angelofboox Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) I have a feeling lots of this has been covered in my introductory thread but here goes: Birthday: 21st January '89 Age: 19 Starsign: Aquarius Single/Married/Other? I have a boyfriend. He's Scottish. Children? Goodness no. Not yet. Where do you live? I live in Ilford, a place with an identity crisis. It's in East London but the address says Essex. However, currently for the majority of the year I live in Central Manchester, what with university being there. I also spend time in Edinburgh, where my boyfriend lives. Do you work? I'm a student, and a lazy one at that. In the upcoming holidays I'll be working in an architecture firm. Favourite author? This question is far too hard. Favourite book(s)? Rebecca, His Dark Materials, Harry Potter, You Don't Know Me, Alice In Wonderland, The Phantom Tollbooth...etc. Quite a long list. How did you get here? By avoiding work and Googling.
