Just wanted to say thank you for reminding me about Maslow's hierarchy of needs (I read one of your replies on someone's thread ) I learnt about it in first year of uni, but forgot about it

About

About me

Hi there!

I'm Adam (Adam the Fish, formerly Rachael98), and I like chocolate.

Also, I'm a Live Help Operator (since 08/10/12) here as well as being an Article Editor, a member of the Social Networking Team and a Forum Moderator for the Why Me? forum.
I've now been a member of TeenHelp for two years - it doesn't sound much when others have been around since around when I was born, but it's a fair milestone for me!

I've just finished school - looking forward to Sixth Form! - and I'm always around to talk. If you ever want a chat, to rant or someone to talk to, send me a visitor or private message. I always get back to them pretty quickly.

I realise that I'm incredibly bad at writing informative "About Me"s, so if you ever have any questions about what I'm going on about, ask me. I only bite if I'm incredibly hungry.

~Adam

Interests

Hobbies

Internet-ing.
Talking to people!
Making websites.

Being a generally helpful-ish person. Ish.

Music

Personally, I sing...or did, until puberty started messing around with my voice. Now I have half-sing, and half-croak (RSCM VfL Red Level, Alto) and play:
Piano (ABRSM G8)
[Any other keyboard-related instrument]
Ukulele
Recorder
Most things.

I like many styles!
I enjoy Tim Minchin and Imagine Dragons among many artists.

Movies

Comedy, generally.

Johnny English is great, and Mrs. Doubtfire is also a must.
I enjoyed The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel a lot, too.
My Hunger Games obsession is also manifested in film form!

Finally, Donnie Darko. Who doesn't like psychology thrillers?

Television

Sherlock.

I dislike television (mostly).

The most useful thing on there is BBC News.
Although I admit A Touch of Frost was excellent.
OK, and Miranda. And HIGNFY. And Watchdog. Plus TBBT. And QI. And New Tricks. But other than that...

Games

The Sims 3 and SimCity. But OpenTTD is better. Also looking forward to TS4, if my poor old laptop is going to be up to it.
^^^ See, technology goes first.
Monopoly.
And Contraband - quite an old game, but it involves cheating, lying and deception, so it's fun.

To family and friends, I'm notoriously bad at games; if there's a winner, and therefore a loser, I'm always the latter.

Books

Harry Potter.
CHERUB/Henderson's Boys.
Hunger Games.
Divergent/Insurgent.

I might also find some more adult books at some point which I like as much as Harry Potter.
I do like Minette Walters a lot.

Sports

Swimming.
Cycling.
Walking to school.

'tis it.

Heroes

Everyone at TeenHelp is so brave, caring and brilliant, it's the most fantastic place to be.

Favorite quotes

"Everything will be alright in the end; if everything is not yet alright, then it is not yet the end" --The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

"The purpose of life is a life of purpose" --Robert Byrne

"Join the Light Side - Dark Side's too Mainstream!" --My Friend

"The education system is wrong, generally. The only things we are taught are to pass exams. Especially in science. It's literally everything we are, but we don't understand the function of it and aren't taught it, except for in a hypothetical situation to get a few marks. 'I should remember to learn things by heart and not to think for myself.'" --My friend again.

"I don't care what you think, or what other people do. I believe what I want and I don't care if you don't believe the same. I'm probably not right, but neither is anyone else." --That friend. Again.

"Just because you find that life's not fair,
Doesn't mean you just have to grin and bear it,
If you always take it on the chin and bear it,
Nothing will change" --Tim Minchin (Naughty - Matilda the Musical)

"Close enough" --The Interwebs

"can see why you help people...I LOVE YOU ADAM THANK YOU SO MUCH" --An actual person who I actually know and actually really helped. :D

"You tell me exactly what you want, and I will very carefully explain to you why it cannot be.' --Simeon, GTA V

"The people who mind do not matter; the people who matter do not mind"

Other interests

Generally being sarcastic and cynical.
I try not to bring too much of that online, though. Because doing Live Help is the best thing ever.
Also, I'm interested in Psychology. I wish my school would teach it...

Posted in The Bucket List, Achieved Goals, Average Timescale

Well...not really my target, but my friend Ellie has decided that I have to have a girlfriend by the time I'm 16, which gives me exactly 1 year and 1 month from today.

Item #: 5
Name: Le gf
Set: 02/10/13
Achieved: 18/11/13
Timescale: 1 year
Description: Well, thanks...

This would probably be fine, but when I went on my school trip (yay!) just under a week ago, the bus driver even tried setting me up with someone. Even he failed. :P...

Posted in The Bucket List, Average Timescale

Perhaps not the most exciting item I'll ever have on my list, but something I'd like to work towards nevertheless.

Item #: 3

Get a Job!

Posted in The Bucket List, Short-Term Goals, Overrun Goals, Achieved Goals

Because I should take up potential income when there are other people who probably actually need it more than I do!
(because I'm a horrible person. Deal with it...

)

Like every piss-poor person in the country doesn't want one.

Posted in The Bucket List, Long-Term Goals, Lifetime Ambitions

Hooray for my first proper Bucket List item!

And (surprise, surprise), I reckon it's going to be one of the least achievable.

Item #: 1
Name: Visit the Maldives
Set: 09/06/13
Timescale: Long-Term Goals / Lifetime Ambitions (3 years - Death)
Description: Take a holiday to a Maldivian Island.

I've always wanted to be a little more adventurous in my holidays - particularly now I go to secondary school and hear of the most wonderful...
