About Me
18, moved to England when I was 6 from Nepal. Studying A-level: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, English literature. Screwed up a year due to laziness, so I retook a year, hopefully I have one more year of college left.
A lot of insecurities describes me as a person, always trying to do something new. Recently I have made a lot of personal/emotional break-throughs, partly due to poetry but mostly due to the change in stance in terms of how I cope with my long term problems. Due to this new outlook, I come off a bit intense at the moment, don't let that scare you. :P
Interests -
Fantasy novels (A Song of Ice & Fire being my favourite but I have read A LOT in this genre)
movies (Broad range here, I can enjoy pretty much anything if it's good, though I seem to have had a thing for Korean movies for a while and I disdain 99% of Hollywood movies if it's not watched with mates, good movies: American Beauty, Secret in their eyes, the prophet, one flew over a cuckoos nest, a clockwork orange)
manga (huge addiction, I've read countless)
anime (not so much now)
getting drunk with mates (kinda says it on the tin. Here's a throwaway fact, I peaked early in terms of drinking, when I was 14 I got electrocuted on the rail way because I mistook my limits. I can't even tell you what happened but my friend pulled me off and bunch of lucky coincidences means I am typing here, the only thing that irks me is that I have no recollection, it's almost as if it never happened. Well safe to say drinking wasn't that fun for a couple of years.)
- Lack of experience -
At the moment:
T.S. Eliot is the one identify the most with.
Need to read:
Walt Whitman
Butkowski - (read a few)
