I am loyal, unfailingly cheerful, and fun, or so I'm told.

My Self-Summary

I really am terribly happy. I have family, friends, home, hobbies, occupation. I study at a university just outside of London, a location which is, by degrees, marvellously fun and horribly frustrating. During the holidays I go home to my wonderful family in the beautiful Lake District. It's all tickety-boo.

The only thing is that, as of late, I've had cause to review my isolationist policy. When I look around me at people pairing off into couples, my cynicism and scorn are beginning to be replaced by something approaching envy. Can you help?

What I’m doing with my life

Studying in London (just) for a degree in English and Classics, wondering what I could possibly do with said degree, editing the arts and lifestyle section of a university newspaper, drinking myself into obscurity, and living, alternately, extremely high on the hog, or on whatever funds can be excavated from the depths of the sofa.

I’m really good at

Keeping conversation going in the face of seemingly insuperable odds, making cocktails, proofreading, and, oddly, Cluedo.

The first things people usually notice about me

God knows! Depending on the location/time of day, it could be that I look like an incredibly confident, socially at-ease, well-dressed young Sloane Ranger. Or, alternatively, that I am lying on my back. Dead-drunk. In a ditch.

It varies, really.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I could profess an adoration of Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Jane Austen, Jan Struther and E.M Delafield, and I'd be telling the truth, but you're much more likely to catch me reading Jasper Fforde, Harry Potter, or, above all, Jilly Cooper.

I'll watch any film, but I prefer something with a brain - my musical taste is eclectic (read: bizarre). I'll listen to Muse, Django Reinhardt, Michael Nyman or Ella Fitzgerald equally happily.

I will eat anything. Which sounds obscene, but is nonetheless true.

The six things I could never do without

Books. I'd go mad without them. A good novel is my valium.

A social life. The moment I start constucting an entire weekend around a trip to the supermarket, I'd like to be dispatched swiftly and humanely.

Home: 'home is where, when you have to go back, they have to take you in'.

My friends. Yes, I know it's ridiculously cliched, but cliches do have their basis in fact.

Gin.

Hot baths.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

What to make for supper. Whether I can afford to go away for the weekend. When my next essay is due. Where I've put my railcard - in short, all sorts of Mrs. Dalloway-esque trivia. Also, overwhelmingly, how contented I am with my lot in life.

Occasionally, I think about something really profound. But not terribly often.

On a typical Friday night I am

At some sort of party - whether it be having dinner with friends, or christening a new house, or in the union. Am not a huge fan of clubs though, as I prefer conversation to dancing like a dyspraxic electrocution victim.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

If you want the dirt, you'll have to ask me yourself, I'm afraid.

You should message me if

You want to.
