About Me
Craig Robertson, 21, New Zealand.
Straightedge.
Vegetarian.
Pictures of me can be found here.
I listen to a lot of music. I watch too much TV.
I have finished my Arts degree in Politics and Film. I am currently finishing off my law degree at the University of Auckland.
Here’s a link to my unfinished book. I started it about 3 years ago but have never had the heart or energy to complete it. It’s 60,000 words so far. This is only an extract.
I thought I’d expand this “About” section:
Hi, here’s a description of me and my life.
First of all, I like TV. That may be obvious from my blog. I don’t enjoy movies that much because one of my degrees is in film theory and it has ruined films for me. But it hasn’t ruined TV. That’s weird.
Besides watching TV, I sometimes play guitar and I sometimes write. I have many unfinished songs and a half-written book. The rest of my free time I spend taking photos. Photography is probably my one true passion – taking photos is cathartic and an outlet for creativity. I need that outlet, since I am at Uni most days studying. Law takes up a lot of time.
I go to church as often as I can – sometimes 2 or 3 times a week. It’s the place where I feel home. I wouldn’t be here without God or the church and its lovely people. I have much to be thankful for. I have my struggles, but I’ll make it through. Faith, hope and love conquer darkness.
If you are reading this, just know that you are lovely. There is a purpose to your life and you have gifts to offer the world – gifts of communication, creativity, empathy, leadership, wisdom, understanding. Everyone has something to offer the world.
And know that you are loved. Always. That may sound trite, but I assure you that you are. I love you. So there.
Peace be with you. Have a lovely day.
