Influenced by Pandaemonium's 'reaching thirty post'. I'd thought we should all just write some basic facts about us, why not?

I'm 17, 18 in January.

Study Politics, History and Sociology at Glasgow Uni

Live in East Kilbride, Scotland.

Been seeing my girlfriend for 6 months, her birthday is day after mine... I've known her from primary school but didn't talk much in Secondary although we went out before.

I'm a supervisor in a hospital shop (George Orwell began '1984' in the hospital) and work part time there.

I'm the only one of my friends who can't drive and have pretty much given up.

Live with my mum, dad and younger brother of 15.

I play guitar and keyboard quite badly.

My diet is appaling and I'm thinking of working out.

Yesterday I wore a hat for the first time in years. Had myself a picnic in the back row of Sociology lecture, a lovely toffee muffin was the highlight. Accidently hit somebody with my bottle in front of me, hit off him and hit the girl infront of her. I also had an argument with the group charity people who muttered something under his breathe when I replied 'No thanks, I'm in a rush'. And therefore just made train, went home with girlfriend and then drank underage in the pub.

That was fun.

Women.

*sigh*

Off to pub now. Hope the throat gets better soon.

I know a few people in Huddersfield, not as good as old leeds though.

Where abouts did you grow up?

Born and bred Leeds lass but moved to Huddersfield earlier this year (not my idea).

I didnt know you lived in Leeds ineedsleep.

:-)

Everyone started with their age but a lady never tells. However, as I’ve not been accused of that too often, at the end of this January half of me will be 21 and half of me will be 20.

I work full time in an office environment doing everything from making the tea to the accounts, selling spare parts and support for the machines we supply and generally being my own boss so I have a real cushy job.

I am studying at Leeds Metropolitan for a degree in Computing. Just for the hell of it originally but I’m at that inbetween stage at the moment and really hating it. The only reason I’m still doing it is I promised my mum I would before she died.

I’ve owned an alto sax for about 15 years now and as soon as I finish the degree I am going to learn to play the bloody thing instead of just leaving it in a corner to collect dust.

I have 1 husband and 1 dog. Had a beautiful purple spider but my husband managed to kill it while it was still a baby. No kids, horrible screaming things. Would adopt some but I don’t think you can adopt them after they reach the age of 20.

I’m supposed to be in Spain for my hols this year to coincide with Euro 2004, supposed to be going to Germany in the year 2006 and will definitely be going to Vegas in four years time. Not bad for someone who hates to travel outside of Britian.

Would love to take my dog and walk the length of Hadrian’s wall.

Been into games consoles for a long while now and new people I meet often comment that I am in my second childhood while anyone in my family will tell you I never left my first one.

Musical tastes? Mostly rock music with a smattering of classicals and songs from the musicals. Definitely no Motown.

Favourite gig? Queen when they played Elland Road

That’s it I think. Time to grab a bacon and cheese sandwich prior to going to the pub.
