I'm 18 years old and I go to
The Arnewood 6th Form
about 2miles from where I live.
There I take

and ^@Math.^@
Although I have chosen such fanciful subjects the
sciences also fascinate me and one of my favourite
sites on the net is the one at NASA, where they tell
you the recent news about whats going on with
the space station Mir and the space probe that landed
on Mars. Displayed are loads of weird
and wondeful pictures of the planets, stars, nebulae.

I love to read, my whole bedroom is like a minature
library, full of Science Fiction, mostlyStar Trek,
Fantasy, a few Asimovs, Virginia Andrews,
and various others. I'm just getting back in to
Terry Prattchet novels, I tried reading Wyrd
Sisters when I was 11 and I totally didn't get it,
so a few months ago I dug it out of the heep
under my bed and reread
it and now I'm hooked on the DyscWorlde.

I've got a bit of a thing for Dragons, I have artwork
and posters of these mythical beasts dotted over the
place and I've read all of Anne McCaffrey's Pern series.
I don't know what it is about them, I guess it could be
that there are so many wonderful artists
and authors that they pique my interest.

As I have already sort of mentioned I am a fan of Trekkie,
my favourite is Deep Space Nine, closely followed by Voyager.
I think I like the series' because of my interests in space,
NASA and Out There in general.

The Trek site at Paramount is amazing, even if
you're not really that into Trek you should go there,
they've done it up all posh and there's even a little screen PADD.

I love Pre-Raphaelite art, it's the romantic style in which
they paint I find so alluring. Out of all of them I think my
favourite artist is a toss up between Dante Gabriel Rossetti
and Edward Burne-Jones. My favourite place to be on a
Saturday morning (except bed) is at the Southampton Art
Gallery where they have Burne-Jones' work of Perseus
(you know, the story about the boy getting flying shoes
and chopping off Medusa's head) The right is Rossetti's
Proserpine, she's holding that pomegranet because she
just took a bite out of it in the Underworld and as legend
goes if you taste anything from Hades you are doomed to
stay there forever. Left to her is Spirit of the Summit,
I don't know if there is a story to go with this picture
but its one of my favourites anyway.
