    Taken on the last night before I moved to Southampton to start my university education, we (me [on the left], my dad, my brother Adam, my nan, and my best mate Matt [on the right]) went to Pizza Hut in my hometown (RIP Pizza Hut Aldershot).

    I'm currently studying Writing Contemporary Fiction at Solent University. Current project? Robo-Pope. I'm not kidding.

    I probably need to shave but meh. Anyway, yes, my first proper photo taken especially for Dailybooth instead of me just uploading a picture from months ago just to tide it over for a bit :P

    Gaslight Anthem - amazing band. The '59 Sound is one of my favourite albums now, there isn't a track I don't like. It's just so damn incredible. The Backseat's my favourite track at the moment, but it varies. I change my mind a lot.

    Might nakedbooth it tomorrow. Aren't you all lucky people?

    This was actually from a few months ago, late March I think. I met Fightstar, my favourite band ever.

    I look like I'm in love with Charlie Simpson in this picture. I'm not*.

    *much.

David is a 21 year old male from United Kingdom.

About

I'm a student of Writing Contemporary Fiction at Southampton Solent University, with views to be a writer of both novels and screenplays, with a huge love of film. Lived in Aldershot for 18 years but I now consider Southampton to be my new hometown as I've moved down there for studies, as well as the fact it's just overall a better place to live. Aldershot's just boring.

Achievements... I was in a Funeral for a Friend music video (Waterfront Dance Club). Did OK-ish at GCSE, even more ish at A-Levels, but obviously not so atrociously because, as I said, I'm at university now. I love to travel, I love to visit the cinema. Sadly currently unemployed which means I can't do either travel or visit the cinema.

Television

Mostly comedy shows, Mock The Week, Have I Got News, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, as well as sitcoms like Spaced, Black Books, Blackadder and Fawlty Towers. I'm also a fan of Monty Python and The Office (preferably the American version, mostly as Ricky Gervais is just plain getting too big for his boots now). Total Wipeout would be a guilty favourite, except I see no reason to be guilty for liking it., I'm also a fan of Monk, House and Law and Order.
