About this Member

Erm... 20 years old, 2nd year of Univerisity.

The Masterplan involves getting a highly paid job, working until I'm a millionarre (about 25, hopefully) then quitting to dedicate the rest of my life either to art, music or writing novels. Since I'm crap at art and music, it's going to have to be the 3rd I think...

I apologise for the poor spelling and grammer in my opinions (I do run the longer ones through a spell checker, but it doesn't catch all the mistakes). I did get an A in English A level which either proves that (1) I was really lucky in the exam (2) My spelling and grammer aren't actually that bad or (3) Spelling and grammer aren't important, it's what you say that counts. I suspect (1)...

If you want to read my best work then you should probably read my more recent album reviews or my opinionated rants on stuff like the Monarchy, Napster and McDonalds. Also, I've just written piece of creative writing which forms an op on Capital Punishment.
