Interests: play violin, oboe, drums, sing, write some songs occasionally, listen to music and doccument my thoughts about songs and albums, read Q, watch greys anatomy, the OC and desperate houswives :D .. cycle and run and swim (i have my first triathlon in a few months), dance alone in my room, play with my 3 dogs, eat , bake, read harry potter .. hehe.. i like history and polotics although i don't know too much i like to suck all the information i can get from other people :) anything to do with music ... and i have to study, but it's not really an interest. I used to play tennis and soccer. I play in an orchestra and three bands (like geeky bands, my drumming and singing isn't really good enough to be in a band yet.. maybe it is.. but i don't know cus i'm pretty shy about that.. certainly nobody has every seen any of my own songs) and plus you have to be 'in' to be in a band where i live, and since i'm such a wierd one, i'm not in a band.

Music taste: anything that i like really. imogen heap.. we have something in common.. bloc party, kings of leon, nerina pallot, youth group, i'm sure like most ppl on this site i have a tonne of artists on my ipod so to name them all would be boring. Travis, keane, all the older ones and newer ones.. it's easier to say what i don't like. Anything that has the alphabet recited in it, or words spelled out is a NO, anything comercial really, most rap and hip hop 'xept sov (lady sov) cus she's COOL :D indie, rock, alternative and punk are all good for me, but i like songs that are hard to like and you have to try to get into.. anything to easy to listen too isn't really worth your while i think. I used to like watcing MTV but it seems that most ppl vote for pussy cat dolls for number one, which kills me cus .. lets say i'm not really a fan ...

Anything else?: I definately want a job in the music buisness.. i won't say that i want to be a musician cus then ppl think that i want fame and all that crap , which i don't because i like being private person, like on the net, with no name or face for ppl to look at. i feel really sorry for musicians with there faces (generally other parts of there body tho, that they would probobly prefer ppl didn't pass judgement on) plastered across magazine covers.. it's really sad that ppl do that to them.. plus if u say u want to be a musician ppl think that ur really up yourself and that you think your amazing.. it's just that i think i'm good and though my voice isn't FANTASTIC it's better than some ppl that have reacords out at the moment (not to mention anyone in particular)...but there is so much chance in it that i probobly won't do it .. in which case writing for a music magazine would be fab, or at the very least working at Glastonbury .. selling drinks or something .. JK.. btw, you should know that i have never downloaded music and all the music i have on my pod i have on cd.
