A few of my favourite thangs include; warm weather, reggae reggae reggae, good food, nights in, nights out, snow, lightening, warm bed, tea- two sugars, good friends, films that make me scared to walk around my house alone, computer games, my car whos called Adam, bacon, tomato sauce, the sea side, body boarding, poi.. and a number of other things which i can't remember because i have no memory.
Music
I like a huuuuge variety of music, and im completely ok with the fact that a lot of it is generally considered shit by many. Bring on the 90's pop, cheesey garage, jungle, reggae, dub, dub-step, ragga, rnb, soul,disco, motown, funk, punk, indie, hip hop, ska,rock. Just whatever floats my boat.
Movies
The sweetest thing, wanted, the guyver series, 3x3 eyes, the austin powers trilogy, haha i love a good disney film, the eye, the ring, its a boy girl thing (!), garden state, tank girl, from dusk till dawn, the ace venturas, the american pies, most adam sandler films, love a bit of jackie chan- got sooo many of his classic films..Im generally very versatile with films :-)
Television
I tend to watch mind-numbing entertainment usually provided by channel 4 and co. However, i love documentaries such as anything involving david attenborough, space or animals.
Books
his dark materials were quaaality, and fiona walker's colections are also brilliant :o)
Heroes
I don't have any. I just have very strong feelings for Davina McCall, Bruce Willis and Will Smith
.
Where to start really..Things have changed a lot lately. Im Hannah and all i really wanna do wtih myself these days is go on adventures to random places- usually with kirstie, vikki or silk, work in that lovely little aquatics shop, sit by that lake, get my work done and have a good dance at the weekends.
I suppose, like a lot of people, im now just out to find out who i am and enjoy every last bit of it.
