Ok... Time to update the profile!

I'm (still) a student - have about three months left in my course. I'm studying English and Media. Ideally, I'd love to write for television, but the way things are going, I'd settle for a job after I graduate! Considering doing an MA next year to put off the transition to the real world for just a little longer.

I adore reading, which is lucky, given that I've so much of it to do for college. Top five books are Catcher in the Rye, Jane Eyre, Atonement, Heart of Darkness and 1984. Favourite contemporary author is Ian McEwan. But I wouldn't consider myself that much of a lit nerd. I enjoy a (good) chick lit book as much as the next person.

Also love television and I'm addicted to buying TV boxsets. I'm currently making my way through 'The Wire' and 'Peep Show'. I also love Six Feet Under, Doctor Who, Torchwood, Being Human, Sugar Rush, Queer as Folk, Lost, Prison Break and I have a soft spot for TV panel shows, especially Mock the Week and QI.

I've recently discovered a bit of an addiction to exercise... In January 09, I started a healthy eating plan and fitness kick and by the middle of February, I'm at the stage where I feel restless if I don't do some sort of exercise every day. I actually felt antsy the other day because I'd done my workout in the morning and didn't have it to look forward to for the rest of the day. Planning on running the Womens Mini Marathon in June, which is 10k so currently training for that.

I also discovered a love of cooking, which is completely new to me. Cooking, for me, for five years was chucking a frozen pizza into the oven. Or maybe whipping up some scrambled eggs. Not making my own soup!

Ok. Now I'm starting to waffle!

For anyone who stumbles across this, do feel free to add me. Don't feel insulted if I don't add you back right away. I tend to procrastinate. A lot.
