I love being a geek



I love playing genius trivial pursuit with my friends (our style).

I love deciding to go see films late at night.

I love winning at monopoly.

I love playing video games until the early hours.

I love doing quizzes, even though I'm rubbish at them.

I love cooking dinner and staying in and just chatting.

I love not smoking, and I'm coming around to not drinking

I love collapsing on friends sofas and watching obscure films.

I love playing scrabble (Lindsey always wins).

I love being helpful, be it working the bar, peeling apples, looking after children.



I love going out, going to parties, going to shows, but sometimes staying in with friends can be so good. I feel so exhausted, but in a good way.



Sometime soon I do need to get out though. I haven't seen enough of a lot of people and I miss them.
