About Me: Hi, I'm Suze. I'm 25 and read and write avidly. Aside from writing and writing, I enjoy cross stitching, attending rock gigs (local and national), watching movies and playing my guitar.
I love writing short stories and am currently working on two novels. I have a passion for history, long haired guitarists, rock music, bags, Single Malt Scotch, Converse All-Stars, Scotland and the Scots, chocolate, red wine and pizza.
This Year: 2008 has been a year of ups and downs for me, but so far I've run the Race for Life back in June and it was a fantastic experience. I am not a runner by any stretch of the imagination and I can hardly be considered sporty, but I took part to raise money in memory of my uncle. I managed to raise about £200 which was matched by my firm to create a decent £500. It was such an amazing experience to be a part of and I thoroughly enjoyed myself completing the 5k in just under 45 minutes which I thought was pretty good going! I've also started learning to play the guitar and have a goregous Aria Parlour accoustic. I changed my job role back in August and now work as a Learning & Development Assistant, helping to organise and run courses for lawyers. I love my job even if it does keep me very busy.
