about simon
this page:
i didn't really want to do a bit about me... just put the link in to make the site complete, really. but i've had requests, so i thought i had better put something here. o.k. i'm 18 years old, about six foot seven (1.97 metres), have short, dark hair and brown eyes.
a-levels: i did chemistry (a), biology(a), physics(a) german(b) and general studies [aka general waste of time!](b) advanced levels
at college (grades there to save people from asking me all the time!), and that is when i set up this site.
favourite activities: cycling, swimming, free-climbing (rocks/cliffs), photography,running, walking, philosophising, reading, windsurfing, wave Surfing, scateboarding, and most of all, meeting interesting people.
i am particularly passionate about: watersports, climbing and other high-adrenaline activities, and photography.
a few photos: (for those who know me- i don't expect anyone else to be interested). they may take a while to load. in fact, some of them may not load at all! sorry.
for those of you who know who this is

duke of edinburgh gold practise expedition

and a picture from the actual gold expedition on arran

more pictures coming: to be honest, these are just a random few
pictures that friends have scanned in for their own use, and given me
a digital copy as it was my picture. i
am hoping to get some more photos on here, but i need a scanner first- too expensive for an impoverished student- and time to scan my vast collection.

i am sitting in girton college, cambridge, skipping lectures
as usual. i am enjoying studying medicine, despite the
intensity of the course here in cambridge. unfortunately i haven't much time for this site
anymore, although i may have a crack at it in the christmas holidays.
Well, good luck to all you guys doing a-levels. Did you realise that a-levels
is supposed to be the hardest time of your life. at least, if you do a
good few a-levels, they say uni is easier. unless you go to cambridge/oxford...
and of course not if you study medicine...
ciao for now,
simon

well life as a medic only gets harder. sociology exam in 2 weeks. holidays for revision only. am i enjoying life? well yes far too much of the time. however i always have so much work that i feel guilty the moment i do something else. i have however had another go at the website inbetween with replacing my worn out counter and guestbook with lovely new ones and putting the new address on a few search engines. ok i will get an hour's sleep now before i get up for dissection- i have been working on this site since 2 this morning so you better thank me- by not emailing me and signing my guestbook instead! it saves me a lot of time and effort.
keep it up, chucks,
simon
