I'm in my last year of uni and I am currently writing my dissertation on free internet distribution as an alternative to the major record companies, to accompany this I am writing, recording and mixing an album to release for free on the internet.
I am a big fan of films, video games, music and books. I wasted my summer dating a damaged woman who kept her crazy secret and I just had bacon, waffles and beans for breakfast, yum!

I'm 18, not yet in college, and I probably won't be until late next year. This is due to me needing a lot of medical tests and procedures done in the next few months, I figure I'd get it done now, rather than deal with it when I'm actually in college.

I like games, filmmaking, and a bit of writing, I'm currently reworking a script I wrote for a movie I hope to put in production in a few years, it's a low budget, independent film, but the script is solid.

I can't drive, I'm single and I've always been single, and I'm likely to always be single, I have people problems.I also have a really messed up sleep cycle.
I'm strangely unphased by all this, though.

I'm 18, live in t' Yorkshire and like many people in t' Yorkshire I'm not working, but unlike many people in t' Yorkshire I'm working my arse off looking for work and have an interview on Thursday...
Been with my boyfriend for 15 months now and we recently moved in together.
I know my alphabet in sign language and always leave a bit of tea in the bottom of the cup. Only met one other person who does that.
I do that too, maybe it's a northern thing?

I'm 17, in my last year of 6th Form. I don't know how that translates to our American friends. Completed AS in English Lit and Art&Design (Fine Art), taking Biology and Psycholoy AS levels. I have a part time job, I don't really like it, but I like money and I know I won't get another decent job if I quit. I'm not going to University, but I'm hoping to start an Apprenticeship next summer.
My parents divorced when I was younger, I live with my mum, brother and sister. We get along okay. We have 3 cats and 2 kittens, although 2 of the cats are kind of strays. I have a pet snake and my brother has a tarantula.
I like music, cute things, gaming, drawing, writing and singing. I also like going out with my friends.

I'm an 18 year old Australian male. I live with my mum and step-dad, and I work full time as a computer salesman. I make decent money, and I plan to go to university next year to begin my studies to become a psychologist. I'm a narcissistic asshole, but I'm also kind of altruistic (moral superiority, fuck yeah). I had Depression for about a year and a half a little while ago, but I've conquered it. That's why I want to be a psychologist.

I love Blizzard, Bethesda and Bioware, and I cannot stand anime or manga. I am very passionate about Coca-Cola, and I can't be friends with people who prefer Pepsi.

That's a few things.

I'm a 20 year old female living in the UK.

I'm currently in college, studying a National Diploma in Public Uniformed Services - when I finish the course, I'm either going to go to University and study something like Criminology or try and go straight into the Police from there. My aim is to end up as either a Crime Scene Investigator or a Police Dog Handler, depending on what my living situation is when I get the option to specialize.

My appearance (personality-wise) is misleading, perhaps due to the ignorance of the people I've met. They falsely believe me to be fairly one-sided; childish and introverted. Those who actually bother to pay attention to what I have to say learn that I am also mature (when the occasion calls for it), brutally honest, and somewhat insightful. I do have a heart, as much as I like to convince my friends otherwise, but I am very cautious about who I give it to. I like to believe I am delightfully strange.

When gaming, my preferred agenda is anything RPG-shaped, or simply popping zombie heads.

I'm not entirely sure what else to say. D:
What part of the UK do you live in?
I live in Bristol and I love it here, the music scene is second to none!

I'm 20, female and from the UK. Finished a two year course in Animal Care earlier this year only to realise I'd rather work with books. Now I would one day like to own my own book shop, which means going back to college and doing a course in Business Studies. Currently working part time in the pet department of a garden centre and enjoying it.

I'm into several different anime/manga (including Full Metal Alchemist, Code Geass, Death Note and to some degree Naruto). I enjoy playing games, mainly JRPGs and platformers (big fan of Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy). Not a big fan of FPSs as I suck at them. Now getting back into World of Warcraft and starting to play DnD as well.

I am a huge bookworm and spend at least two hours a day reading. I love fantasy books and murder mysteries. The Dresden Files and Skulduggery Pleasant are my fave series, with David Eddings The Belgariad coming close behind. There two whole shelves in my room of unread books and I'm working my way through them. Currently reading The Earthsea Quartet; on the last book and throughly enjoying it.

Lastly, I also enjoy watching fantasy, comedy and some action movies (The Lord of the Rings are and always will be my faves). Also I love Disney films, especially Pixar and am currently obssessed with Bolt. I listen to alot of heavy rock music but do enjoy some other genres too. I love to sing along, and have been told I have a good singing voice. Anything else you wanna know just ask =p

I'm a Fourteen year old Male who has been programming for Four years and Developing games with the Source engine for a year. People often claim my age is bullshit and I'm not a day under Seventeen. I read a book of a Thousand pages when I was Ten, in under a month. I was so fidgety when I was younger they assumed I had ADHD, they were wrong. I've been in French schools for over Ten years now. And I once made a physics engine with a childs "Drag-And-Drop" programming language.

I'm 15 and in my second year of highschool. I keep an 80 average and I'm thinking of studying Criminology or some kind of phycology. I think My only real motivation to do well is because the world says I won't. (Being an narsasistic kid who plays video games and has a habit of not studying/doing homwork) In my spare time I'm part of a Venturer Company and Ranger Unit. I also Take sining lessons and play Trumpet in two school bands and sing in a third.

I'm a 24-year-old ecologist from England specialising in reptiles, bats and birds. I share a flat with a mate, have a mortgage, a bar and a massive fish tank. I play acoustic guitar, play pc games, love squash, football and rugby and read an unhealthy amount of books (unhealthy because if my current reading pile fell over I doubt my body would be recovered). My ambitions are to become an expert im my field, release some of my music and to write at least one book.

Maybe. The other girl who I knew did was a Northerner too. I do it because I'm scared I;ll choke on the last little bit, didn't really know about her.

Dude, you live so close to me, it's not even funny. x_X;

I live in Bath. Not far away at all - less than 10 miles, I believe?

The music scene here is good, considering the size of the city.. We have one dedicated 'alternative' pub (the Hobgoblin) and then one 'alternative' themed club night (Discord).

Unfortunately, my college timetable says I'm not allowed to attend Discord anymore, unless for some reason I'm off college that week. Sucks, really.

My name is Jonny. I'm 16 and currently in my first year of (the UK version) of College.
I'm taking: Maths statistics, electronics, computing and philosophy. I was also interested in psychology and physics, since physics was the only thing I ever got an A* in.
I like the simple rules of these subjects and how they build together as opposed to something like English. But, I do like philosophy and psychology because I like to dip into people's minds.

I've lived in the same house in West Sussex in South East England, 40 miles from London, in the countryside, my entire life.

In my younger years I thought of being an inventor because my mind mostly works in the way that unless you tell me logically that something can or can't be done I may not believe it until I try it myself. But now I am basically being pigeon holed for Game Designing because of my obvious hobby. Have a few ideas, but apart from finding good ways to put things into practise, and the constant complete flukes I make in being able to string story together, i am terrible at breaking the mold of characterisation, as most of the main characters are better versions of me. I'd like to join the business just so I could hope to do things like fix certain series I believe have gone astray.

I'm about 6 foot tall. Skinny with a noticable belly when I sit down. Blue eyes, Long bedhead dark ginger hair. Wear glasses. Basic nerd.

I find that I have a rather large mass of negative traits that however bad I love about myself. Sadism, emotional masochism, misanthropy, narcissism, low self esteem.
I also have ADHD and Asperger's syndrome.
I am also the master at conflicting opinions and traits, thus the origin of my username; Paladin+Demon.

I also consider myself to be (for a lack of better phrase) hopeless romantic, being single all my life and after all the childhood mocking, really wanting someone who thinks of me as their favourite and would pick me above all others. This is pretty much my only goal in life.
In this way I see relationships in a more serious way than most other people and tend to over ananlyse things. And since I've always been single and the only girl I ever had reasonable feelings for, rejecting me, I have never been brought down to Earth with relationships and therefore have high standards of what is to be my 'perfect' person in ways of personality.


...too much?


EDIT: Oh yeah, and I like english dubbed anime and giant robots.

I'm 22, a former dropout from a private Baptist college and now attending a public university. I've been unemployed for 4 months, my car died right before I moved into my apartment, and my parents are too poor to give me any financial help, but I still enjoy life whenever I can. I'm an English major, former Practical Theology major. I was born in Brazil, raised in China, Jr. High in Costa Rica/Venezuela but I still consider myself American even though most of my life has been in other places. I love reading, and tend to be quite competitive at stuff I know I'm good at. As for the future, I have no idea what I'm going to do, but I try to stay open to whatever may come.

Well, I turn 20 on Saturday. I'm a college student studying medicine, but lately I have been having doubts and might change to something else. At the moment, I'm taking the semester off to work. Unfortunately, it's a terrible, demeaning, soul-destroying job with some of the worst customers this side of the Sahara, but the pay is decent enough for me to keep working there. Right now, there are few things I enjoy, talking to certain people, driving, video games, reading. Other than that, there is nothing else. My job does not give me any free time. I haven't even had a weekend off in almost 2 months. I'm not sure in what direction I should go in my life, and I question my purpose here almost every day. But, there are so many people I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks about this. I've been living here in Costa Rica for over a year, and I gotta say...I love it here. But, I'm still moving back home to finish studying.


I don't know what else to say.
