He's the guy who originally wrote the Jason Bourne Novel series (Also love those movies). Course I'll also read Harry Potter like most other people on the planet and have all seven. I also collect books with largely useless yet interesting inforamtion in them. Like the 101 things to do before you die or the zombie survival guide. And lots and lots of reference books from readers digest. It just comes from my need to learn. I'm also a fan of shakespeare and I really want to get round to reading books by some of the other literary geniuses like dickens or chaucer or HG wells. I'm ashamed to say I haven't read any of the classics yet. Really need to at some point.

I have many many many movies that I like. It all depends really. I am a Sci-fi geek so I do tend to like some good sci-fi adventure or fantasy. Star Wars and Lord of the Rings come to head immediately. Also i always have to love a good action movie like Die Hard. I'll even secretly enjoy alot of chick flicks and disney movies though I will complain just to maintain what little manlyness I have left. Besides. It's only the funny ones I like the proper serious romance once like say.....Dirty Dancing I hate with a vengence.

TV wise I watch a wide variety too. I love comedy. Esspecially my own British sense of humour. Al Murrey, Dylan Moran, Dara O'Brien and Billy Connoley in particular. So I like to watch shows with lots of laughs like Mock the Week, Have I got news for you, Nevermind the Buzzcocks and loads of sitcoms like Only fools, Yes Minister, My Family, Allo Allo, Black Books, Porridge and any number of others.
Drama wise I like stuff that's a little bit diferent. I'm particularly fond of stuff like Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes. The mini series Jekyll was also pretty cool when it was on. I'm also a fan of House and CSI too. I've also recently and quite quickly got into watching the west wing to the point of buying the entire series on dvd. Same thing with the Sharpe and Hornblower series.
Sci-fi again comes up with my tv tastes with the likes of Doctor Who, Stargate, Star Trek, The sarah Connor Chronicles, Babylon 5 and Firefly.
A friend of mine has also just recently got me into watching a little anime. Haven't found all that much I like yet but I've become a fan of full metal alchemist, death note and gundam wing pretty easily. I'll basically try anything once.

When It comes to music i'll listen to practically anything other than the heaviest of heavy metal bands and Rap/Hip hop type stuff. Rock music tends to be my favorite though. Particualrly Meat Loaf, Bon Jovi and Linkin Park. Bit of a weird mix I know but like I said i'll listen to practically anything. Otherbands I listen to that I particular enjoy are :
AC/DC
Aerosmith
Queen
Alice Cooper
Breaking Benjamin
Guns N Roses
Maroon 5
Rooster
Sixx AM

Favourite foods.....again i'll eat practically anything but I love Italian food like lasagne and Pizza.....course there is something to be said for plain and simple chocolate ice cream as well. To be honest there isn't really like anything over anything else at the moment. I occasionally find something I miss having cos I haven't eaten it in a while (at the minute that's chinese food)

Hmm. Pretty cliche list I guess.

1. Love.
2. My friends
3. A stable Internet connection
4. The outside world and the feel of a misty and crisp winters day.
5. A pen and paper.
6. My optimism, ambition and a hope for better things.

Life. No really I find pretty much everything around me fascinating and I love thinking about our place in the universe. I'm not a religious person but sometimes you just have to wonder how and why we're aware and why we've created all we've created and how we know what we know. Basically I guess the two things I think about most is How? and Why? regarding every aspect of our exsistance. And our existance up til this moment in time.
I also spend alot of time thinking about how alone I often feel within it...

Hmmm. These days quite often my friday nights involve going to the pub with a mate or two and have a few drinks and play some pool. Just general good fun. It's on every other night of the week when I really want to just lay in bed with a girl I can really care about, watch a good movie and cuddle up next to eachother.

I'm a hopeless romantic. I beleive in love conquers all and the idea of love at first sight and all that sort of stuff. Course that means that I also privately enjoy chick flicks.......I don't like to watch them by myself but if I have the right person to watch them with I'll really get into them..............
Having said that....I'm also afraid that I may hurt someone like I got hurt not too long ago. I'm not so afraid of getting hurt myself, I know that I can get through it now....But I don't want to hurt anyone like that myself.... I know that's kinda vague but it's just kinda a long story. If you really want to know then I'll tell you I guess.....

If you can put up or like my geekiness and my absurd amount of Optimism on life.
Also if any of the above hasn't scared you at all. I doubt it though. I'm a pretty easy going person. A bit of a psycho as well when I get going..but one of those nice kinda psychos that just wants to make people feel better and have fun as opposed to one of those Knifey Stabby ones that you hear about.
Also If you just feel like having someone to talk to. I'm always ready to meet new friends.
