I only ever saw myself ten years older, with the same family and friends I had then, but times changed and how can I be expected to accurately predict the actions of myself and others which lead to q conclusion ten years in the future. At six, I always wanted to be a bird. Daring to soar higher than mountains, to rediscover the thrill of the hunt guided by natural instinct and to be free. Now that I have finally realised what it is I want to be, I admit I am a little afraid in taking the first steps. Should you ask me what I want to be when I grow up, if for that matter. I would respond a thinker. Something relating to the trail of thought, explosive and contaigous energy of ideas and daring to dream has me captivated. I had a hatred for being asked that question.

Came to uni at 17, to study law. In law it is expected you will have your entire career planned out before you graduate, down to who you wish to practice under and where you will be when you're 40, 50, and so on. Because I have SO much idea of that. Feel this very frequently. Came to uni at 17, to study law.

I achieved that. It still makes those I left behind angry! As a child, I wanted to escape the place I lived and the people that surrounded me. I achieved that.

My dreams at age 5 or 6 had only one thing in common with my act at age 18: I wanted starships. I ended up on submarines, closest thing I could find. Then I got into printing presses, then (as now) I fix computers... Closest thing I managed to the stars is Star Wars roleplaying games. Cue up Barenaked Ladies, ‘Everything to Everyone’.

Just kidding. I certainly hope people carry away lasting impressions from me, from this site, from other things I make and do. Are you saying I am going to explode?

Everyone who meets you carries something of you away. Even your body is constantly replacing its own particles, and the matter that comprises you today will be all over the world ten years from now.
