all the world's a stage...
I'm a Computer Science undergraduate in my final year studying at Reading University. I like music, movies, photography, reading and if I can ever get around to it, writing. Also a fan of horror, sci-fi and fantasy so there's plenty of re/blogging on those areas.

Many tweaks to this and web presence in general in the pipeline... when I get around to it.

Last night I got back to doing something which, regretfullly, I’ve not done in ages. Something somehow always got in the way. Maybe I’ve managed to get into the right mindset again.
I’m reading for pleasure again. If I get into the routine of reading a bit every night for a bit before bed then I can keep this up.
Maybe it’s the effect of living in the suburbs (it’s so quiet!).

I enjoy vampire fiction in general but none of that Twilight glittering vampires nonsense please! A while ago I set myself the challenge of reading, in order, all 10 of Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles. It’s difficult because if I stop for long enough in the middle of a book I must start that book all over again. Starting with book 2, The Vampire Lestat, this time. The first I’ve read once entirely and a few times partially. Besides, I like the second book more than the first anyway.
Speaking of which, there’ve been two film portrayals of Lestat de Lioncourt (that I know of), Tom Cruise in Interview of the Vampire and Stuart Townsend in Queen of the Damned. I liked Townsend’s portrayal more but there’s rumoured (for about two years now) to be a third: this time by Robert Downey Jr of Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes fame. I’m really looking forward to it because from what I’ve seen of the actor, I think he could pull it off.
