Music
I decided my big list of bands/artist was way out of date and could not be bothered to update. So instead:
My tastes are very varied, I never dismiss an entire genre, I rarely dismiss a band/artist (Greenday are an exception *grrr hates*- but I like "When september ends" a bit). I am open to any music life throws at me. My favourite types of music are very probably, but not exclusively, Rock (and its sub-genres); Celtic; Christian; Electro (et al). I would not claim to like all artists in these genres however.
I generally enjoy unusual stuff and, as a musician, like things that show musical prowess and talent and stuff that I can tell has had a lot of work put into it. I like bands/artists that break between the genres and mix things to create new sounds. You can never be totally original, it is impossible; but the most original sounds are made by mixing things together.
If you have something you think I may like from reading this, or, just as much, something you suspect I will not like, then please show me as I am always keen to discover new things.
My favourite Bands/Artists are:
Fire fly Exoria Muse MIKA David Gray ..and some more I cannot remember :)
Movies
I find it so hard to make these lists without forgetting so many.
I like films that are clever. As a drama student and very amateur film-maker, I like to see things that inflame my interest and inspire me. I like clever and funny films. My favourite genres are probably: Comedy; Drama; Horror; Kids but I enjoy alsorts.
My favourite films are "About a Boy" and "Stardust".
Television
As I said in films; it is hard for me to compile lists that are even remotely encompassing of my faves.
My Favourite TV show is "Doctor Who", both new and old I have loved it since I was about five.
My favourite types of shows are:
Comedy such as "Simpsons".
Sci-Fi such as "Doctor Who" and "Star Trek"
Sit. Com. such as "Dinnerladies" and "Blackadder"
Sketch Shows such as "Monty Python" and "Victoria Wood: ASOTV"
Comedy Quizzes such as "Never Mind the Buzzcocks" and "Have I got news for you"
Drama such as "Ugly Betty"
I also enjoy political and news shows such as "Panorama" and "Breakfast". "Jeremy Kyle" is my guilty pleasure (the show not him).

This is my amazing girlfriend Lizzie. She makes me smile every time I even think about her. I just want to make her smile every day. She is beautiful and funny and loving and she isn't afraid to tell me off when I need it :0. She is the most special girl in the world.

Some of my bestest friends:
James (aka Jaymez): Has been my friend for over 4 years now; he is such an individual and always makes me smile. We have our own little humour and it sometimes leaves other people behind. James means a lot to me and I hope we are still great friends in many years to come.
Kara: Kara is such a special person, I have never met anyone with such an absolute sense of right and wrong and who doesn't care what people think when she tells them about it. She can be a bit ditsy sometimes but she and her family mean more to me than I could say.
Sophie (aka Sofu): I don't see or speak to Sophie nearly as much as I would like but when we do talk it is like we spoke the other day. I can talk to her for hours and we both find the most random things funny. I know that we will stay in touch for a long time and will always be friends.
