About Adam

[Adam]
Me asleep in my home-made hammock.

Hi, i'm Adam. i'm 28 years old, (10257 days old and counting). A lot of people think i'm a bit weird, these comments are completely unfounded as this website clearly shows. i would admit to having a somewhat strange sense of homour. The recurring comment i receive is usually along the lines of "you're a freak, but not in a bad way."

[Self portrait, age 6]
Self portrait, age 6. No, i was never any good at art

i would like to think that i'm a down-to-earth, honest and kind person. i'm a calm person and don't get stressed by much, i figure life is too short to worry about anything too much. i'm a bit quiet and often very shy with people at first. i'm very indecisive about most things, i overcome this flaw by not planning anything too far ahead, i just take life as it comes.

i generally enjoy life. i like spending time with friends, cooking, listening to music, watching films, taking photos, reading, attempting to be artistic, and of course playing around at designing websites. My favourite colour is purple.

i would like to point out that i am not gay, (well 15% gay according to the spark's gay test). A lot of people assume that i'm gay, i don't know why, i guess it's because i wear tight t-shirts, obsess about my appearance, and have quite a few feminine traits.

i'm vegetarian for no particular reason other than i don't like meat or mass slaughter. No my parents aren't vegetarian, and it is no reflection on my sexuality.

What i've done with my life so far

Hmmm, nothing significant. i've been in education since the age of 4. i've just finished a four year Masters degree in software engineering and i'm starting a full time job in Manchester in a few weeks time.

Where

i lived in Huddersfield until i was 18, when i moved away to University in York. i've lived in Manchester in the summers of 2001 and 2002 where i had full time student internships with Thales.

i've only been abroad a few of times: USA, Turkey, France, Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, USA. i hope to travel a lot more once i have the money to do so! Within the UK i've been all round Scotland, Wales, the Orkney Isles, the Shetland Isles, the Lake district, Northumberland, and the Peak district.
