My poetry is not my forte, it's the music that is (or music that I want it to be). I am a music student in Edinburgh. I haven't written much recently at all and now my writing is more sporadic than ever.

I have just about finished going through my poems, deleting the rubbish angsty poems I used to write and keeping my better or important poems (to me). I have also changed some of my old (well, most of them) poems and I think I have made an improvement. I hope if you read some, you will enjoy them. Thanks.

I love art, whether it be paintin, drawing or going to an exhibition. I also love films such as "If...;" "Donnie Darko;" "American Beauty;" "Philadelphia;" "Robin Hood: Men in Tights;" I've started to fall in love with Woody Allan films, "The Secretary" etc.
I adore tv shows like "The Wire," "The Sopranos," "Six Feet Under," (well almost anything that HBO has done) and "Arrested Development."
