: About Me

I am a European Teenager who has lived in England for my entire life, and I have slightly eccentric tendancies as any of my readers will know...*chuckles*...perhaps I shouldn't point out my eccentricity just yet.

I am a mucisian of only three years, but I am at a respectable standard on the piano, and I am a lover of abstract art, modernism and languages - I speak a bit of Spanish and German and hope to be fluent one day, but maybe not today.

Crumbs...I am already running out of things to write about! I must be a boring person. My problem is that I am young and inexperienced, and I have yet to venture out of my own continent. I have many opinions that I will share, and I will read many excellent articles.

My passion is ...

playing the piano at ridiculous speeds, anything really modern, writing and languages

I know too much about ...

how to apply to medical schools in Britain.

My parents always told me ...

"Repress your opinions because we don't want to know"

My childhood ambition ...

still is to become a doctor of sorts.

My favorite memory ...

I have a photographic memory and memorise everything, so it is too hard to choose.

Why I write ...

See what my parents always told me - repression is not good...

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

A Short History of Tractors in Ukraine - music: Badly Drawn Boy, Feist, KT Tunstall, Aimee Man etc.

My first job ...

Babysitting - Uni students take all the part-time jobs in Cambridge...

My best moment ...

I'll tell you when it happens.

My inspiration ...

I don't compare myself to anyone - I do everthing for myself because I want to do the best I can, but I find inspiration from any writer or artist or musician.

I am a European who has lived in Britain all my life, and it seems there are several things the rest of the world has yet to learn about the tea-drinking cricket-loving country. Chavs. Anyone know what one of those is? You might have similar types of people in your own country, and although I am not one for stereotyping having been stereotyped myself countless times, Chavs definitely do exist. A British chav wears jogging suits and hoodies, smokes underage, sleeps around, drives recklessly fast, basically, cares about no one apart from themselves. They enjoy being hoodlums, setting fire to...
