I am Zoe: FANGIRL, GRAMMAR NAZI, SINGER, PAGAN, NYMPHOMANIAC. That's most of what you need to know right there.
I currently study English at King's College London.

Whatever happened to the funky race?
A generation lost in pace
Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?
In this kiss I'll change your bore for my bliss
Let go of my hand and it will slip on the sand
If you don't give me the chance
to break down the walls of attitude
I ask nothing of you
not even your gratitude
And if you think I'm corny
then it will not make me sorry
It's your right to laugh at me
and in turn that's my oppurtunity
to feel brave
Because ridicule is no shame
Oh, it's just a way to eclipse hate
It's just a way to put my back straight
Oh, it's just a way to remain sane
Every morning I would see her getting off the bus
The picture never drops, it's like a multicoloured snapshot
stuck in my brain
It kept me sane for a couple of years
as it drenched my fears
of becoming like the others
who become unhappy mothers
and fathers of unhappy kids
and why is that?
'Cos they've forgotten how to play
Oh, maybe they're afraid to feel ashamed
to seem strange, to seem insane
to gain weight, to seem gay
I tell you this
That it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, in this world all covered up in shame
I'll take you to the stage
So, take it to the stage in a multicoloured jacket
Take it jackpot, crackpot, strutting like a peacock
Nail varnish Arkansas, shimmy-shammy feather boa
Crackpot, haircut, dye your hair in glowing red and blue
Do, do, do what you wanna do
Don't think twice, do what you have to do
Do, do, do, do, let your heart decide
what you have to do
That's all there is to find
'Cos it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, in this world all covered up in shame
- It takes a fool to remain sane (The Ark)
Who I'd like to meet:
A whole bunch of fictional characters.
Joss Whedon.
Also, your mum.
Hello - Ed here. Sorry we've been so quiet for so long. The Shakes had to call it a day. In the end the it just got too much for us all to carry on. Thanks for supporting us.
I didn't want to stop making music though, so I've spent the last year writing and recording with a singer called Amber and the 2 of us have got a new band together. have a listen:
hey hun, the photos you posted on my site didnt work - what were they of? hope you got home ok last night, thanks for coming with me i had lots of fun :) xxxxxx
Thanks for coming down last Friday, was great to see you! YES a full copy of Mental Notes can be arranged, at some point soon - have to sort a few things out first though...
If you're around on Tuesday (26th) we are playing at the Vibe Bar on Brick lane, and we'll be playing loooaads of new songs there!

Add my uncle's band 'Wulffengrimm' on myspace music. he's the one with the long-ish hair who plays percussion... they're friends with the mediaval baebes how cool??!
I see you've found the latest incarnation of the bay brother, RoadRunner. The Jetkings died a death last autumn, and we've been better than ever since, doing well.
What you been up to? Slasher Mary still together?
Alex, RoadRunner. x
Nice one. glad you liked the tunes. Did you catch us at The Dublin Castle, seeing as we played with Seeing Scarlet who are on your profile...? Hope all's good
xEd
Lol! I name and shame the following friends who didn't approve of project porno!!!

Hey Zoe!
I haven't seen you with black hair. This kind of upsets me, so as soon as there is free time (probably not until half term sadly) I'm going to jump on the nearest First Capital Connect wagon I see and come visit. I was thinking about you this evening because I watched Jane Eyre on TV and wanted someone to share the Rochester love I'm feeling right now.
