bored cool great interested met music people relate seemed though
But what's great about working with Will is that I was so bored of working with people who seemed to be much more interested in what was cool or fashionable. Will is very open-minded and even though he's classically trained, he's the only person I've ever met that I feel I can relate to musically. He understands how I think about music and vice-versa.

I hated my teachers because I knew they didn't care, and I knew they had no control over me, so I hated them even more.
absolutely love time
I try to read as much as I can - all the time, really. And I absolutely love going to the cinema, especially during the day.
I don't think that just because you go on stage you are an exhibitionist.
either hit odd sugar
I have strange blood sugar levels. I get very odd if I don't eat. I either want to hit someone, cry, or fall asleep.
