    Oliver Braid. My favourite colour is green.'s Interests
GeneralI really am interested in making things, but often my interest doesn't manifest itself. I like thinking about making drawings or writing books, I enjoy it so much I wouldn't want to spoil it by actually making a drawing or writing a book. I like practical lifestyles, aesthetes and autofacts. To a lesser degree I think eccentrics are exciting too, but not ones without any rationale behind their actions.

MoviesThe Naked Civil Servant I always enjoy. I actually have a big thing for Kill Bill. Oh and Batman Returns. On a cheesier note, Death Becomes Her is pretty hot.
TelevisionAnything with face to face confrontations. Nothing with brave children awards. Also a penchant for Bad Girls.

About me:
I am Oliver, I'm 22. I work in some galleries around liverpool. I am quite un co-oridnated and would at best describe my appearance as wonky. I really like it when people go on The Trisha Goddard Show and have the audacity to call her 'Trish' like they've known her for years. I like nothing better than a luxurious wallow in indifference. I'd really like Barunka O'Shaughnessy to be one of my Myspace friends, unfortunately she doesn't have an account.

Name:Oliver James Braid
Birthday:21st June 1984
Birthplace:Birmingham
Current Location:Bewdley. Via Liverpool.
Eye Color:Browney hazel
Hair Color:Brown
Height:I think five eleven.
Right Handed or Left Handed:Right
Your Heritage:Gloucester Birmingham Mix
The Shoes You Wore Today:I don't think I wore shoes all day
Your Weakness:Confused men, money, charm.
Your Fears:Cold savoury foodstuffs, they make me uncomfatable. And cats.
Your Perfect Pizza:Bolognaise
Goal You Would Like To Achieve This Year:7 drawings, 2 essays.
Your Most Overused Phrase On an instant messenger:Whenever i'm bored i over use sexual aggressiveness. It's not cool but sometimes i've already pressed send before i know i've done it.
Thoughts First Waking Up:Day plan.
Your Best Physical Feature:I like my boggly eyes. I like my hands but propbably just cus i see them the most.
Your Bedtime:Ideally 12, usually 2.
Your Most Missed Memory: Bailiffs Howse Lock-ins circa 2002/2003 and every party i went to in 2001
Pepsi or Coke:I like coke more. Pepsi always seems a bit flat.
MacDonalds or Burger King:I really really enjoy Macdonalds. More so now that everyone thinks it's even naughtier than before.
Single or Group Dates:I don't know about dates. I prefer one to one in almost every situation though.
Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea:I'm indifferent to iced tea of any genre if i'm honest.
Chocolate or Vanilla:I think vanilla is nicer. It's more refreshing. But i always opt for chocolate.
Cappuccino or Coffee:Either really, but i think just coffee. I don't know if this is true or not, but i imagine you get more fluid with just the original.
Do you Smoke:Yes.
Do you Swear:Yes. I'd like to learn to be more gentlemanly though and not do. It's hard to stop once you start. Sometimes I must sound like a char.
Do you Sing:So much so. I used to think I sounded lovely, but recently i've realised it's just my voice blending with the song. Also a friend told me I sound like a reedy old lady. Although that is sort of cool.
Do you Shower Daily:Yes. Ever since I been about 12. It's almost a compulsion. If i dont wash then i cant put new clothes on. If i dont wash then i go out in jim jams all day. Else i feel itchy.
Have you Been in Love:Only in its more exciting and dramatically unrequited form.
Do you want to go to College:Ive been but i hopefully will go back a few more times. I think education is one of my only hobbies.
Do you want to get Married:I don't think so but i wouldnt want to make a definate decision.
Do you believe in yourself:Yeah millions, but that doesnt mean there aren't things i still want to tweak.
Do you get Motion Sickness:Only if i'm reading something i don't understand in a car. I'm good in trains and planes. Boats can be tricky, depending on their quality.
Do you think you are Attractive:I think I go through stages.
Are you a Health Freak:No i think mostly that all of that is a waste of time. It's a good idea to be dirty to a degree because it builds up your natural resistances.
Do you get along with your Parents:Mostly, it's sort of situation dependant. But we get on even more when i dont live at home - i believe this is a universal truth.
Do you like Thunderstorms:Yes.
Do you play an Instrument:Well i have a legacy of failed instruments behind me, out of them all i have only really got the four holed occarina - and even then it is at the christmas carol level.
In the past month have you Drank Alcohol:Yes. Small amounts of merlot served in big glasses.
In the past month have you Smoked:
In the past month have you been on Drugs:Yes, but nothing too contraversial.
In the past month have you gone on a Date:No, although i do have a secret longing to live (if only for a month) that sex and the city lifestyle where those events do occur, and often end up becoming campfire anecdotes.
In the past month have you gone to a Mall:I may be going to one tommorow actually.
In the past month have you eaten a box of Oreos:Not a box but two small packets. I ate them in the street because i was hungry and later regretted it because they are so much better with milk.
In the past month have you eaten Sushi:No.
In the past month have you been on Stage:No but today i was pretending my living room was a stage set, if that counts. I had a free hour.
In the past month have you been Dumped:No.
In the past month have you gone Skinny Dipping:No.
In the past month have you Stolen Anything:No. Well some clotted cream fudge and some red wine but they were off my mum so they aren't really that daring.
Ever been Drunk:Yes.
Ever been called a Tease:No.
Ever been Beaten up:No. I have been spat on when i was younger and stuff but i've always been too reserved to do anything about it. I'm not really the fighting type. Often people in fights dont look very nice.
Ever Shoplifted:Only small things when i was teenage.
How do you want to Die:Well, suicide can be very stylish. I'd like to die with good last words.
What do you want to be when you Grow Up:An autofact.
What country would you most like to Visit:Well i don't ever think about things like that. Wherever i am i never notice any difference. Some people may think thats ignorant, but my indifference isn't by choice. It is just something i have noticed about myself.
In a Boy/Girl..
Favourite Eye Color:Indifferent.
Favourite Hair Color:Indifferent.
Short or Long Hair:Mostly short.
Height:Around mine?
Weight:Indifferent.
Best Clothing Style:The perfect one for their personality.

Number of CDs I own:A lot, but i don't know exactly and i'm a terrible estimator.

Number of Tattoos:One.
Number of things in my Past I Regret:I'd like to say none, but maybe just the one.

Who I'd like to meet:
Yvonne Atkins from Bad Girls. If she was real, and i was a bit more scary, and we were on good terms. And Nadine Baggott she can lie on television like no one I know. Anyone who is middle aged, from middle America and still has a creepy Myspace profile. Especially if you have a picture of yourself from 1994, when you were in a prom, and it's up for display on the aforementioned profile. You are my favourite genre of the myspace member subculture, so please add me if this is you, I want to collect you all.
