My name is Rob. I like toast, spaghetti bolognese, and sleeping.
I also like playing a guitar. Sometimes slow, and sometimes fast. Sometimes
quiet and sometimes loud. I like playing a guitar.
I go to lots of concerts. Sometimes, when there are lots of people in the
concert, and it's very noisy, I say a secret out loud, to get it off my chest.
People just think I am singing along with the words.
Sometimes I am nice, sometimes I am horrible. The most horrible thing I did was
when I was 11. I was in some woods with my friend. We heard a little boy crying
and calling out for his mum. My friend and I put on high pitched lady voices and
called out to him, but moved whenever he came near us. Then we thought we might
get in trouble if his real mum heard us so we ran out of the woods. When we got
out, a police car stopped and a lady who was crying got out and asked us if we
had seen a little lost boy in a blue t-shirt. Although we hadn't actually seen
him, we knew it was him. Because we were scared of the police car, We said we
hadn't seen him and ran home. To this day I tell myself the woods weren't very
big and 3 grown adults could easily find a crying child before a pervert did.
The nicest thing I did was when I was 20. It was midnight and I had just dropped
my friend home. I was driving to my house when I saw a lady on the pavement
curled in a ball. I stopped the car and watched her shaking for about 10
minutes. Thinking it might be some kind of trap where I end up getting beaten up
and mugged, I drove on. But worry got the better of me and I drove back. I
crouched beside her and asked if she was ok, she wasn't. She had been kicked out
by her drug addict boyfriend, she had no money and didn't know where she was.
She had lots of problems. I told her I was about to buy chips, and asked if she
wanted to come for the ride, so she did. We ate our chips in my car, and I asked
her what she was going to do, she said she didn't know. I said she could sleep
round my house for the night and have a bath too if she liked. I saw her smile
for the first time, and she said yes. We got back and finished our food at mine
and talked about stuff for ages, I was determined to cheer her up. At about 5
am, I got her some bedding for the sofa, and went to bed myself. When I woke up,
she had had her bath, so I made us both coffee, we talked some more, and I asked
where she needed to get to. She told me she was going to stay with her sister,
so I worked out what trains she needed to get, and drove her to the station, and
gave her some money for the train. We swapped mobile numbers and said we would
keep in touch. The following night I wondered if she got there ok. I called but
no one answered, whenever I called, no one ever answered. I gave up after a
while. I still wonder where she is and what she's doing.
I like: London in the winter, laughing so hard my face hurts, hot baths, no
lines at the supermarket, getting mail, hearing my favourite song on the radio,
lying in bed listening to the rain outside, hot towels out of the dryer,
chocolate milkshake, conversation, the beach, finding money in my coat from last
winter, running through sprinklers, laughing for absolutely no reason at all,
laughing at an inside joke, friends, accidentally overhearing someone say
something nice about me, waking up and realizing I still have a few hours left
to sleep, making new friends or spending time with old ones, swinging on swings,
road trips, song lyrics printed inside a CD so I can sing along without feeling
stupid, really good concerts, making eye contact with a cute stranger, running
into an old friend and realizing that some things (good or bad) never change,
riding the best roller coasters over and over, watching the expression someone's
face as they open a much-desired present from me, and watching the sunrise.
I don't like: Racism, stupid people, having to get up early, being too hot in a
place I want to have fun, homophobia, people with bad manners, boring films,
being really busy, water getting up my nose, putting too much salt on food by
mistake, cereal in the cupboard but no milk on the fridge, awkward silences,
graffiti, lager louts, taking a swig from a bottle thinking its diluted squash
when it hasn't been diluted yet, stepping in dog poo, paper cuts, and
embarrassing memories.
I hope this tells you everything you need to know about me.
Oh my word... Thank you, in a way. I can't keep that up there...to see, to plead, can Nat be porn? I didn't get up until 9 so I'll drop the sausages and bike chain off when I get back, at about 2.30/3. I'll probably ring you at some point in my break anyway...speak soon! :) xxx
I'm in the flat for a little while. Had a tutorial, got a bus back here, and just before half one I'm off again, to register, get my computer ID, etc.
Then I'll be coming back, and then going to meet you - lots of travelling today! I'll have finished Northern Lights by the time I see you!
I fancy meeting you at work, is that okay? If uni takes too long, it'll have to be London Bridge but hopefully..I'll send you a little texty at some point, cos I've discovered 11p on my Virgin phone, let you know what's going on
I've been playing around with photoshop and gave vectoring a go...thought I'd show you it so far - it isn't finished but isn't looking too bad for a first attempt
