A bit more detail
So, this is me jibbering on about me for people who are actually interested haha. So hey guys, it’s Vikki here! If you’re reading this then you want to get to know about me, and I’m honoured. So what do you want to know?
I have lived in West Yorkshire all my life. However, when I’m older I hope to live in London; I want to be Prime Minister xD Haha I know that that’s ambitious but it would be amazing if one day I could live in Downing Street. If not, I would be happy being a local MP somewhere in West Yorkshire, because it is beautiful here. I love the architecture in Leeds, the museums and the beauty of the countryside. I love living in Yorkshire and I’d be happy to spend the rest of my life here.
I’ve been a goth since late 2006. It was quite a natural thing really: I was eleven years old and I’d known for about two-three years that I didn’t really fit in properly. I was bullied a lot and I strived to be like the popular kids because I just wanted a friend - then when I met Freya I realised I didn’t have to be like the popular kids to have friends, I just had to be me. About the same time I began to move away from tracksuits and all the pink tops my mum liked me to wear and become interested in darker, Gothic clothing. I think because it was at the same time my Mum started letting me wear what I wanted that I had the freedom to move into Gothic fashion. In addition to this, Freya began to introduce me to new music (or new to me) such as The Cure and Led Zeppelin. My mum prefers bands like Pet Shop Boys, Duran Duran and Savage Garden, whereas my dad has been deaf since he was four years old, so never really interested in music. This meant that when I was younger, I listened to what everyone else did - Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue and Busted. I adored Busted because of the guitars. I think my love of guitar players probably started with Busted; the first poster I ever bought was a Busted one. When Freya introduced me to The Cure I listened to them non-stop for a year. Then I began to look at other music in similar genres. Then I met Robbie and he introduced me to a whole new world of incredible music. As much as I detest him, I will always be grateful to him for that.
At the moment, my ambition career-wise is to be a politician, but it hasn’t always been that way. When I was very young I wanted to be a musician. I wasn’t that bad a singer (although I am now horrific lol), and I wanted to learn violin or guitar. But my parents could never afford music lessons or anything like that. I played recorder for three years until 2005 when I gave up on music. A little before this, I’d thought about acting. 2003-4 were two of the worst years that I got bullied. I had PVA glue poured in my hair, dragged feet first down the grassy hill that was part of our playground, had my underwear stolen at the swimming baths - the list goes on. I felt persecuted all the time and I suppose it was at this time my depression really began to show, although it wouldn’t be diagnosed for another four years. To make me feel better I would often escape to another reality inside my head. And I enjoyed it. So I began to want to be an actress and that is why I study GCSE Drama. However, since I became a teenager I’ve begun to appreciate my academic ability more; I am academically the most intelligent girl in my year group at Rodillian. I went through a few stages of wanting to go into teaching or journalism, and these are both still options for me, but when I was 13-14 years old my interest for politics was ignited. So politics is the path I want to follow.
Another passion of mine, as you can guess from the journalism, is writing. I’ve enjoyed writing since I was 6 years old and I can remember being 8 years old and planning novels I would write. I am not an especially gifted writer, but it is something I enjoy doing in my spare time. At AS Level, next year, I am studying English Language and English Literature. Writing is in my blood; my grandfather is a published author. I am really proud of him, even if he is a grumpy old man haha. I love him, but he lives quite far away so I only get to see him once or twice a year. If you are interested in any of my writing I do have a poetry page. As I say, it’s nothing special, but you’re more than welcome to check it out.
One of my true passions is History. It is my favourite subjecy at GCSE and I can’t wait to do it at A Level. I am possibly going to do a degree in History. The whole subject, it might be a lot of work, and it is difficult memorising all the dates, but fucking hell it is so fascinating. I love looking into the past. Not my personal past because I find that boring; we were all normal, working class people. But British history is one of the most amazing tapestries to put together, thread by thread, from the Norman conquest, to the Vikings, to the artists and geniuses. We have such a culturally rich history, and that is one of the main reasons that I am proud to be British.
I guess it is time to talk about Motley Crue lol. I know a lot of you follow me because of my love for Crue. I don’t know where to begin. I adore them so much. Everything about them. I love the styles over the eras - especially Shout at the Devil; I love all the leather and studs etc. The music is so raw and dirty, I love it. My favourite album is probably Saints of Los Angeles because I like seeing them return to just how great they can be, I like how it tells the Motley story, and I guess it’s my generations’ Motley album; when New Tattoo came out I was 5. However, it was also composed by DJ Ashba and James Michaels, so I can see why a lot of people say it isn’t true Motley Crue. But, you could say that about Dr Feelgood. If Motley Crue are all about drugs, is an album they did sober and clean a true Motley album? To me, that doesn’t matter. It’s still Vinnie’s vocals, Tommy on drums, Nikki on bass, Mick ignoring any physical pain and playing incredible guitar. It’s still Motley Crue.
I’ll shut up now :) I’m rambling on, and I doubt anyone will ever read all of this. If you have, then thankyou. You now know me better than any other person.
