(no subject)
Name: Carrie
Age: 24
Gender: F
Location: West Midlands, England, United Kingdom, Europe, The World.. et al.
Occupation: Not at the moment, alas.
Languages: English, bad Spanish, and about 10 words of Welsh.
Orientation: Straight.
Relationship status: Seeing someone.
Politics: .. is not something I'm wholly interested in.
Religion: Practising Roman Catholic.
Interests: tea, london, collecting postcards, knitting, going to the movies, reading, nature, animals, theme parks, pizza, playing video games, sanrio, time with loved ones, card games, anime, papercraft, gardening, amongst other things.
About me: I am down-to-earth, happy, non-judgemental, helpful, considerate of others, compassionate, and I have a good sense of humor! I am a shy person, but warm up quickly. Once I start talking, you won't be able to stop me.
TV: I don't watch a lot of television, but I do enjoy shows such as The Office (the UK version moreso), Scrubs, IT Crowd, Dexter, House MD, Californication, Fringe, etc.
Films: I like to watch dramas, documentaries, good crime thrillers, and if I'm feeling a bit down then I'll watch something Disney to cheer myself up. Some of my favourite movies are Amelie, Hachiko, Little Miss Sunshine, Enemy at the Gates, Schindler's List, Los amantes del círculo polar, Gone with the Wind, and almost anything starring Christian Bale.
Music: I don't listen to a lot of music, but when I do it alternates between classical, folk, soft rock - depending on my mood and/or current activity. Favourites include Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Leonard Cohen, Joan Baez, Queen, Fleet Foxes, Kate Rusby, The Beatles, and from the classical side I'm very much partial to Bach, Vaughan Williams, Brahms, Mozart, etc. Also, some contemporary music such as Enya, Secret Garden, etc.
Books: Too many to name, but some books/authors I've enjoyed are Neil Gaiman, Harry Potter, His Dark Materials, Barabra Vine, C.S. Lewis, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Terry Pratchett, The Time Traveller's Wife, Stephen King, A Thousand Splendid Suns, Pablo Neruda, etc. I'm always interested in recommendations. :)
