Ok, some stuff about me then:
I come from Ledbury in the 'Shire (Herefordshire to all you non-'Shire folk), but I'm currently living in Cheltenham.
More 'Shire folk:

I've just finished 3 years at Reading University (Yay for the Studenty life and friends from Uni); where I was meant to be studying 'English and Film & Theatre' - not as much of a doss ourse as it sounds

I like to think of myself as a fairly laid back, easy to get on with kinda person, however I am prone to attacks of hyperactivity (never feed me chocolate before about 11am) where I can become a bit of a fruit loop; I'm usually a fairly happy, open person, 'though,like everyone, I do have the occasional bad day.
Family and Friends are important to me, and I think I've got some pretty amazing ones (both family and friends)

Films are probably my biggest passion; I love talking about them, I love studying them, I love watching them and I love making them. I've been known in the past to spend an entire day in the cinema and have been described by a friend as a walking version of IMDB. I love to act, even though I'm nowhere near the best and I probably don't do it enough. I'm a firm believer that a good story, well told, can be one of the most powerful things ever created; that said, a film doesn't have to be Oscar-material for me to enjoy it; often some of the best films are one's where you can just sit back, relax and enjoy it without having to think to hard about it. I also have a bit of a weakness for horror films.

I also love music; my music taste is quite eclectic, with everything from indie to classical, from the manufactured & managed pop/rock, to unsigned and out there. Some of my favourite artists incluse Rufus Wainwright, Teddy Thompson, Imogen Heap, Greenwheel, Lifehouse and The Walkmen. I'll listen to anything once, and it's rare that I truly dislike a song.

Also, some have accused me of being a TV Junkie; am actually not that big of a TV watcher, 'though I do have a few shows that I get far too overexcited about, so beware of getting me into a conversation about; 'Veronica Mars', 'Lost' or 'Battlestar Galactica' (you may be there for some time!)

Dislikes; All the usual poncy student stuff like inequality, narrow minded people, 'celebrity' reality shows, and chavs ETC. But also Swans, never trust Swans, Swans are BAD! (As are clowns). I intensely dislike people who do not give others a fair chance, and people who judge people based around their race/gender/religion/sexuality/age as I don't believe that what a person is necessarily dictates who they are.
That is pretty much all the basic stuff about me, however a page can only tell you so much about a person; after all, as a wise lady once said 'my life [like this page] is a work in progress...'

My Favourite Quotes:
From Firefly:
Wash:Telepathy? That sounds like something out of science fiction!
Zoe: Darling, you live on a spaceship!
From Veronica Mars:
True love stories never have endings
-From fortune cookie
Veronica:It's all fun and games until one of you gets my foot up your ass!
Veronica: Hi, Dad.
[beat]
Veronica: Their case is fuzzy and circumstantial.
Keith: [to Cliff] You know the odd thing? Those were also her very first words.
From Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind:
Joel: Constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating!
From Donnie Darko:
Donnie: You are such a fuckass.
Elizabeth: Did you just call me a fuckass? You can go suck a fuck.
Donnie: Oh, please, tell me Elizabeth, how exactly does one suck a fuck?
