Some things about me

Currently I’m trying to meet new people around where I live, since recently moving here. One of my biggest weaknesses is over-analysing things, and worrying that people will make false assumptions or just not understand *me*. So, to alleviate these stupid fears of mine, here’s some crap about me…….

I’m going to list things, it’ll stop me from whaffling.

• I’m 26. I get ID’d to buy beer. This still amuses me.
• I’m easily amused.
• I have an incredibly diverse music taste. Look > www.lastfm.com/user/mstevenson83
• I can’t work without music on (or relax, or sleep, sometimes!)
• I believe in chivalry, love, romance and passion.
• I will openly discuss any of the above.
• A relaxing night in is candles, bubble bath, wine and a chick flick…..
• ….and yes, I’m straight.
• I’ve made choices in life that I should regret…
• I don’t have regrets.
• Some of my best friends who I confide in, I have never met in person.
• Some of my friends who I do meet in person, I can’t confide in.
• I listen to peoples worries and try and help as much as I can, probably too much at times.
• People do, and always will, confuse me.
• If I can make one person smile a day, then I’m happy. Those who know me will appreciate that this is normally at my expense.
• Job satisfaction and personal enjoyment / development will always come before financial security
• I go for long walks on the beach listening to chill out music. I’ll happily sit on the beach and watch the world go by for hours.
• I’m writing most of these points for reasons I cannot explain, not even to myself.

And in other news…

• I’m a web developer, have been for years. Moving in to Project Management
• If I wake up and don’t want to go to work, I will look for a new job. This has been true for my last two jobs, and I’ll stick to it.
• I love football, drinking, just chilling in a pub and enjoying other peoples company.
• My camera is on me 90% of the time. I don’t claim to be a “photographer”, nor do I ever expect to make any money from my pictures. But I enjoy it.
• I also like spending time alone, but not too much. I’m a firm believer, if you can’t enjoy your own company, you can’t expect others to enjoy either.

People will read this and think “What the fuck”. And I don’t care. I’ve had the most random week,and life is throwing a lot at me at the moment, and it’s made me realise that life is just too short for people to be second guessing and making assumptions.

So that’s that.

“What era are you from”

What Decade Fits Your Personality Best?

My Result: 1940’s

You are the ultimate romantic at heart. You put a high priority on true love, patriotism, and dedication to honor and duty. Whether it be serving your country or serving your family, you have a very hard work-ethic balanced out by your whimsical, dreamy he…art. You are willing to take risks, go where no one has gone before, and you have a sense of pride in everything you do. Just as you are in touch with your inner beauty, you also give just the right amount of focus on your outer beauty— standing out with the latest fashions and getting in touch with your sensual side. Your sexiness is not scandalous but rather classy and poised. You are the envy of those around you because no matter how much tough work you have to do, you keep a smile and look good while doing it.

Hmmmmm. Strangely, I can see where they’re coming from!? hahaha
