Hello, I'm pretty new to wikipedia, and have just started to use it seriously after a brief incident involving an Octo-Sloth and some disgruntled wikipedians. I look forward to adding more 'sensible' articles to wikipedia.


Intrests

[edit]

Computer Games
Way to many to be good for me: Half-Life series (especialy Half-Life 2 and Half-Life: Opposing Force), Halo: Combat Evolved series, Counter strike, Rise of Legends, Homeworld 2, Garry's Mod, Splinter Cell series, Darwinia (computer game), Star Wars Battlefront II, Unreal Tournament 2004 and Aliens versus Predator 2, just to name a few.

Entomology
I think insects are the most fascinating things on the planet, I particularly like social insects like ants, termites, wasps and bees. I think the study of social insects might actualy have its own title but entomology seems as good as any.

Science Fiction
I love science fiction, despite how geeky it is. I like all the books by Harry Harrison, Dune (novel) by Frank Herbert, Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham, Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood, Brave new world by Aldous Huxley, all the Isaac Asimov books, and loads more that I can't be bothered to remember. As far a scince fiction films go I like all the good ones like the first three Alien (film series) and Star Wars, but I also like the cool rubbish ones like the Flash Gordon (film), Predator (film) and Starship Troopers (film). There are also some science fiction TV shows I like, like Futurama and Doctor Who.

Sculling
I row for the Hinksey Sculling School, which is a charity rowing fund which lets people other than rich private school children do rowing. I've been rowing since 2003 and am realy injoying it, even if I don't win many races.
