Philippa Elizabeth Simpson. Born 22/08/85. From Darlington, England. Studying English and Politics at Glamorgan University (1st year).

I like going to concerts, second hand books, drinking tea, collecting vinyl, marmite on crumpets, charity shops, wearing lots of polka dots/stripes, the Shipping Forecast (on Radio 4) & Prime Minsters Quesions (perhaps maybe a little bit too much!).

For my ideal job (which im still quite undecided on at the moment) I would like to work in something related to Politics. Im currently looking into the idea of training to become a civil servant. Although if not directly involved in Politics I would like to going into reporting it as a Journalist, ideally for the 'The Guardian' newspaper or if Andrew Marr step's down I would gladly take on his job! One other alternative is the publishing press, companies such as Bloomsbury or Penguin would be wonderful as they print many of my favourite authors. I would also like my (so far, unfinished!) novels published. Well I can dream for now I suppose.
