Righto so let's start at the beginning shall we? My name's Tamsin (not Tamara...I always thought Tamara was a prettier name...) but call me Tam...or TimTam if you really want. I'm probably more insane then I'd ever really admit but really considering the people I spend my time around (family included), I'd probably be counted as borderline normal. I have one horryfingly fluffy cat whose probably the most lazy bugger you've ever met and who frequently performs hostile takeovers of both my bed and wardrobe, a little jack Russell whose probably under the impression he's a cat by now, a completely crazy little sister, a dictator for a mother...haha ok so perhaps that's a little steep but I'm pretty sure in the years they've been married, my fathers hair loss could be put down to her nagging. My brother's that rare figure that occasionally reappears from the depths of university life to bring home washing then go out again and do yet more drinking/partying (because it's not like they have parties at university now is it?). My gran and grandad are those types of old people who seriously just don't grow old, my grandad's decided that they're going to be the oldest couple to ever walk the whole of England (*sigh*) and visiting them usually means your feet are killing you by the end. I'm all kinds of mixed race (seriously, you know those questionnaire things with nationality on them? 'Other' is my best friend xD) but I guess if we're being simple I'm the most pathetically pale, freckly (I blame my dad!) with probably the tiniest hint of colour from my mum...and then that mad crazy hair (thanks mum!). So that was probably way too much detail and judging by that this is going to be VERY long but feel free to skip bits ;P
Oh and I forgot to say I'm from London (in England...obviously xD) and go to boarding school out in the countryside (that's not London xD). I love it even though it meant being away from my friends from primary school who are the maddest, craziest, most irritating but funny people you're ever likely to meet. Unfortunately I have an award winning (if you could ever win awards for these things...) number of crappy illnesses, the worst being my REALLY crappy immune system along with some various other things, most of which, by now I can't remember the proper names of. I 'faint' a lot (it's not actually fainting because fainting tends to be short and I can be unconscious for hours) and have spent the few last years in and out of hospital (like seriously, I could probably set up my own tests on my self by now), but last year it kind if reached a really crappy peak, went out shopping to Central London with my friends one time, fainted on a road (don't worry I didn't get run over xD) and then spent 6 months in hospital (with a broken arm too...). Either way, my friends are seriously amazing (both sets, the ones from school and from where I live) and really help me keep from turning into a self absorbed, irritatingly miserable pain in the arse.
So onto bigger and cherrier things! Interests, hobbies etc etc. Seriously, I don't know how anyone could live without music! So I'm really pretty open about all kinds (if you've got a band/song/artist you love, feel free to suggest) although my favourite genres alternative/indie/indie folky stuff. My obsession probably first started with my dad introducing me to The Clash (who are AMAZING!), from there I went to The Kinks, The Jam and then slowly moved into this century xP Most of the stuff I listen to is Brit rock/indie/alternative/whatever although I adore Kings of Leon and Paramore (still waiting for the new bloody albums though! There's only so many times you can play the bloody songs xD). So here's a basic list of my many lovers ;P:
Mumford & Sons Laura Marling The Pigeon Detectives Kate Nash The Wombats Kings of Leon Adele Pearl & The Puppets The Clash Arctic Monkeys Linkin Park Jamie T Two Door Cinema Club Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip (<-- These guys have amazing lyrics) The Fray Florence + The Machine (even if she has been played to death...) The Kooks 30 Seconds to Mars Eminem Jimmi Eat World Rob the Rich
Then the songs that I love from the artists I'm not all that crazy about...
Toothpaste Kisses - The Maccabees (AMAZING SONG!) Messes of Men - mewithoutyou End of the Movie - Stornoway 5 Years Time - Noah & The Whale
Ok because this list could probably go on for ages, I'll stop while I'm still ahead! I love singing myself although I'd never want to do anything with it, I love acting too and movies and books and I've probably been writing since before I could even do so and make sense (...if that makes sense xD). I would really love to be a huge best selling writer (but seriously, what writer doesn't?) and although clichéd JK Rowling seriously really is a huge inspiration to me, like usually they skip out the whole 'oh yeah, I got rejected a gazillion times' but she doesn't and now she's like some billionaire! So anyway, I've been writing for ages and when I've finished I really hope one day to get published...I have a long way to go though, at the moment it's 380 something pages and it's nowhere near being finished...the thought does scare me but I like to think that someday it could possibly a film...a good film though...where I can say 'Idiot! That's not right!' and be a general pain in the arse xD.
Anyway, I think I'm going to stop now, before this gets any longer, feel free to comment, ask questions...whatever floats your boat.

Yeah xD I actually asked my parents to rename me either Delilah, Iris or Frankie for my 10th birthday but they sadly refused... XD, I really hate it when people call me by my full name.
