Currently a: bored student and an overly-obsessive Sir Thomas Allen fan XD
Aspiring to be: A historian/novelist...or any career related to writing/or history
Greetings. And welcome to the life/rantings of a random person who enjoys rather random things. =D
I'm currently 19 years old and studying for a BA in History with a minor in European Studies. I'm probably described as the quiet, old-fashioned type who prefers the peace and quiet of a library or cafe by a lake to a disco or bar in the busy suburbs. Fond of mimicking accents and voices, as well as British comedy, wit and satire. I can speak, write and read French though English is the language I'm best at. I know a bit of German too and immensely curious in learning Russian as well. Currently learning new vocab in German and Italian...who knew that operas could be so useful in this respect? =D
I read novels (usually historical, period novels or ones by Kazuo Ishiguro), history and write in my spare time. I also listen to music which include both instrumental and vocal music such as opera (preferably anything sung or related to Sir Thomas Allen). I have an interest in all forms of arts: painting, theatre and music as well as in Napoleonic military uniforms and Regency/Victorian clothing.
Mood theme: 'Sherlock Holmes' ---> Credit and kudos to
