My favourite subject: ME!

[L.A.Matthews]

Okay, this is probably going to be the quietest thread in the whole of the forum...Even next to "I'm an inbred and proud!"

So, ask me something you didn't already know.

[Peace-Phoenix]

Good to see you over at the Karma Kafe, Cunthooks. So, what's your life plan?

[lithium]

Are you actually inbred or do you just look it? :) :tongue:

[L.A.Matthews]

Good to see you over at the Karma Kafe, Cunthooks. So, what's your life plan?
Well, at the moment I've got my pre, and post-university plans all set out.

I'm currently doing English Lit., History, and Film Studies A Levels. Whilst doing them I'm attending short courses in Cardiff university, one of which is an Introduction to the Beat Generation, and after that I'll do some courses on Creative Writing. Thus, leaving me with alot of additional things to put on my Uni. CV, as well as the straight A's I'm working my ass off for.

Then, after going through uni. studying English Lit. and Creative Writing (hopefully Bath Spa, or Birkbeck), I want to go to China to teach English and become a teacher.

Who knows how much this will change, but at the moment I'm working my ass off to achieve this.

...Slightly naive? Maybe.

What do you guys think?

Hahahaha! Jon, I must admit you have some of the wittiest posts on this forum!:tongue:

[L.A.Matthews]

What's wrong with this one?:(

[mudpuddle]

Oh...Nothing!

Just Thinking About Variation...

There is Nothing Wrong with it...

I'd Like to See Some more Pics of you...:)

[ripple]

Any particular reason for wanting to go to China, besides to teach?

[L.A.Matthews]

For the experience.:) I don't want to be stuck in Wales all my life wondering what I could've done with my life, and regretting what I hadn't done with it.:)

[Peace-Phoenix]

What happened to the army plans? And you should check out UEA's MA course for creative writing, it's a great spring board for aspiring writers like yourself....

[L.A.Matthews]

What happened to the army plans?
Come on, who was I kidding? I'm a much more party person.:tongue: I was never right for the Army.

[paulfreespirit]

did you ever get your david cap back ?

[L.A.Matthews]

Yeah, I bought a new one! eBay is a fucking God-send! I bought a lovely new leather jacket off there too.:)

[phoenix_indigo]

Do you know how to speak Mandarian or Cantonese?

Is that class about the Beatniks as cool as it sounds? *snaps fingers*

I can speak a little Mandarin.

Ni hao! Ni hao ma?:tongue:

And yes, that class is as cool as it sounds...And yes, I am the new Generation, all in one person.;)

[lithium]

How would you characterise your political views? Are you a politically minded person?

[L.A.Matthews]

To be honest, I wouldn't know what kind of views I have in a Left/Right wing sense. I'm very tolerant when it comes to other cultures and views, and very much welcome it, although I believe in keeping the heritage of Britain/Wales as a British/Welsh country. Of course, that doesn't stop other cultures coming here, but I think we should pride ourselves in our own culture before welcoming others with open arms.

If that makes sense.

Left Wing, or Right Wing? What do you think?

[lithium]

Why not take the questionnaire on the political compass?:)

[L.A.Matthews]

Apparently I'm close to the views of Ghandi.

The Political Compass
Economic Left/Right: -6.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.87

Jon, tell me what that means, please?:tongue:

[fountains of nay]

chocolate eclair or apple turnover?

[L.A.Matthews]

I've never tried either, but I'll go with the Apple Turnover.:)

[Peace-Phoenix]

So, what made you cut your hair?

[L.A.Matthews]

Well, I had just broken up with my then long-time girlfriend, and I felt like I should change. I was far too immature, which led to the collapse of my relationship. My education and ambition in music was on a fast road to nowhere. So I decided to change my choice of career to something else -- that's when I chose the Army.

The Army, I felt, was a means of escape from my shitty life in Wales, and also something that gave me a belonging feeling. However, at this time I was still immature, and was only kidding myself. This is what led to me cutting my hair.

Not only this, but it was the whole circumstance surrounding it.

[L.A.Matthews]

I want to make some kind of difference to somebody elses life.

[Peace-Phoenix]

If you could change one other thing about yourself, what would it be?

[L.A.Matthews]

Nothing. I have enough pride in everything I am, and my being. It probably comes across arrogant, but if someone thinks that then it's their problem.

[sun_heart_girl]

Ni hao! Zenme yang?

[L.A.Matthews]

Shen me?

Hehe! I speak abit of Mandarin. Isn't that Cantonese?

Ni hao! Ni hao ma, Sun_Heart_Girl?

Hang on...All you said then was "how"?

[sun_heart_girl]

Haha I'm a bit rubbish at Chinese... zui jin zen yang? Is that any better? I used to speak a little but I've forgotten it all :(

[CrucifiedDreams]

Light or dark? :)

[L.A.Matthews]

Dark.:) In context to what though?

[CrucifiedDreams]

Anything really. It says something. :)

Do you have any allergies?

[L.A.Matthews]

I don't, no. I don't even suffer from Hay Fever.:tongue:

[CrucifiedDreams]

Lucky! :)

Ice cream or cake? :P

[L.A.Matthews]

Cake. I actually despise Ice-Cream...I don't understand it.:confused::tongue:

[CrucifiedDreams]

Me too. Well I'm lactose intolerant so I can't eat it :P

Poetry or photography?

[L.A.Matthews]

Poetry. Definitely!:)

[CrucifiedDreams]

Nice.

Where will you go when you die?

[L.A.Matthews]

No idea. I try not to think about death, because I think too deep about it, and then question the meaning of life...It gets confusing.

Lately I've been thinking that everything in life is all in my head and created by my subconscious; a figment of my own imagination. For example, I have no way of proving anyone else exists other than my own mind telling me they do, because if everything is a figment of my imagination that means that so are you, and everyone else. Perhaps I've created this false reality which includes the worlds famine, diseases, politics, et cetera.

Yeah, I think too much about it and then I question my purpose of being, and the only answer I can come up with is nothing: I have no meaning.

[CrucifiedDreams]

You have meaning and a purpose, you'll find it.

What's your happiest moment?

[L.A.Matthews]

Probably whilst on drugs, to be honest.

[CrucifiedDreams]

What's your favourite drug?

[L.A.Matthews]

At the moment it's probably E's and alcohol.:)

[CrucifiedDreams]

What do you try to get out of each day?

[L.A.Matthews]

An understanding of something new.

[CrucifiedDreams]

Have you ever broken a bone?

[L.A.Matthews]

I haven't actually. I've never hurt anything internally.:)

[CrucifiedDreams]

Nice one.

What are your favourite song lyrics and why?

[L.A.Matthews]

I'll tell you a story, but you won't listen,
It's about a nightmare steeped in tradition,
It's a story of a coked up panzy,
who spends his nights through flights of fancy...

- La Belle et La Bête, Babyshambles

It reminds me of myself and my friends.

[ronald Macdonald]

did a 90 pound sack of spuds fall on your face when you were a baby?

[L.A.Matthews]

No. It's just the weight of your fat mothers cunt that did that.

If you were stuck in a lift with Noel Edmonds, what would you do?

[L.A.Matthews]

Hahahaha! That had me smiling for some time.:) Thanks Sal.:tongue:

[L.A.Matthews]

If you were stuck in a lift with Noel Edmonds, what would you do?
Force him to say 'Deal or No Deal?' constantly, and bug him about whether there actually IS a banker on the other end of the phone.:tongue:

It will most likely end with rape.:)

[lithium]

What do you think this fantasy you have of being raped by Noel Edmonds says about you?

[L.A.Matthews]

I like red boxes?:confused:

What do you think it means?:tongue:

[lithium]

Do you think Noel Edmonds is perhaps a symbolic father figure for you, with his grey, very tidy beard and his homely manner? Do you perhaps subconsciously regard being anally raped by the former Radio 1 DJ as a way of reclaiming the love you never received as a child?

why did all those welsh people go to Patagonia?

[L.A.Matthews]

why did all those welsh people go to Patagonia?I think it was something to do with emigration. The Welsh also went over to the U.S and made small communities in Pennsylvania, in the pilgrim of the Quaker's.:)

[mynameiskc]

our rural communities are just crawling with welsh decendants. they also helped found the mormon tabernacle choir. the irish stayed urban, the welsh are country. loads in the south.

and then another woman says hmmmmmm aint that some kind of fancy liquor, and the woman says yeah he sure is and thats my man.
