Self-summary ? Well I don't really know where to start (I hate these sorts of things). I guess I'm a fairly intelligent and kind person who tends to put others before himself.
I'm full of useless information due to the fact I have a very good memory.

I like making new friends as often as I can, though I'm quite shy in person which is a contrast to how I am on the internet - usually very silly with too many words spilling out onto a keyboard, which can get me into trouble sometimes.

Fighting depression, its a boring thing to talk about really.
I prefer doing fun stuff to avoid thinking about certain things.
If i sound crazy, don't worry. I save that for boring tuesday afternoons.

I'm currently in the process of getting myself back on track in terms of finding a career (probably something in the IT world, something I've been resisting cos I don't want to be a telephone support monkey "Have you turned it on ?" etc.).
Most of the time I can be found pottering around on the internet or out walking in Oxford, usually with my camera. Photography is a good way of keeping myself motivated as I still have a lot to learn about the different techniques. You could say I'm slightly obsessed with photography

Photography (still a lot to learn), understanding sciencey things, getting computers to behave themselves, building computers and lots of other geeky things I guess.

I've been told I'm a good listener, whatever that means. I just try and help people when and where I can.

My shyness, blue eyes, sense of humour, my smile (though that is a rare thing indeed to catch me smiling). My sarcastic sense of humour (which can get me into a lot of trouble).

Books - I have a love for reading, so I will read pretty much anything that takes my fancy. Favourite books (it's a mixture) -
Harry Potter series, The works of J.R.R. Tolkien, The Chronicles of Narnia, His Dark Materials series, Sophie Scholl and the white rose, No Logo, A feast for crows....

TV - Shameless, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Doctor Who, Bones, Fringe, and pretty much anything that takes my fancy while flicking through the channels.

Movies - I love cinema, anything from the latest blockbusters to international film. Favourite films -
The Goonies, Ghostbusters, City of God, Ong Bak, A beautiful mind, The Dark Knight, Frankenstein, various Hammer Horror films, Dr. Strangelove, Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb. If listed all my favourite films I'd be here for a month of Sundays typing.

Music - Having spent my teenage years listening to John Peel on Radio 1, I developed an odd musical taste with a few guilty pleasures. I will listen to anything once. Favourite bands - Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, REM, Sigur Ros, Foo Fighters, Manic Street Preachers, Nine Inch Nails, Paramore, No doubt, A Perfect Circle, Slade, The Beatles, The Smiths, Boxfive, Bat For Lashes
Artists - PJ Harvey, Beth Orton, Jeff Buckley, Tori Amos and a lot more. The more music I can find and enjoy the better...

Food - I'm relearning to cook at the moment, may have a bash at baking at some point. Used to make cakes a lot as a child when I spent my summers at my grandmothers house.
I don't have a particular favourite food aside from British puddings which I should probably refrain from eating.

music, friends, camera, books, doctor who, glasses

A lot of things really. I have a childlike wonder about the world around me. I would list the things I think about but I would be here until the next century or longer. I think at a million miles an hour sometimes, which can drive me up the wall.

Usually in front of a computer or tv or occassionally out with friends.

I've suffered with depression since my early teens. It's not a nice illness to have, but I'm getting better at dealing with it. I also like to be honest about having depression, as honesty is the best policy.

When I'm not woe is me, I love learning about new things or spending time in the Ashmolean. Though alas the Ashmolean has been closed for the past year for a refurbishment. It's reopening soon, so that'll be heading to the Ancient Egyptian stuff then...

If you managed to get this far, then by all means send me a message if you really want to.
