welcome to my interests page, in here you will find all the things i enjoy doing. from activities
to hobbies. i will explain where and what i enjoy doing, and where possible give you links to my favourite
things. i have many interests and hobbies, to view an
interest or hobby in further detail, select it from the menu on
the right.
well even though i am doing a degree in computer science it
doesn't mean i am a geek! yes i enjoy computing
but as my friends will tell you i am not your conventional computer science student. i love going out and
meeting people (no dark rooms for me!), i love clubbing and socialising. i enjoy a lot of different
varieties
of music, from dance and cheese to indie and oldskool.
when i am not socialising, i enjoy movies, whether going to the cinema or at home i watch a variety
of films, my favourite are comedy, action and horror. i have an extensive dvd collection which covers most genres.
my local cinema is vue cinema.
as i am a cs student, i do a fair bit of computing, my favourite areas are website development, graphics and
programming. you can view my portfolio of programming and
web
design here.
i can program using the following languages:
Java
C
Visual Basic
Haskell
Pascal
my favourite aspect of computing is website design, i have developed many applications from games and chat rooms
to online forums. some of which can be viewed in my portfolio. i can go on
and on about web design, but i will not bore you, you can see my portfolio to see how passionate i am.
i can code website in the following languages:
JSP (java server pages)
ASP (active server pages)
HTML (hyper text markup language)
JavaScript
PHP (still learning)
in my spare time, i also like to build computers for friends,
whether it is from scratch or updating the hardware and software.
when i am not working on my computer i spend the rest of my time with my friends and girlfriend,
whether it is at home with a
bottle of wine, at the pub, cinema or on a night out. as you may have guessed i am quite an artistic person and another great hobby
of mine i photography. i love taking photographs when on holiday or on nights out with my friends. i created a
photo gallery to show you some of my favourite photos most of which were taken on holiday
this year, either in spain, canada or new york.
i am also a great lover of art, i have compiled some of my cartoons and
drawings for you to view in my art gallery.
my other passions are my car and my cat max. my car is a black renault megane CC convertable, which i cherish, as without it i would be lost. i
have been driving for 5 years and even though i am young with a new car i still have a clean license! my cat max has been with us
for about a year, he was a stray when my girlfriend who is a
veterinary nurse found him at work. i wanted him straight away as he is
the friendliest cat i have ever met!
well that covers most of my interests, if i have not covered them here, then you will find there elsewhere in my site!
