I won't put up the whole thing, but the main questions. My answers seem a bit mundane, but I'm not about to become someone I'm not for a lame 15 minutes of fame. They either take me as I am or not. I'm guessing not
WHAT ARE YOU MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT IN LIFE AND WHY? I'd like to say my Girlfriend and Family. This however is not only obvious, it's boring and predictable. Personally what drives me day to day is the ability to be quick-witted and humorous. I wouldn't say I'm the life and soul of the party but I do like to think people are keen to be in my company and that I tend to bring a giggle to otherwise dull or tense moments.
I suppose what I'm trying to get across in a pointlessly romantic way, is that I love making people laugh. I would say my sense of humour and ability to react to situations defines me. I can assure you I don't talk like I type, and that if you'd asked me that question on the phone, you'd have got 'being funny' as an answer..
TELL US A SECRET ABOUT YOU:
When I was 14, I appeared on an ITV show called 'Cyber.Cafe' where I was introduced to my American internet girlfriend that I'd never seen or met before. Turns out she wasn't a paedophile and was actually a pretty 15 year old American girl and the show had secretly flown her and her parents over to the UK. First girl I ever kissed too. Pretty much the only case in history where two people met online and one wasn't a sex offender, mentally ill or generally unsuitable for modern society. I say that, it turns out that she's now a 27 year old lesbian living with a women pushing 50 in Florida. But at the time she was pretty straightforward, luckily.
Although that might not sound like a secret, believe me – I don't advertise it!
WHY WOULD YOU MAKE A GOOD BIG BROTHER HOUSEMATE?
I've thought about this a fair bit as it's not something that I'd normally throw myself into. I'm not your usual 'OMG I well want 2 b famus, Ppl tink I iz gorgus and I'd do nethink BB wants me 2' person that appears to comment on the Big Brother website. I'm almost the anti-housemate. I'm not Gay, nor transsexual or a hermaphrodite (mores the pity). I have no faith, I've never killed anyone or have any particularly questionable background. I do hold some pretty strong views on things and I'm a pacifist (although not when it comes to shooting Nazis in videogames.) In terms of appearance I'm not flamboyant and I'm overweight. I'm certainly not going to be getting my **** out in Heat magazine. Well, never say never.
Basically, I'm not going to easily slot into an 'controversial' role designed to cause rifts in the house.
What I am, is good at reading people, dealing with social situations and (and this makes me cringe because it makes me sound like David Brent) I'm funny. Often inappropriately although luckily for you, I'm not about to become a racist.
I'm a geek, I love my videogames, I love movies, I love comedy and I love people. The sheer potential entertainment for me of something like Big Brother would be incredible to experience first hand. I think I could safely say that I could be one very memorable housemate. Hopefully for the right reasons. That isn't too easy to put across in words – I'm just not your standard viewer, or indeed, housemate. If you want someone a little less predictable that previous series' then I'd be a good choice I think.
To quote comment on Facebook 'I'd watch that terrible programme if you were selected.' Although hopefully I'd bring more than one extra viewer to Big Brother.
