About Me:
Let's start from the beginning, {and if you're thinking, '****... she's gonna start ranting on about her life now', tough-toenails cause you're the one who clicked on my profile}. Born on the 16th of November 1991- which means my D.O.B. is 16/11/91 and if you write it down, then turn the paper upside-down, the date will still stay the same. Little bit of useless trivia there, but it also means that I'm spawn of Lucifer.
I live in Wales. My first language is Welsh and I speak fluent English and my French isn't too bad. I live with my parents, 3 younger siblings, dog and chickens in a detached C18 house by the sea in a village called Morfa Nefyn.
I'm a bit of an awkward prat, but you'll get used to it. I mumble way too much and still haven't mastered the art of proper eye-contact yet, so basically your average teenager. I hate pretentious people, feet, saliva and phlegm. I love old movies, Tom Waits [going to see him perform in Dublin 30th of June!], the smell of tarmac after rain, power-cuts, thunderstorms and heavy rain- but not so much wind, a good book, Earl Grey tea (none of this new annoying Starbucks-sipping "I'm so sophisticated, I drink Mocha-frappa-******-chinos" culture), long walks on deserted beaches while listening to my iPod and gazing wisely out to sea, traveling, playing sad songs on the Pia-pia-pia-no and Guitar, but most of all, I love...
you.

Favorite Quotes:
Fevrale dostat chernil i plakat,
Pisat O Fevrale navsnryd,
Poka grohochushaya slyakot
Vesnoyu charnoyu gorit.
(February. Get ink, shed tears.
Write of it, sob your heart out, sing,
While torrential slush that roars
Burns in the blackness of the spring.)
- Boris Pasternak
*
There was never any good old days
They are today, they are tomorrow
It's a stupid thing we say
Cursing tomorrow with sorrow
- Eugene Hutz

Hola! mmmh, most of the people i told about going to Belgium say i'll be bored there... hope you're not right :P i guess i'll have a good time just being out of Mexico, lol.
You've never opened that little trap-door??? how come?? i'm a very very curious person so probably i would have already done it, lol, there must me something interesting upstairs!! Maybe you find some antique treasure ;D
I already know who i'll be working with, it's a small family with only 2 little boys that i expect behave as nicely as possible, hahaha. They're 2 and 4 y.o., and they spend most of their day at school... i'll be taking dutch lessons and hopefully i'll find some other activity to do during the day, otherwise, belgium will be as plain as everyone says it is :S

That's cool, a good four choices :) I took Psychology, History, Law and English Literature. Eng lit is absolutely fantastic. Law was great in the first year, but the second year was a little boring. It was contract law, so there were just hundreds of cases to learn and memorise.
I took an Archaic Greek module last year which was really good, looking at the archaic politics, social systems, wars etc; just about everything! It was certainly very interesting. Crete will be lovely!
I went to Amsterdam last week and am going to Rome next wednesday, may pop to Athens in late July/early September too.
Hope you're well,
John

Ahh that's cool, I only starting learning Latin when I went to university. It takes time, but once you know all the basic grammar rules, conjugations and declensions it's just a matter of knowing the vocab.
Yea uni is going really well, the course is tough but stimulating. So I guess you'll be studying your A levels come September?

Wow, living in an old house must be kinda creepy too!! can you imagine all the things that happened there before you lived there? i'm not trying to freak you out, hahaha, but it must be interesting...
I was studying english literature but it wasn't really my thing, so i quitted a few months ago. The only problem is that i have no idea of what else i'd like to study, lol, so, in the meanwhile i'm going to Belgium to work as a nanny :P i'm leaving in about a month, i'm so excited about that!! Hope you're having a nice weekend,
Dany
